Zartman Rigging Modern Splicing Handbook

This brief manual of splicing techniques was compiled as a textbook of sorts for a live splicing and ropework class at the International Yacht Restoration School in Newport.  While covering basic techniques in 3-strand and various solid-plait ropes, it goes into more depth with modern core-dependent ropes, 12-strand high-modulus ropes, and loops and strops, both plain and covered.  Anyone who wants to improve their Dyneema splicing game will find this a useful resource, and the DIY sailor will find everything here for doing any ropework on their boat.
