Doing some research and I came across this site that has lots of great info on making soft shackles, including a calculator.

Thanks for the info to this one.

Demostix has been pointing this site out repeatedly for a while. Some solid science to be found here.
But folks tend to ignore him
(sorry Demostix, could not resist, I'm needing to go to confession anyway)
You get folks' attention though, so it's good for you to bring it to the surface.

Thanks for the link I was looking for some different variations on the soft shackle for some upcoming projects.
I've made two different kinds of soft shakles that were featured on that site and have been using them in place of my regular carabiners on my tree straps. They work well and help cut a few grams.
That's funny, Grizz is right on, I almost posted the same link, found this thread while looking for the right place to post it smack-head.gif
