At the request of a
customer, we went looking for a source of one piece solid brass rings. The
rings are used at the end of a guy line to attach to the stake. This keeps
ropes cleaner (for later folding into the tent) and allows the ropes to
tighten and loosen easier. Although we can find no historical basis for
their use, they sure work great.
BRASS RING: 1 1/2"
Diameter ~ $1.15 ea.
We also sew brass rings into the stake locations for any tent. No more
loops to wear out ever: $2.50 for each location.
