I am looking for some used aluminum rap rings - the rolled seamless kind that used to exist at Yosemite belays. The older and more worn they are, the better. I have NO intention of hanging off of them.

I am recreating a fake, vintage belay station inside a restaurant, and have already installed some rusty and rotten 1/4" rawls, with matching Leeper and SMC hangers. I have the sun-bleached 1" webbing tat ready to go. All I need are two or three of those old rap rings, and my time machine will be complete.

Mission: Accomplished

Bruce Hilden has offered to send me lots of mank that he has cleaned from real belays, so I can recreate the Death Belays of yore.

I will post photos of the fake belay station.
