I've started using a nacrabiner to attach one end of my ridgeline around the tree. I inadvertently dropped it while packing up my tarp the other day...thankfully while at home. This got me thinking about how to attach it to prevent this. This is what I came up with. I just spliced another piece of 1.75 zing-it into the end of my ridgeline to make it. I think it should work...any thoughts to the contrary?
