Attach tail of Rope A to fid.
Insert fid at Mark 2 of Rope B,
bring out past Mark 3, then
remove fid. When feeding
the fid through with the tail
attached, do not hold on to
the fid and try to milk the
slack back. Doing this will
cause the tapered end to
disconnect from the fid.
Hold on to the section
of the tapered end
right above the fid
to avoid this.
