toggle strength

[benz]

Hi Allen,

Pretty nifty--I wouldn't have thought of covering a piece of rod. I was going to have a little spliced loop that would accommodate the toggle every place that it was necessary. I don't have sails with headboards, but that's a nice way of getting the pull straight. I had considered drilling a small hole in the middle of a metal (bronze, of course) pin, spicing the line over the hole, and then carefully working a cotter pin through both legs of the loop and the hole, thus keeping the pin from slipping out of the splice. It could also be lockstitched that way...
