Kevin_Matlock Posted November 8, 2004 Share Posted November 8, 2004 Probably the same discussion (and paranoia) with marking your rope with said pens. Maybe use those special rope marking pens instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Macson Posted November 9, 2004 Share Posted November 9, 2004 sorry, just wondering if my 25th post would promote me from "stranger" to "newbie". It worked!! Carry on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blake Posted November 9, 2004 Share Posted November 9, 2004 I've posted 500+ unproductive times, and i'm still a miniwanker. I think this site calls Fred Beckey a Newbie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJScott Posted November 9, 2004 Share Posted November 9, 2004 Yes, because the amount of posts on CascadeClimbers.com directly correlates to your ability to climb Mountains. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macson Posted November 9, 2004 Share Posted November 9, 2004 So anyway, my dyneema slings have a little tag on them. I'd mark there if I wanted to mark. Otherwise a little tape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Crash Posted November 9, 2004 Share Posted November 9, 2004 I sew some colored thread on mine (since they don't have a free floating tag). It works for all soft gear and can easily be cut and removed. drC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyler Posted November 9, 2004 Share Posted November 9, 2004 Blue Water Rope Marker - soy ink (I believe) Keep in mind that if a marker is not safe for your rope it probably won't be safe for your slings either... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
layton Posted November 12, 2004 Share Posted November 12, 2004 I sharpied my name on all my slings and cams so it must be ok. i didn't see the nylon melt or hear any sizzling or see any smoke and i've whipped onto em lots since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sobo Posted November 13, 2004 Share Posted November 13, 2004 Yes, because the amount of posts on CascadeClimbers.com directly correlates to your ability to climb Mountains. Don't you mean indirectly proportional to one's ability to climb? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
