Darren I know you are a big fan of the 12mm rope to make these shackles but would 10mm or 11mm be sufficient for most of us?
I reckon that one of Jonno's that we used last weekend was 9mm and seemed up to the task. Thinking about buying a few metres of rope to make a few shackles.

If you buy new rope then buy an extra 10m or so and make a couple. WinnerQuote:

Yeah my rope is not old so not wanting to replace the lot. Roadrunner sell per metre so I was thinking of getting enough to make a few shackles and an extension strap.Quote:

Buy a 20m or 28m length. 2 to 3m per soft shackle for a good size one.Quote:

SK75 will be fine mate. Its getting cheaper by the day mate. It really is sacrificial. There is no excuse for running ratty rope.Quote:

Yeah cheers Daz, I remember spending a LOT more than that when I built my winch and yes, used 11mm.Quote:
