    When I made my dynaglide whoopies I considered putting a plastic bead on the loop section to prevent this. BUT, I didn't have any on hand so didn't do it.
    Has anyone done this with success? Or could there be problems with this method?

    I just received a GrizzBridge with whoopies attached and that's exactly what he has done - a single bead on the adjustable loop. Works a treat!

    Hey Unk. Check your inbox.

    We can sort this without too much effort. Restring with a bead sounds like a good idea for my whoopies while we're at it!
    I dream of a better tomorrow, where chickens can cross the road and not be questioned about their motives.

    You can add small split rings to existing whoopies. I just keep the biner in the whoopie though.

    A small loop of string also works. Easy to add to existing whoopies.
