As of late I've been having the "I think this is a good idea while sitting here at work" moment. Just want to post to make sure I'm not being an idiot because, it sure sounds like a good idea.
I've been thinking of making a tow rope because my trusty strap is nearing the end of its career. I've found some 1.5" 3 strand Nylon rope on the internet that has a breaking strength of 47,000lb. I figure I'd get 22 feet of it and braid a big loop in each end. BTW, anyone know of a vendor of big ropes in the Charlotte Area? Or anywhere in NC for that matter?
Anyone ever made their own tow rope? Good idea? I'll probably end up buying another strap, I just want something unique.
I've got an old truck and I just thought it would look cool to have a tow rope instead of a strap. Then again I might be a giant idiot and need a reality check
