Yes mate, it is my home made saver. I used: Sirius 14mm (produce Teufelberger) double braid clas.1, Tenex 9mm for prusic, sweet Pinto, Edelrid small biner, Petzl rubber protector. And big steel ring from Singing Rocks cambiumsaver. Now i will be made lighter and cheaper model, from 16strand rope without steel ring but with formed eye. Prusic from IceBlue and as pulley i would like try ISC Micro. Or i can made acording to your wish, dont problem. Regards from beatiful hot spring Prague.

 

does it retrieve well with the edelrid biner and retrieval ball?

 

looks very neat and i might be copying that idea :biggrin:

Hey Martin,

10mm OP works fine. The tubing is industrial heatshrink that is super tough and ive never had any problems with retrieval.

Hi Matt, good question! For this setup you must adapt cherry size. For Pinto is original cherry too big. I have cherry diameter after resize 18mm and work great. And i little bit reduced Edelrid biner-without problem, it´s easy.

Cheers :thumbup1:

i would defo thread the ends as in the above method instead of just splicing and whipping, i bought some 9mm tenex and had a right mess about with it - and i would only rely on that.

 

Thanks for the advice - although I've had no problems (so far) with any of the Tenex splices - this kind or the locked Brummel.

 

What was it that caused you concern and what should I be looking out for?

bro thats going to get so stuck... if you cant splice just put the tubing on mid way down the rope, positioned in a bight. then form the desired size of eye (remembering to keep the tubing in th eye) and stitch the 2 parallel ropes together remembering to add a stopper knot at the end of each leg of rope, the pinto prussic will keep both legs together as well during use-the stitching just keeps it tidy and is not a strength component..
