Dear Bill and Newton

Is this a joke?  Why on earth would you glue the straps to the wires? They are designed to be removable. What happens if you need to repin a hammer flange,or whippen, or jack?

           Bill, Why cement to the wires  ?   With the cork types I don't even like adhesives in the catcher holes. Since bridles may possibly be replaced more than once in an actions lifetime why make things difficult for the next tech. Of course depending on your age you may be dead by then, so you won't be hunted down, but seriously  forget the glue IMHO.  Tom Driscoll
