Climbing gear improvement/fix:
older Black Diamond Camalots (spring loaded camming devices) have swaged cables on the trigger pulls that eventually break from being crammed into packs etc. The official BD fix is like $10.
Better, and cheap is this repair:
buy some weed whacker cord at the hardware store.
feed a piece through the trigger and cam lobes with the two ends coming out of the cam lobes. Using a lighter, melt the ends down (hold them pointing up) into little blobs that collect at the cam. Let them cool. Do this to both sides and you have a flexible, durable trigger pull that will withstand the rigors of piling, stuffing, scraping, etc. |
