    You take the base-plate of prefabulated amulite, surmounted by a malleable logarithmic casing in such a way that the two spurving bearings were in a direct line with the pentametric fan. The latter consisted simply of six hydrocoptic marzelvanes, so fitted to the ambifacient lunar waneshaft that side fumbling was effectively prevented. The main winding was of the normal lotus-o-delta type placed in panendermic semiboloid slots in the stator, every seventh conductor being connected by a non-reversible tremie pipe to the differential girdlespring on the "up" end of the grammeters.

      And while wearing medium-weight leather globes... (I say "medium-weight" because I consider "heavy-weight" to be something like arc welding gauntlet type gloves and "light-weight" to be more like dress / driving gloves)
      I definitely would have lost that snap wring in the grass -- even without the gloves...

    Rigger by trade here.. great vid . Not to be that guy.. but that's not a Brummel. That splice will slip under slack. You need to weave the two tails into each other for a true Brummel. I would recommend you stitch it to seize it under slack in this configuration.

    I see this is 2 yrs old, I love the fairlead that I bought for my truck. I have a hidden winch on my 2018 F-150, and I wanted to preserve a clean look. I bought a DV8 Pocket Fairlead. Winch is 12,500 lbs, fairlead flat hook is rated at 20,000 lbs. Wish I could post pictures here, but after some trimming off of a new stainless grill cover, the end result was even nicer than what I expected.

    Awesome! Never had this process properly explained/demonstrated before. We run the exact rope/hook on our race trailer and it’s creating damage to the rope exactly as shown. Wish the hook shown would work with our racecar (using the factory tow point and its a small opening) really need to find a good hook solution and make a new loop end. ✌️

    • @timothyc4214
      @timothyc4214 9 місяців тому

      I don’t understand the hate. A regular hook is terrible. Having to leave a shackle on your bumper to hook your hook on is also terrible (now you have the winch line and a shackle out in the elements instead of in your recovery bag, it can get stolen, etc). A closed system with the small basic flatlink is better in every way and isn’t expensive. It sits flush on the fairlead. Creates a closed system with a D ring shackle. Easy and clean.

    First you take the dinglebop and push it through the grumbo, where the fleeb is rubbed against it. It's important that the fleeb is rubbed, because the fleeb has all of the fleeb juice.
    Then a Shlami shows up and he rubs it, and spits on it.
    Then you cut the fleeb. There's several hizzards in the way.
    The blaffs rub against the chumbles, and the plubus and grumbo are shaved away.
    That leaves you with a regular old plumbus!

    Hard coat anodizing can be done in a bunch of colors. There are plenty of other objects in aerospace, military and firearms that get other colors. M16s are almost black, they are hard coat anodized, aero does green, tan, blue, red etc.

      For type 1 and type 2 yes you can use tint. A type 3 (true hard anodized) will be either greenish for 3k series, grey for 5k series, almost black with 6k series, or dark blue black for 7k series aluminum.

    Re the forged hook, which absolute idiot would cut the eye when cutting - or disassembling) and resplicing (or clamping) cable / lines is always the preferred method...
    NB. Always maximise jargon to improve one's market position.
    Well - for real strength do a deep bury - stitched brummel splice - NB to brummel around a piece of hardware, one needs the free end to be released from the winch... A stitched deep bury is a one end affair...
    The "1:1" advice on minimum bend radius may need some proof to that pudding - It could be true with 12 strand woven rope, definitely not likely with higher weave count... ???.

    That rope was not spliced correctly from the factory. The tail is to short and isn't tapered enough. This is a major fail on the rope manufacture's side.

      The rope manufacturer didn’t splice it. They just sold the rope to the winch manufacturer. Jeeez. 🙄

    Do not make the eye splice this way. The tail should have gone through and not the end shown. Properly, when the tail isn't loose, the McDonald's brummel is the only way to lock the eye.
