Default Constrictors

Hi again,
The Clamptite tool is indeed lovely, but 3 double constrictors, pulled utterly tight, should stay put, if they are right up next to each other. We have tested ours by jumping up and down on the spreader tips.
As for having no constraints at all at the spreaders, it is not only possible but likely that the leeward shroud will escape. Vertical fixity might be less of a problem, given stout enough support at the inboard end.
Fair leads,
Brion Toss
