I received a lot of questions about my platform with the whoopie sling attachment. Here's a video that explains how I use it. Also, with the whoopie sling, you aren't relying on the "ears" or "tabs" to support your weight.
That's 1/4 amsteel. You could go bigger without any real weight penalty. I also like the Stepp knot. If I wasn't such a fan of splicing and whoopee slings, I'd be using it.Nice video G2. Im going to go this route but will splice the one side on the platform so it pernament and bypass the larkshead and use a stepp knot on the otherside. Is that 1/4" or 5/8 amsteel? I'm also going to make my own brackets one of these days as i don't have the muddy stick brackets.
Do a search on YouTube for whoopee sling. There are lots of good videos. You just need the rope, some scissors or a sharp knife, and a loop turner.Real nice. So which seat is that? XOP? You got a video a dummy could follow on making a whoopy sling? Also how much does that weigh. Thanks
Savannah is great. Hot as hell!Well done grasshopper!!!!! Nice video. How is Savannah working for ya?
lol - yes I know I have been using bondo and fiberglass inside mine for a while - bent enough tubes to learn thatThat's 1/4 amsteel. You could go bigger without any real weight penalty. I also like the Stepp knot. If I wasn't such a fan of splicing and whoopee slings, I'd be using it.
The weak spot in this setup is the aluminum tube. You MUST REINFORCE IT.
