Next message: Eric Thompson: "lv-ab: Anchors"
High Test chain vs other types: Still seems the weak link is the Anchor
shackle. Working load seems to be below the working loads of the various
chains. Would stainless quicklinks be better? Can they be safety wired or is
it necessary. Can only find breaking strength for the ss quick links. Other
than being higher, what is the relationship between working load and
breaking strength. Would 1/3 be more or less a constant?
