Steve,
Could you provide information on a source for this rope? At N3RS we
need to replace some of the tag lines we use for hoisting buckets,
tools, small pieces of antennas, etc. It would be sooooo nice to
have a line which did not spin like crazy as the load is hoisted. I
presume that this line does not display the twisting feature I refer
to?
