Snow Pickets - Upright Midclips
Posted: Tue Apr 24, 2012 9:57 pm
Just wondering how many have read this article on snow pickets:

So the findings more or less were:
In most cases upright midclips are as good as a t-slot with a fraction of the work. Does this get anybody to dig less t-slots? Why or why not?
I'd like to try this but I'm not wild about permanently swagging 4mm cable to my pickets. I think I'm going to go with 3/16 "Amsteel Blue" spectra which should give me similar strength even with the knot. Thoughts?
