will the pull/load be relatively parallel with the tensioned main line? Or will it suspend a load/pull perpendicular with the main line.
I believe that we have to give a try to solve the harder problems first... If we are lucky, and succeed, then we will be able to solve the rest in no time. The hard problem is when the pull/load is parallel with the Main line, AND, when the Main line is of about the same diameter as the hitch s rope, AND, when the Main line is tensioned. If we solve this, the rest is a piece of cake.
The second place in ABoK where Ashley is dealing with such hitches, is ABoK#1733-1762. But the hitches presented there are more complex, multi coiled structures. I am looking for the simplest possible hitches, those with 2 coils only.
