    Dutch & / or Lawson, one for the suggestion box

    I love my Dutch bling, and I also love Lawson's glowwire, but unfortunately they aren't always compatible, and even where they are (tarpworms, hookworms, etc), I have to learn new bad words to say while trying to thread the bling with the wider cordage.

    What I would *really* love to see is a hollow core single braided Dyneema cordage with a reflective strand or two, sized to fit the bling that currently works with Lash-It/Zing-it.

    Second best would be alternate bling sizes that accommodate the thinnest/lightest Lawson glow-wire available.

    Just a wish list.

    Lawson and I are working together to hopefully bring some new products to market. I really like your suggestions and will have to take a look at that

    As a scholar with a minor in Biology; let me get this straight. You are asking for reflective threads in Zing It Rope or Lawson Glow Wire to string up microscopic tarpwarms and hookworms! Sounds like a wonderful suggestion and one that I am willing to pay Dutch!

    Almost time for another Shug production!

    I love this place!

    Was your major even less related to camping rope than bio?

    +100 on the reflective Zing-it. I'd buy some :-)

    I really prefer the reflective Lawson Glowire but would convert to reflective Zing-It in about two seconds. Either that or size some of the Dutchware for the Glowire. Yes, I know about the inner core business but there are ways around that.

    The inability to slice is the reason I haven't tried and of the Lawson line. I like the way I do my lines with zing-it now, but it requires splicing to look nice. I think a reflective zing-it like line would be very popular!
