That's what I like to hear. I want to make the transition to hammock camping ad seamless and easy as possible! You're more than welcome

[@sundaymorninghikes6275]

Could do a mobius Brummel for the second loop. Thank you for this video.

Howdy and great video! Will the rough measurement always be double the finished outcome? Im not making hammock suspension but replacing the degrading cordage in some of my gear bags and I want loops on both ends for hanging. Thanks for any input.

Hey! No, not every time. Check out my splicing length calculator on this page:

As far as the taper goes?is there anything wrong with removein strands at differnt lengths rite befer I milk the endin berry barry burry....

[@hanginghighhammocks]

If I'm understanding the question correctly, no, there's nothing wrong with that. The smoother the taper transition, the stronger the product

[@ahilbilyredneksopinion]

If I made three foot dog bones ta hook ta beetle buckle suspension and larkshead it ta my hammock would it fail or work fine?

[@hanginghighhammocks]

It'll work fine! Same strength

Any chance of doing a splicing workshop at Hangcon?

I'm planning on having a station setup for continuous loops. My last stand I spliced other stuff as well at people's request. It just depends on how busy I am at that given time
