    How big is the starter rope you are using? I have used several of Big Rich’s pull handles and I like them. I use a piece of 0.030″ MIG welding wire and poke the wire through the end of the rope. Put the rope in the middle of the 12-16″ long wire and bend the ends together and kind of flatten it to the sides of the rope. Poke the two MIG wire ends thru the hole in the handle. Hold the pull in one hand and grab the ends of the MIG wire with pliers and pull it thru. Works like a charm. I’m using #6 (3/16″ diameter) solid braid True Blue starter rope on everything from 3hp-25hp without an issue.
