I WAS WATCHING A KZfaq CHANNEL AND SAW HOW THIS GENTLEMAN USED A SIMPLE TOGGLE TO FORM A LOCKING TOGGLE. FROM THAT I FELT I COULD ADD THE TOGGEL TO MY ADJUSTABLE GUY LINE AND FORM A LOCKING TOGGLE LOOP THAT WOULD WORK LIKE A CINCH STRAP FOR HOLDING LOADS.I USED MY WCKNIVES BLACKBIRD TO CUT A OAK BRANCH OF PROPER SIZE. THEN I REMOVED THE BARK AND LOCATED THE PLACE TO CUT THE SMALL HOLE FOR THE 550 PARACORD. TO BORE THE HOLE I USED MY VICTORNOX FIELDMASTER CUTTING AWL. THIS AWL ALLOWED THE HOLE TO BE CLEAN CUT WITH LESS CHANCE OF SPLINT THE OAK STICK. ONCE THE BASICK HOLE WAS BORED I SHIFTED THE THE SMALL BLADE OF THE FIELDMASTE TO DRESS THE EDGES AND PREVENT SPLITING. FINALLY I USED THE PHILIPS SCREWDRIVER TO FULLY OPEN AND ROUND OUT THE HOLE . I HAD ARLEADY CREATED A ADJUSTABLE GUY LINE FROM 550 PAPACORD.ITH THE END PASSED THRU THE TOGGLE I CREATED I WAS READY TO TEST MY IDEA. USING THE ADJUSTABLE GUY LINE I WAS ABLE TO MAKE THE CORD FIT THE LOAD BY SLIDING THE PRUSICK KNOT TO PROPER SIZE.THEN THE TOGGLE USED TO CINCH THE LOAD TIGHT THE TOGGLE PREVENTS THE PARACORD FROM SLIPPING AND SERVES THE PLACE OF A BUCKLE WITH OUT HAVING TO TIE KNOTS.
