Materials;
About 6 feet of 5/16th inch Amsteal-Blue (green just to be different) when I do it over I'll use something smaller.
5/16th inch Fid.
Electrical tape.
Sharpie.
I used a scrap strand left over from the taper for the lock stitching.furbowski - 22-4-2011 at 04:59 AM
Nice one, love the color... it would look good on a las vegas tracksuit/wedding tuxedo.
Hope you're on a roller, that looks rough to think of feeding through a hook... ( the only strop flying I've done)WIllardTheGrey - 22-4-2011 at 05:01 AM
Its a hook but amsteal is so slick I'm hoping it will work.PHREERIDER - 22-4-2011 at 05:19 AM
excellent! if you add a roller it will be the last one you'll need for the rest of this decadeKamikuza - 22-4-2011 at 06:07 AM
LOL 13,000 pounds?
Nice work on the splice! WELDNGOD - 22-4-2011 at 06:19 AM
just a little overkill. I just use 3/16 dyneema open weave(no core) and just a simple eye splice and a few stitches to lock it. It is what I use on
my hotwire rig. You could pull a car w/ it! That will deffo last a while...indigo_wolf - 22-4-2011 at 07:47 AM
