    Strapman,

    I was checking out your website, and the straps that you offer, and I saw where you used "two box X patterns" to sew your loops on the end of the webbing. This subject has come up before, but have you done any scientific/lab testing on the best stitches to use on webbing? What is your feeling on bar tacks pertaining to webbing?

    I think it's totally cool that the folks at Strapworks have not only found their way to our little forum, but that they have shown enough interest to get involved. That, if you ask me, is a perfect example of a retailer getting involved with their customer base. The selection, price and awesome customer service is what keeps a lot of folks here at HF going back to Strapworks. Thanks, Strapman, for keeping us hanging.

    He talked about that in a post on another thread. As a matter of fact, there is quite a bit of good info in that thread.

    I ordered the 20 foot length with plans to cut it in the center. In my case with the buckle system 10 feet of strap on each end should be enough.

    Funny thing: while I was filling out the appropriate paperwork to add this to the site, I got three calls from members of this forum.
    Anyway to get a break on the shipping if you're only ordering 1 sling strap?

    I just ordered 1 strap from their website today and it was like $3 for USPS First Class Shipping. How much more of a break do you need? Make sure you click "More Carriers" when the UPS quote comes up, then you can select USPS.
