I do love this stuff. So cheap, so flexible, so soft, so easy to work with.
I’ve been experimenting with various suspension options. So far, the myerstech blue polyester lightweight straps are my go to, but mule tape seems very appealing.
Then, I saw this - yikes! The only thing I want to worry about burning after hiking all day is my food, not my suspension. Seems like a forced situation, but this could easily happen - plop down on the hammock, etc.
Also a decent analysis of the protect the tree with a wider strap issue
So, what is your personal experience with mule tape?
I just bought some of this to experiment with its 5/8 width 1800# seems super solid to me, but triple nickels catastrophic failure is hard to ignore.
