    VIDEO: Marlinspike Hitch Alternate Method

    This is the same old MSH it always was it's just a different technique for tying it.

    Good luck,

    It's not procrastinating, its proactively delaying the implementation of the energy-intensive phase of the project until the enthusiasm factor is at its maximum effectiveness.

    Thanks, I was hoping that it would be easy to understand, you never know if it will be as clear to others as it is to yourself.

    If you could see my gear room you'd know I don't have much feng shui!

    Perfect timing, I just switched from an adjustable webbing suspension to a whoopie sling, to see which one I prefer. Thanks for sharing...

    My Pleasure Simpleman, good luck with your experiment. Don't forget about UCR's too, I prefer them to whoopies.
    Good luck,
