How long is a "fid length"

"Glenn Ashmore" wrote: And whose fid? Most splicing instructions say "measure x fid lengths" but seldom state it in inches or rope diameters. There are several makes and different lengths of each but there are less fid sizes than there are rope sizes so how would you define a "fid length"? The length of a "fid length" varies according to the diameter of the line being spliced. If you have the proper sized fid for the line yo wish to spice, the fid itself is the fid length. Bingo! Well put. |
