    I was contemplating the wear on the stitching itself.

    Sewn vs spliced eyes

    I don't reckon it would change the life span appreciably, unless I'm missing something?

    Rich, I saw a 1-minute plank in round 3 of the workout list above. Do you plank much?

    Sewn vs spliced eyes

    I’ve always spliced my own prusik cords, using double Brummels. I see many offered with seen eyes. Those of you that use them, how do they compare to spliced? What’s the lifespan compared to spliced eyes?

    Weld, let cool a bit, soak in penetrant. Heat draws it in. Tap tap tap a lot with a small hammer. Cool bolt completely to shrink. The best is a small impact gun with just a little trigger. In and out gently to break loose. Repeat as many times as necessary. The weld makes the bolt want to expand...

    50 k is awesome. I’m not a runner. It seems like every time I get to a point where I can get two to three miles in without feeling like I’m dying I get injured. Lower back issues, knee pains, dislocated ribs, and my favorite a broken toe. Today’s morning was up at 4:30 and in the garage by 5...

    I’ve had good luck welding a nut on a broken bolt if the broken bolt is at least flush. Drill the threads out of the nut first, that will give you a better weld. Let it cool to the touch before trying to remove it helps.

    Depends if the bolt has threads all the way up to the head that broke off. Take another bolt out to see.

    Working on that still. I catch myself procrastinating these things. It wasn’t that long ago I was slacking on my cold plunges and that bled over into everything else. My new philosophy is I need to at least start whatever it is I don’t want to do. Well once you start something it’s pretty easy...
