A
After completing the first 3 tucks, remove 1/2 of the volume of the twisted yarns. Cut yarns from each
of the 6 strands near the taped ends and complete 3 more tucks with the reduced volume strands.
The strands are now
tucked into the braid of
the rope. 1 complete
tuck consists of passing
a strand over 1 strand
and under 2 strands.
The tucks proceed down
the same row of picks
straight down the body
of the rope.

Do 3 complete tucks for all 6 strands. Each strand is always tucked under the same
line of the braid so that the tucks progress straight down the body of the rope.

Remove the tape from the end
of the tail. Now smooth the rope
from the eye towards Mark 3, the
tail will disappear into the rope.
Smooth the rope to remove any
remaining slack. Check that the
6 routed strands are snug.

After completing the second set of 3 tucks, cut off the excess
material and tape the ends. Leave enough of an end protruding so
that it does not slip back into the rope when the rope is loaded.
