[QUOTE="Bigfoot, post: 944502, member: 17956"] I'm not sure of thier breaking point, but when one of my calf ropes becomes useless for some reason, I uncoil the strands. I then braid three of the strands together. I then tie that in to a halter. Seems like it takes over 20 feet to make one. They are free and industructable. I plat the same material into a lead rope. I usually use 7 strands for that. Attach it with a pineapple knot, not a brass snap. I little trick for the one breaking halters. Put this halter on him. Put a cheap feed store halter over it. Tie the cheapie up about 6 inches shorter than this halter. When the cheapie breaks this one will catch him. Problem should be solved. [/QUOTE]
