Thanks for the idea. Looking forward to trying it.

Any special type of knot on the four cinch points that pass through the loops?

Looks like overhands and 1-wrap prussiks to me.

I tried it and it worked great.

Final 4 knots weren't a problem.

I used two smooth Skyshark spars. Nice bonus with smooth spars was that I could take it apart simply by pulling the two spars apart. So the final four knots could be undone without being under tension.

Eleeeeeegaunt.

Thanks
