Re: [RC] cotton rope reins - mjwest02

On the (sort of) subject of BRAIDING - anyone out there have any suggestions on braiding horse hair jewelry?   I have looked up several sites, but they haven't given me any new information.   Before I start removing hair from my girl's tail, I want to do it right!
 
Thanks - Mary

If your cotton rope reins are normal 3 strand twisted rope, it is easy to make new yourself. I have done so for 30 years. 
 
What you need to know is how to do an "eye" splice. There are lots of books that teach splicing. My old boy scout handbook does. I just Googled "eye splice" and found:
