My first Monkey Fist

I've been trying to figure out how to tie one of these for awhile.  Couldn't see spending $50 for one from a catalogue when I knew I could do it myself.  Well...with the help of this great post here I did it.  Not perfect, but for my first try I'm happy.  I took Chris to the airport yesterday and then went in to Kona for "project" supplies.  Not sure I bought enough rope (I got 6') so had to make do with this smaller first attempt.
