I'm new to hammocks but no stranger to ropes and camping. I just got into hammock camping and I've been exploring all the various utility cords.
I was about to order some Zing-it or similar cord when I remembered I had a large spool of cord in my shed. My landlord contracted a couple of guys to take down a massive tree right next to the house. These guys were not necessarily licensed or bonded but they knew what they were doing.
After they were done they forgot their big spool of cord. The cord is on a big yellow spool and has about 2-4 different types of cord tied together. Now this was 11 years ago so I have no idea what kind of cord is on this spool. Being quasi arborist I'm sure it's some type of throw cord. It still had the shot bag tied on. By the way the cord really stinks too. It has a fishy oily smell so I'm sure it was coated with something.
Is there any way to ID what kind of cord I have? If I take photos is there some one that can ID it for me?
