Default Constrictors

Hello,
Yes, you are trying to put a lot of weight onto a little surface area. Try a series of three Double Constrictors, hove tight with two mallets, stacked under each rung. Not appreciably faster than service, nor as pretty, but will do the job. It's also how we secure spreader tips, as well as D-rings for chest-high lifelines.
Fair leads,
Brion Toss
