Let me start by saying I am always open to new ideas and viewpoints. If i thought i knew it all I sure as hell wouldn't be askin for opinions. I have had more experience in downhill procedures on pipe. and when I have done uphill, I have usually been able to weave it all the way out. I am pretty comfortable weaving because I like carrying a hotter puddle and moving a little faster. The vertical up stringers on pipe are holding me up a bit. As i m sure with many, I don't have near the problem stacking in stringers with 3/32' s simply because with the smaller rods, I can weave them and produce a slick bead equivalent to the size of a stringer with a 1/8th. I am curious about hearing rod angles, current parameters and manipulation techniques for some good looking stringers with 7018s on pipe. Thanks in advance.
