hi all...

i posted a WTB in the gear swap, but thought maybe folks here wouldn't see it, so also wanted to ask here... i'm looking for 75-100' of used static rope, just for around the house, car camping, etc.

anyone have any laying around, or know of a good source, for some rope too old to climb on, but still with some life in it?

my WTB post is at:

thanks!

If you are looking for rope too dangerously used / abused to actual use I'd suggest ebay. Sadly they usually they include the "used once" or "used just one season" in the description despite being horribly unfit for actual use (core shots, heavy abrasions, chemical exposure).

If you wanted the new stuff I could help you out. Or if 8mm accessory cord will work I've got spools and spools that I could put on sale.

Thankfully they are usually priced appropriately so $15 may find you a 60M rope.

thanks joe... i was at REI and just bought 75' of 8mm... it's pretty inexpensive, so i just made it happen. thanks!
