Breaking strength is 1,600 working load is then / 10 = 160?X 10

I just made my first daisy chain from 7/16 Amsteel for my climbing sticks. What a slick way to connect sticks to a tree. I’m impressed how solid it is. No slipping and super easy to connect and disconnect. My first attempt was in total darkness on my neighbor’s tree. I’m sold.
And it is almost non existent wrapped on my sticks for stacking. Huge difference from the single line of 1/4” Amsteel I was using and wrapping around my versa button.

I have some Smooth barked maples on one property I can try it out on.

Would be great, I'm wanting to do this mod. Amsteel is so fun to work with.
Any idea how long to make each one?
I didn’t time myself but I would guess 45 minutes to make a 5 footer.

Rope length, sorry. Lol wondering how many feet equals how many feet post splicing
It would work, but you can still separate them if you want, with 3 it's impossible. It's taking the place of the bury on a locked brummel.Why isn’t two splices sufficient to lock those loops? Why do you need to make the third splice? It locks fine with two and the third one just puts more space between loops.
