To preventunraveling of the strands the twine serving is again replaced onrope X at center of splice. The twine serving is then removedfrom rope Y and the strand 2 is unlayed, followed up and re-placed by strand 2 of rope X. The ends of these strands are leftprojecting out 16 in. from rope as described from strand i and i\The twine serving is again removed from rope X and strand 3 isunlayed, followed up and replaced by strand 3 or rope Y. Thisunlaying and replacing of strand 3 and 3 is stopped 5 feet fromthe juncture of strands i and i\ This operation is continued withthe remaining 6 strands stopping 5 feet short of the preceding set —25—.
