Thanks for that Marco, It's a good thing to laugh about as it's a bear of a
job, at least with the knowledge I have now. I got them in with help, but we
never achieved six wraps. I think now I might be able to next time, it
appears to be one of those tasks that gets easier each time. Hammer handles,
padded pliers, and the other tools suggested all helped, but didn't make six
wraps possible, at least for me. I stopped at five and was sad to give up
that much progress toward the sixth and watch that slack get sucked back.
But the suspension is loads harder than it was before, so five may do me
fine. It is a 1050 machine not 1200 and I plan to fly alone almost always,
nowhere near max weight. I'm going to go with five at least for now and hope
for the best.

I haven't replaced mine for awhile, so my knuckles have had
time to heal. Can't remember how I did it last time but I'm sure it was
different from the time before and equally unpleasant. If I had to do it
again today I'd be mightly confused by the various written explanations that
have been proffered this time around. Could someone who as developed an
"easy, 10 minute per side, one-man" system possibly video the magical
process and post on you-tube? If a picture is worth a thousand words, a
video is worth a million. We the bungee-maimed would be most appreciative as
would our profanity scorched families and punted pets.
