    Glo Line?

    How cool would it be to have this for your suspension or your guy line?

    Very cool. Maybe a ridge line (although it might make it hard to sleep).

    The fabric looked cool, too. But how would you sleep in a hammock made out of it?

    I'm thinking tarp guy lines would be good for that 1/16" divers cave rope, or even making some tarp tensioners with it.

    It said the glo last about 3 hours. That would be wild seeing something large glowing and swinging in the woods...

    That glow paracord would make a pretty cool knife handle.

    Oh, I have plans for all this glow stuff. The next group hang I attend should be entertaining, to say the least.

    I'm still debating on weather to buy some of it and use it for the tarp tensioners you gave to me. I just keep picturing an axe murderer thinking to himself,"I wonder what that strange glow over in the woods is?"
