@castanea
I am fuzzy on the details.
Could you refresh me on the fiori-esque rings you looked into?

The Rings that Fiori Giorgio's videos on YouTube are almost 3X's the size of the X Ring. He took a 3/4" Tenex eye and doubled it back on itself creating a double girthed loop around the ring and there was still room for more rope. I'm guessing that the outer groove is almost 1 1/2-2" wide and the inner hole is close to 36-38mm, he passed 2 3/4" ropes past one another and they didn't touch at all. They're massive!

I started a thread on this ring at one time, and had a few good responses as to the usefulness of it, and the types of use shown in the video.

No problem. It does seem to have a lot of people interested in it, I'm surprised he doesn't have them on the market for others, or one of the other companies that already sell tings make one of similar size.

I sent an email to Giorgio Fiori last night and low and behold, i just happened to check my Facebook over coffee and got a reply regarding the Fiori Ring and an email to order the rings! Sometimes, all you have to do is ask! Giorgio said that
I.perron@elegage-hevea.com, can get or make the rings. The issue is I don't speak Italian! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

 

[NE Tree]

Hey Dave, I'm interested in a ring if you happen to figure it out, let me know.

 

[96coal449]

I'm in for a pair! All ears here.
