    They are made exactly the same way. You could use the bury lengths off a whoopie sling tutorial from samson rope for 7/64". One fid is 21 time the diameter of the rope. An eye with a 4.5" bury and an 8" bury for the UCR part would be sufficient, if not overkill. I use 6" bury on my whoopie and it never moves.
    Good luck,

    I asked the same question in fallknivens thread here: https://www.hammockforums.net/forum/...ad.php?t=66163 post 13 has the answer... 6.5-7" I went for a smidge over 6" and have had no issues.
