(...) Any thoughts on the actual rope? We were discussing something commonly/easily available (unlike the sash cord :) Something like (URL) Canadian Tire - 50 ft of 5/16" rope for ~$10. Is that too thin/flexible? Is a thicker/stiffer rope desired? (...) (19 years ago, 20-Mar-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Wow, it's like I logged into lugnet.org.us.somegu...inindiana* :) I'm not really sure where we are on this one, other than we know we're starting a contest up here.

(...) Chris, Funny you should bring this up. We were just talking about doing this (A) at BrickFest and (B) at our club (LafLRC). It would be really cool if we could come up with a common set of rules, then we could have events within our clubs, and (...) (19 years ago, 20-Mar-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

Well, I took a shot in the dark--this is the e-mail I sent to Doug and Frank-- We are still finalizing the details as to that size we need.
