I feel really good at 500 lbs or less. I have but hitched some big branches on it though!

Nice I missed that one. Perfect example of using a speedline. I use my figure 8 differently. Do you just configure it like that so you dont have to remove it from the sling. In rock climbing we would just stick the bight through and then flip it into the gate of the biner. it doesnt need to go...

Jack, how are the Maxim 5mm loop runners holding up? Like most cordage things I make, mine have all been cannibalized for this or that. I had a carabiner break (open gate) when a one of the slings got stuck under the tractor tire with biner on the bucket! Amazing that the biner broke before...

I kind of troll over there... I interject more to prove some of the more fanatical guys wrong then to actually contribute... although I do post a bit about worthwhile things every now and then Sent from my C771 using Tapatalk 2

I mostly just argue over there... this is much more my kind of place. I tried to register with bonner1040 over there three times, no luck so I used my business number... Jack, I meant good... sorry Sent from my C771 using Tapatalk 2

Goof stuff. I am trying to convert some of the guys on the Buzz... I used some of your pictures (with credit) since I couldnt get mine to load.

Still liking the Maxim Jack?

I have always found sterling products to be of the highest quality... I imagine that is similar to if not the same as the accessory cord in their rock climbing line off products, all of which are kernmantle and very soft and supple.. Sent from my C771 using Tapatalk 2

Looks good! And now it really happened :)

Jack? We know it is stiff, how did it work for you today? Get a chance to try it out? Did you configure any with the fixed biner and the loop? I really like the ability to basket choke or have a longer single line choker.

Stephen those look pretty small eh? I have been looking for a really small locker... TopNotch, Maxim = way better than webbing.

"Stow your climbline" I could have used that one the other day... Thanks for sharing Ger!

I have wanted to try those captive biners with the pin for quite a while.

Jack, one thing to note with the Maxim cord is that it is extremely stiff, more so than most other textiles I am familiar with. IMO this a benefit, it makes it stow really neat and gives it a predictable flip, the caveat is that you need to make sure your knots are tied, dressed, and set with a...

Ya better because without pics... ....it never happened!

Buy a bunch of it :) ! It is such handy stuff that you will immediately want more once you have utilized all of it... Did you see the Remote rigging thing we were talking about? I started another thread about it..

Did you see the hazard associated with loop runners and the Petzl String, something similar to the blue bandit? I posted it a while back, it may not apply since the biner is knotted to the sling in your case... however I am not familiar with the bull hitch. http://vimeo.com/4138205...

So Scott, Treesmith, and I have talked quite a bit about loop runners and they have popped up in different threads. I personally use them all the time for a myriad of tasks. I made some up a couple of months back and they have been working marvelously. I used Maxim 5mm tech cord, with one end...
