rngrchad Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 I live on Mt. Baker, close to Bellingham. I am wondering if there are any places within driving distance, that I can get some old Tech Friends reslung. Any ideas? Thank you, Chad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe_Poulton Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 Ask AAI (American Alpine Institute) in Fairhaven...basically Bellingham. They might know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Choada_Boy Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 No one in town offers this service. Northwest Design & Manufacturing sews and repairs packs, luggage, etc, though. If anyone in town could repair slings, it would be them, so give them a call. They're on Franklin Street near the back of Cascade Airgas.

ketch Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 Unless you need them back now. Yates does a quick economical job. Go Here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bstach Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 How 'boot some suggestions for Canada, eh? Anyone know where to get some reslinging done around Vancouver? I have a mix of Camalot and Metolius cams. And a pair of old rigid stem friends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulB Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 No one in/around Vancouver offers this service. On Sight in Squamish used to, but not anymore. I got mine done by Yates this summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Off_White Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Last time I contemplated doing this I just went and bought lengths of 1" tube in assorted colors and tied 'em up. Made my own consistent color coding, no time lag to speak of, dirt cheap. Maybe it's too retro for you modern folk, but it works for me.
