    Probably because I haven't built the required tooling yet......

    Ahha Tobin, I somehow thought you may have been the one involved in that discussion!
    any idea on a timeline to production?

    Probably longer than either of us would prefer. Realistically they aren't near the top of my to do list, sorry.

    I have this memory that Steve Bogaerts is using thinner and smaller D-rings on his Razor harness. You might write to him and ask (I think he's smb on this board).

    Strapworks.com offers a pretty thin gauge D-Ring. You can even get them in different colors.

    Are you talking about the standoff rings ? Like the DSS or DO or High Seas ? or just a thin d-ring with 30 degree bend ?

    Thinner d-rings or smaller d-rings? Why the wish for thinner d-rings?
