    Sewn vs spliced eyes

    IMO the main positive of a stitched eye is the cheaper cost versus a spliced eye. The biggest negative is the bulk and it is not as smooth in the hand. So it will snag on stuff. That is pretty much the entire argument. Pick cheap or pick smooth.

    Sewn vs spliced eyes

    Run it like you stole it. Look at it this way: how old is your saddle and its stitching?

    Yeah day three has a plank I think. I’ve been doing some planks with the F3 group. Can’t remember the time. I’m sure I’ll be ok for a minute. I’ll do what I can and try for better next round

    Sewn vs spliced eyes

    That's a good question. My thinking is that the hitch cordage itself would be the wear point just as it is with a spliced item. In other words, the cord would be done long before the stitching would have any wear to concern us. It also seems in the good number of years these stitched eyes...

    I was contemplating the wear on the stitching itself.

    Sewn vs spliced eyes

    I don't reckon it would change the life span appreciably, unless I'm missing something?

    Sewn vs spliced eyes

    I’ve always spliced my own prusik cords, using double Brummels. I see many offered with seen eyes. Those of you that use them, how do they compare to spliced? What’s the lifespan compared to spliced eyes?

    If it is at all like mine, sympathies galore my friend. I'm still not well, and it's near three weeks now.

    How'd it go today?

    Weld, let cool a bit, soak in penetrant. Heat draws it in. Tap tap tap a lot with a small hammer. Cool bolt completely to shrink. The best is a small impact gun with just a little trigger. In and out gently to break loose. Repeat as many times as necessary. The weld makes the bolt want to expand...

    50 k is awesome. I’m not a runner. It seems like every time I get to a point where I can get two to three miles in without feeling like I’m dying I get injured. Lower back issues, knee pains, dislocated ribs, and my favorite a broken toe. Today’s morning was up at 4:30 and in the garage by 5...
