Length continuous loop on Warbonnet

**Mr.magoo** · 07-16-2019, 07:09

Hi
Ordered a WBXLC but forgot to order the continuous loop. Planning to use the straps for my other hammock.
Now I need to make one.
What length do you recommend for a becket suspension?

Most companies sell an 8" diameter loop

Warbonnet adds continuous loop as default.

Yes, 8 inch finished diameter. Most youtube videos will show you how to make a loop, and use this 8 inch diameter as standard

For 8" diameter loop, start with 36" of Amsteel and make the buries 6" each, including taper.

If you clip loop to two separate carabiners and pull carabiners in opposite directions, resulting distance between carabiners will be 8 inches for an 8 inch continuous loop
Phantoms best guess

That’s how I thought it would be.
Good answer. Nothing left to interpretation.
