Re: Internal guys in a Nallo 2 Would it be worth just cutting the double guy rope at the apex? How much load is distributed between the 2 guy point in practice by virtue of the sawing? Sounds like you guys are suggesting &q... |

Tent poles - calling materials scientists and engineers Please discuss pros cons of 2x 8mm poles vs single 16mm pole As above but for single 13 mm pole. I would imagine a single 13 mm pole is stronger than sx8mm ones if you don't dent it? Wh... |
