Busted knuckles....but I got it!!

Ok,  I am well aware of the fact this pic is sideways.  But after huffing and fussing over this braid I seem to be a bit sideways myself!  We had some frayed sections of rope on our anchor chain and they were constantly getting hung up in the windlass.  So I wanted to change the rope and chain out. 
OF COURSE the kit has to come from West Marine with the wrong size chain on the right sized rope!!!  So off to YouTube I go to find a presentation about making this braided line.  This will be a skill I will never forget (Although I think I already forgot it from Boy Scouts once :)!
