  1. Just because it's made of hemp doesn't mean you can smoke it.

    Try a ships chandlers , plenty about but I do not know London.

    Hemp or Sisal  is actually the best rope for spliceing and whipping [if you do that]. Best stick to 3 ply as that is the easiest.

    Don't forget if you use poly you will need to seal [melt] the ends of the strands to stop them fraying.

    Interesting subject. I didn't know people still did this.

    P.S plenty for sale on ebay.

    Nylon/Poly is not difficult to get , Farmers suppliers sell it and even hardwear / gardening stores


  2. You smoke too much rope already
