I recently spoke with a pretty experienced diver who jerry rigged a clip weight for me by using cave line which he tied into a bowline, then melted the ends into the knot itself.
Does everyone else do this too?
I understand melting the ends of the rope so it doesn't unwind, but he said it was even stronger to melt the ends to the knot itself. My concern is that wouldn't this also weaken the knot?
Thanks!
