Safety rope/prussic knot

I was looking at a build along or some such thing a while back and it showed a fella building a climbing rope like he used for tree trimming. I have been through the old posts and I cannot find it now.
I am sitting home with a nasty head/chest cold and so I thought I would try and make a few safety ropes. Any help would be great.
Thanks

The link above is really good as well as:
http://tradgang.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=1;t=065711
Also:
http://www.geocities.com/safetreehunt/systems.html
Has a good testimonial and product although it is a bit more expensive than putting it together yourself.
