What happened to the Matt Cornell Rope Saddle?

I can't imagine the margins were that good with the MRCS

Careful, man. Don't want to offend treestuff. They'll quit selling your gear.

 

[treebing]

not if the margins are good. but that was not a knock on tree stuff or the MCRS.

 

[SomethingWitty]

It just seemed to lend support to Brocky's thought, which was implying at least mildly deceptive or devious behavior on their part.
Maybe you've got it, though. If you make them enough money, it's a lot harder to offend someone enough to make them do something about it.

If they are the ones that had control of it I am sure that the margins are better then most. The reason to bring your own stuff to the table is margins.

Wouldn't it be great if corporations, politicians and people in general, could just be honest about what they do and say. But that would affect the bottom line wouldn't it, so I guess we're back to square one.

I would like to see the math on it. its all the splices that would put a drag on things im thinking. there is a lot of labor and training involved in making an MCRS. the training involved to put one together would be a killer. much more than a sewn webbing harness. But I honestly don't know. I'm just speculation really on my part. But I imagine that money talks quite a lot louder than a heated facebook conversation.

I see no reason that sewn splices could not be used. Much faster. There is also room for a few other tweaks that would make it even better.

I know some people that are going to call you on that. Sewn eyes.

 

[DSMc]

... Sewn eyes.

Haha! True that.

What tweaks?

 

[DSMc]

What tweaks?

Nothing that could be done to the harness by a user as it is now. A remanufactured one though could be significantly improved while still retaining its best attributes.
