Holy! It's been a while since I've seen that. Curious if anyone every made one of these and used it in the field? Did it hold up? Any issues? I never actually got around to using mine up in a tree.That's what i was thinking as well.. the two headed..
I think Brock would be a better candidate to explain it though.. or possibly @Boomslang ... Is that his correct handle?
Here's a diagram i screenshotted a while back.

Bend Right Rigging Ring

Found the wider Arbpro rigging rings, was hoping they had a full radius like the Bend Right ring’s, but they have a flat section, about a half an inch. So its actual radius is smaller than a medium XRR.
The Arbpro has an approximate 17mm of radius, the medium XRR is 22mm, the small is 15mm.
I got the Arbpro ring and some of the 9.1 hitch cord, there was a few dollars more for taxes, and no additional charges for shipping. It only took two days to come from Italy also!

Bit late to the party on this one. But yes, Bend Right Rings are designed to be used for negative rigging with just one ring. The bend radius is 4:1 with a 9/16 rigging rope. As for sling options, you can have them splice with the double leg style. Alternatively, you can also just get any sling with a 12 inch eye and girth hitch the ring in. Keep in mind a girth hitch takes some of the strength from your sling.

Wow, where did you find that wooden one on the left? It's a blend of natural crotch and new era rigging!
That is a prototype of something to replace the much too small rings used on harness bridges. I made it from a hickory branch, and like your rings has a true full radius for the rope to run on. Still need to see if a tight fitting inner diameter would be better for holding a position.

What is the preferred sling diameter for the girth hitch application? @Muggs you said you have 3, what are your thoughts on sling dimensions?

The Bend Right Gen 2 will take up to a 3/4" / 19mm sling. The groove is 19mm wide by 16mm tall, so the Tenex will stick out a bit.

Posting this here for posterity. Bend-Right Deadeye sling splice. I pulled apart an older, well-worn sling to figure this out. This is identical to the professional one as far as I can tell. The colors on the green sling in the pictures look off because this was a lightly used ultra sling that I pulled apart, to re-use for this project. Hopefully this makes sense to others. I think most people just use Bend-Rights girth hitched on a large eye sling. I've done that before but I prefer this splice.

Yeah, think it's identical except for the measurements...
