I also learned a skill trade for rigging; splicing rope with brummels ....This enabled me to install my own Colligo Dux lifeline kit, it is a great stainless steel replacement that is ; lighter, stronger, easier to manage/DIY .
So check out the pics here of my brummel spliced Colligo Dux at 5mm, the black delrin terminals, and the dyneema lashings. Check it out, or I can do it for you if you don't want to learn ....
