Just got my cams back from Metolius, and they look friggin amazing! It's like they practically chromed them. $3 each for complete cleaning and new slings and they turned them around in 3 days (then 5 days of shipping) Total bill for 6 tcu's with shipping home - $28!. And they're all updated to the nice new "Monster" webbing (36% Dyneema / 64% Nylon).

Amazing service.

Had all 10 of mine done a couple years a go and had the same reaction you did.

Great service at a great price!

Pretty sure Mountain Tools will sew a reinforced open loop for you. And they don't give you any crap about your cams being too old to resling or cut your trigger wires before sending them back.

I've used them for Tri-Cams and WC Friends and have really been satisfied.

I've used both MtnTools (for Tricams) and Metolius (for TCUs) for reslinging. Both did a great job. Metolius buffed and lubed my 10-15 year-old cams to perfection and nary a word about them being too old or trashed. I know that some folks have had their cams rejected, but I wonder about the typicality of that experience. And the price is right -- as the OP points out.

this was definitely my reaction to getting back my TCUs from reslinging.

I'll add to the praise. I had the same reaction when I received my cams back from Metolius.

It's practically worth the price just to have that shiny almost new look back. And, I have no idea why anyone would climb on slings older than the recommended life span. $3/cam every 5ish years for the confidence that your slings are full strength again...it's a no-brainer IMO.

A word of caution about Mtn Tools-had my cams reslung recently with longer slings. First I called them and confirmed that they would do the resling as described-they agreed, I mailed them in with a detailed note, got the cams back with wrong slings. On the phone they admitted to making a mistake but then really tried to talk me out of repairing their mistake, I would not budge and sent the cams back in. At this time I had a trip coming up, but they assured that I would get the cams within 8 days. I called back 4 business days later-they have not touched them yet. They were finally on fedex truck two days before my trip, but they send them to a wrong address. Eventually they called fedex and had them left on my front door for lack of other options which did not make me happy having a box of 15 cams sitting there. It all turned out well in the end,after 3 weeks, but I did have to pay shipping 4 ways $100 worth of and they refused to work with me on covering a part of that. It seems that their process or communication needs some work. Hopefully the actual resling was done more professionally than the rest of the process since I have to climb on the things now.

^^^Sounds like a pain in the ass! I'm way overdue for having a shit ton of cams redone. Didn't Wired Bliss do reslinging, too? I've got cams from several different companies to get worked on, I'd like to send them all to the same place. I heard Metolius only works on their stuff...

I just had 5 cams reslung at Ragged Mountain Equipment in Bartlett, NH. Cost $6 each. The slings were a bar tacked loop about 4-5" long. Turn around time from when I dropped them off until they were done was a week on the nose.

Had sent my all my cams to be reslung in 2009.
Metolius cleaned, tumbled, lubed and restitched all my cams. They gave me up to date tracking info as soo as they were out the door.
BD reslung the cams only no tracking info...
Ragged's prices are competitive to BD and Metolius.
Psif shipping from Canada, go expedite or better so the shipping includes the brokerage fees. There's no duty on climbing gear, but brokerage can cost quite abit.

Wired Bliss did a great job for me recently. $5 per resling, any brand. They also do new trigger wires for $5, which look better than the originals. Top notch work and easy to work with in my experience.
