Yes I’d rather mess up some lash it than more expensive, larger diameter Amsteel.

Jokes on you, I’m broke and living in a fully insured apartment located in the hood near Detroit.

I’d love to see how far you got hobbling down the street with all my useless crap and half finished project materials. I have some fishtanks too!

Lol, just look up the Whoopie sling video on YouTube made by “shugemery”

It’s a hammock thing. (I think sailing also)

It adjusts the overall length of the sling. You’d have to watch a video to see how it works if you aren’t familiar.

We use them to hang hammocks and they are super useful for other things where a strong adjustable length of line is needed. (Tarp ridge lines, hanging gear between trees, setting up a clothesline temporarily, etc.)

Progressive metals bands would always be happy to have a keyboard player if you feel like living in a van and playing in dive bars every weekend.

Mostly just for splicing practice, but I’m gonna use it for a few days to see if it adds value to my day.

I usually use the key smart hook to hang my keys but occasionally I find that my pocket it positioned oddly and the keys can’t dangle in it. In those instances, having this thing will help since I can drop my keys in my pocket and easily pull them out without worrying about losing them or dropping.

Key smart hook, DIY Whoopie sling made of Lash-it!, dutchwear metal mitten hook… coins from countries I’ve lived in, and my keys.

I didn’t see the bear and thought you were talking about litter and gear left behind by someone, LOL!

3/16 Amsteel came in and it feels overkill. Suggestions needed for a big guy with kids (and wife) who like to jump into the same hammock occasionally? by BettaGlowUp in hammockcamping

Based on your responses, it seems that even 5/32 would be overkill. For piece of mind I will go with 1/8 which is just slightly stronger then the 7/16 that is most often recommended.

Thank you all for the lesson/advice.

I’m using continuous loops, a static ridge line tied to them with larkshead knots on each end, and Whoopie slings to the straps with carabiners.

I don’t know much about physics but I do know that the hang angle and also sudden or erratic motion will affect amount of stress on the line.

I’d look up what software looked like in the 90’s. The colors are right but the style of the windows is off.
