Attach a fid to the end of the
tapered tail and bury it from
the entry point through the
rope to exit beyond Mark 3.
Pull the tail until Marks 1 and 2
meet. Leave the tail exposed.
The 3 remaining strands are now routed from the entry point at Mark 2
to the exit point. Each strand is routed separately, entering at the entry
point and exiting at its own exit point. Do not pull the strands up tight
yet. Leave slack at the entry point.
With all 6 strands routed and the tail buried, pull each of the 6 routed
strands to remove any slack, and make sure the rope is smooth and
tight at the entry point.
