Looking to braid eyes in dock lines - MegaBraid II

[EDGEWATER]

Looking for a rigging house to braid eye loops on the end of a few dock lines.

New England Rope - 1/2" MegaBraid II.

Someplace on the MD Eastern Shore would be preferred.

Thanks -

check with a local commercial fishing/marine supply house...not West Marine, or the other weekend warrior marine suppliers... I'm talking the reel deal...Usually there's a leather neck that'll do it on the side for a few dollars each. Or check with a sailboat supply house...those guys know rope!

Wound up doing it myself. Pretty easy - I impressed myself.

.....I did that once. About 40 yrs ago.

Greetings: For what it's worth, there are several time-honored references available that give good directions on tying knots and making splices. I do my own line-work, using a book entitled CHAPMAN'S Nautical Guides, Knots, published by Hearst Marine Books in New York. It has excellent instructions and clear graphics throughout 192 pages.
