## Continuous Line Method 

1. Take a piece of line used for the lower control line and cut a line equal to the B dimension in Figure A plus 12 inches. On this line, measure from one end 8 inches plus the C dimension from Figure A  and mark at that location. This will be the bottom of the brake loop. Mark the brake loop location according to Figure C .

2. Take another piece of the lower brake loop line approximately 12 inches long. Finger-trap the brake loop assembly according to Figure D . Make sure the ends are scissor cut and tapered. Bar tack or zigzag the assembly. [Figure E]

3. Measure and mark the C dimension from the bottom of the brake loop. Run the bitter end of the lower control line thru the eyes of two of the upper control lines and finger-trap the line back into itself. [Figure F] Adjust the finger-trap to allow for shrinkage. This completes the continuous line method of lower control line fabrication. 

## Non-continuous Line Method 

1. Take a piece of line used for the lower control line and cut it at the C dimension from Figure A  plus 12 inches. Mark at 6 inches from one end and finger-trap a loop .5–1 inch long as per Figure G .

2. Take a second piece of control line material and cut it to the D dimension from Figure A  plus 12 inches additional. Mark at 6 inches from one end. 

3. Finger-trap this line thru the loop at the end of the upper lower control line. Make sure there is a minimum of 4 inches finger-trapped in the line and that the lower loop is tight against the upper loop. 

4. Bar tack or zigzag the finger-trapped portions to secure them. [Figure H]
