    Don't take this the wrong way, the diagrams are great but they need to be proofread. several typos at first glance at least on the strap page.

    It is recommended that you CHANGE...

    I think it's been corrected. Take a look to be sure, when you get a chance, if you don't mind.

    Agreed... they need to be proofread. That's what you guys are for.

    I've fixed quite a few errors on the Tree Strap sheet, and I'm sure there are plenty more throughout the lot of them. Don't hesitate with pointing them out so they can be fixed.

    Thanks robanna.

    Could some of you splicers take a look at the whoopie sling illustration and give me your feedback. I've had someone voice concern about the locked-brummel / fixed eye splicing (since it's been changed thanks to TiredFeet's recommendation) and would like to hear from more of you on it. I definitely don't want to pass on bad information.

    Scott, the way I have been doing my slings my locked-Brummel is longer. I do 8''-bury, 4''-2'' loop. Everything else looks exactly like I do. I have made and hung from 8 pairs of homemade whoopies.
