Brion Toss, Sponsor and Cable-Maker

Written by Tom Nugent on Thursday, January 8th, 2009

I want to welcome Brion Toss Yacht Riggers as the newest sponsor of LaserMotive.

Early on, we tried making our own continuous loop cable, but the quality was not stellar, and the cable eventually wound up fraying and breaking. After much searching, we found a local company that still practiced the old art of making long splices in steel cable. As you can see, the results are pretty nice:

I’m told that the process is somewhat labor intensive, but the quality of the final product is great. We’ve got the pictured cable mounted on our big treadmill, and we’ve also made a much smaller treadmill that also has a Brion Toss cable on it.

Thank you to Brion Toss Yacht Riggers for their support of LaserMotive!
