    Source for lightweight rings for hammocks

    In the search for components to make my wife a ring sling. I have come across a company that make light weight weld free rings. Rated to 1250kg. A pair is about a fiver and come in a variety of sizes and colours. I'm gonna pick a few up for use on my SLS and other hammock bits. It might well be a new source for such products at a decent price.

    I get my rings and bits from the horse tackle/bridle shop, reckon if its built for horses, it'll easily take the weight of me

    Try these if you've not sorted it. No association to them ect.

    Isn't it nice when someone says "that's a great piece of kit, where did you buy that", then you can modestly reply "you can't buy it, I made it myself". The moral is, it's amazing what you can achieve if you put your mind to it.
