DIY reslinging tricams
|
I've heard of the difficulty/impossibility of reslinging tricams at home, but I was thinking: couldn't you just double loop some high-tensile cord where the sling used to be? With two loops through where the sling was, I don't think there would be any loss of stability. Or find some nylon that's the right size and just tie it off with a double fisherman's? Perhaps a little sewing job would be necessary to keep the sling cinched tight to the tricam with no loss of strength. Ideas? |

Dunno you'll die, but you'll spend more on the high tech cord than getting them redone properly in nylon. |

I wasn't sure you were going to die when I read "high-tensile cord," but then I read "a little sewing job" and oh yeah, yep, yer gunna die. |

1/2" webbing is fine. |

Thanks for the info, Locker do you offer discounts on resoling multiple pairs of shoes? I promise the rand hasn't broken through any of them... |

Camp USA had included instructions for reslinging with new units. Water knot w/tails and then wrap with nylon reinforced tape around the knot. |

Nice. Gonna save it for the future. |

Leave the sewing to professionals. My work sews a lot of life safety equipment and believe me, can't do that at home without the proper equipment! |
