Had a request last week for a custom dog choker collar in Amsteel blue. I made one in 3/8" first but it didn't function well for several reasons. The next try was in 5/16" and it worked out niiiiice.
Dog Choker Collar in 3/8". I'm going to try this in 1/4" to see how it works but will probably stick with the 5/16" as the abrasion guard fits nice and snug which helps the metal ring slide well. Retail will be $20.
I've also been playing around with some Amsteel Blue line seeing what type of useful little products I can make. I came up with this tonight - a Winch Safety Pull. My Warn came with a piece of webbing that would allow you to hold onto instead of the hook when spooling in your line. Basically a little safety device to help you not squish your fingers in your fairlead. I took my 'inspiration' from that and spliced this up out of 5/16" Amsteel Blue and a piece of winch line abrasion guard. One end has a loop to attach to your hook, or if you use a thimble you can hoop the hook and other end through the thimble for attachment. The opposite end has a small knot that you pinch to lead your line back in. I used a small knot instead of a loop because your hand could still get caught in a loop.
Winch Safety Lead in 5/16". Retail is $15 and shipping to anywhere in the CONUS is $5 with tracking. Multiple orders shipped to one address get shipped at no additional cost over the first unit up to around 10 units. Please contact me at Sales@SoutheastOverland.com or 864-280-4238 for multiple orders and the shipping offer.
These are available on the Southeast Overland webstore HERE, or go directly to the product HERE.
Also, I am making a custom suck down winch line in 1/2" Amsteel Blue to a custom length. I can splice just about any winch line, extension, or other little doodad you might want. I'll have complete winch line pricing posted up in a few weeks. In the mean time if you need anything made out of Amsteel Blue please email me at Sales@SoutheastOverland.com, or call 864-280-4238.
Thanks!
