TYSM as always and all ways !
Still have mentally mapped to compare to Sheet Bend, then Dbl. Sheet Bend;
to then evolve to using Lapp as Bend , but recommend the Doubled Form.
So Dbl. Lapp, RT Lapp or ReLapp(s)?
It is 4am, but before i leave for weekend; wanted to see if we are on the same page for the works between the competing S.Parts please:
For me Lapp has been a real conceptual paradigm twist of the only way forward is to do exactly the opposite strategy been doing…
For my first introduction with Lapp was what not to do; this is not a Bend, kinda a false Sheet Bend in rigors of tree work, lifeline, overhead lifting, high loading etc.
Then to see as a Binding in ABoK, and respecting that, then for waist drawstring in swim, gym, leisure etc. wear. Especially with slip/quick release, and perhaps the doubled presence of the slip makes more sure to ‘dog’ the bight more possibly than the normal single Bitter End like a cotter key/pin.
To then see used as lighter duty Bend by some , trust level between the forewarned Square Knot as deadly errant Bend and the real deal of Sheet Bend(that i prefer as Double Sheet Bend in more critical loading and a lot of times Slipped).
To then once again embrace as a constant concept
ABoK Lesson#1732/pg.296: “There’s a lot of virtue in a Round Turn.”
upgrade to Lapp to make more worthy as a Bend; again as a Slipped form.
For to me, a Single/Simple Turn is a minimal sometimes get by in a lot of stuff, and for real work /trust prefer Round Turn(RT) as a ‘pro’ upgrade. As seen in DBY(Double Bowline w/Yosemite tie off), Dbl. Sheet Bend etc. Even seeing in this light: a Prusik with RT to each side as an upgrade from Girth/Cow as closed/open Prusik forms…
ty!
