Stiffening Up Tricams
|
Anyone have any stories of success or failure in stiffening up tricams to facilitate easier placement? |

In the past, I used athletic tape. I've added the new pink evo tri-cam to my rack. I definitely like it. I hope that it stays stiff for a while. Reslinging years down the road may be an issue, but places like mtntools will probably figure it out. I haven't had a chance to place it that much, so I do wonder about placements unsetting from the stiffer sling. |

Get them laundered. Extra starch. |

I believe CAMP specifically called out for McDs straws in the past. |

Good link Matt! For the lazy: |

Two hours and no good jokes yet? I thought this would be the perfect setup. |

Strips cut from a milk jug/any flexible plastic wrapped in tape. The tricam is stiffer but still flexible enough to maneuver and function. |

Heat shrink tubing did a great job on a few of mine. Looks all professional and shit too! |
|
I use strips of plastic packing straps and electrical tape |
|
heat shrink works for me, too. |
|
A straw electrical taped to the length of the sling has worked great for me for a few years. |

You need a dose of camErect. |

I just wrapped mine tightly with electrical tape. |

Any issues to worry about between nylon and electrical tape adhesive? |
