Deadeyes vs just lanyards with HM materials

[Brian Duff]

on all the dux riggs we have put together with deadeyes we tie off in the traditional manner, for both dymeema lashings and polyester lashings.

Ain't nuttin' wrong with tradition, most of the stuff was worked out long before I was born!

I would love to see some wood deadeyes combined with Dynex Dux. I believe it is going to be the next wood/epoxy combination. The way wood was "converted" and rediscovered for boat building in the last 30 years, when used with epoxy, we will see rope replacing wire with the new materials!
