    Rope Wrench Tether on Sewn Eye?

    The hitch can be made to multitask, no tending pulleys, or other device needed, and eliminates the cost for spliced, or sewn eyes. The concept works with many friction hitches. An overhand stopper is shown, use what you consider a safe option.

    Right Rope products.

    It looked to me like they are selling name brand ropes, not something they have manufactured, saw a lot from Atlantic Braids.

    The necessity/importance of your primary rope contacting the ground?

    Just carry a bunch of runners and girth hitch a ladder to the ground, don’t over think it.

    Brummel question: 90 degree turn

    Do the locked brummel, then a short bury bringing the end out on the side of rope.

    No pulleys needed?

    Switching between SRS & MRS....

    The “Secret Weapon” is a way to ascend SRT and switch when aloft, a low friction ring could be used instead of the pulley for less weight.

    New HitchHikerXF

    I found the dogbone didn’t squeeze the rope as much when the crossed sections were in the back, the carabiner, or slic pin was doing most of the work.

    Double action snap on pinto pulley becket?

    The oval carabiner might counter act any outward pressure, the hitch cord diameter would determine how much.

    Question about HRC possible defect

    Is it possible the tuft could be pulled slight and cut off, might be a loose part of strand that doesn’t affect the integrity of the cover?

    Question about HRC possible defect

    Maybe see if you can get the fuzzy section of cover to milk past the possible bulge in the core. If there is no bulge in the core, it looks like too much of the Nomex, which could be tucked back under the cover. A bulge in the core might not be good, or correctable.

    10mm sirius and samson dynasorb

    It might also be so that the remaining strands are pulling the circumference of the cover equally, and not from just one side?

    10mm sirius and samson dynasorb

    I could never figure out why you need a specific tapering pattern for the cover tail on class I double braid splices?

    Sticht Hitch

    I haven’t found a way of adding something to the hitch to dissipate heat, only devices away from it, like figure 8s, belay tubes, carabiner for a Munter, etc. Another option are things directly below the hitch, the ATS with its horns gives multiply ways of adding friction without having to open...

    Sticht Hitch

    @Muggs, I tried that out, it worked pretty good a first, but started to bind up with use. The ring would move upward when hand tending to push the top wrap.

    Triple ring eye/ loop sling: Update - Half Brummel?

    Using the rebraid method with a fid and a half bury on double eye hitch cords, I found there was a loss of 40% of the cords break strength. The Tuck-Bury splice only loses around 2% for an end to end pull on a double eye, a loop tested at 1 1/2 the cords strength. Not a Mobius locked brummel...

    Vectran core, ice tail cover

    It was the polyester core and half of the cover that failed, and were replaced with the high modulus that have solved the problem. A look at the cores of the Beeline and HRC show they are braided differently, the longer the braids the stronger it is.
