Making your own Ropes

Do I wind both in RH direction when both are twisting ?
Yes. The switches are so constructed that both need to have the same stand. "I" for RH rope or "II" for LH cable.

I missed that. All the rope I’ve made so far I did not spin the wiel when I did the last wind with the Bok. And the ropes turning out awesome
The reason why the last part of the rope looks loose and why you needed to go to 13%.
