    I have mixed views.

    Good:
    Boltsnaps have nice big eyelets
    Jubilee clip has a nice sleeve

    Bad:
    The rope is too short (as is the hose it runs through)
    The jubilee clip comes in a piece of hose. I had to cut this off before the end of the clip would thread through the screw mechanism.
    The rubber loops are much too stiff - hard to get a hose through even out of the water (plus side is that they are perfect if you cut them in half - therefore you get twice as many)

    If I didn't have spare rope and hose from an old kit I had knocking around, I would have felt a bit let-down.

    There are some instructions somewhere about making your own.

    i have made 2 - both of which are exellent, are the length position and colour i want If you have the time (about 20 minutes I think) it saves a reasonable amount of money too.

    I'll try and find the link.

    EDIT: here'sa the link

    Jamie,

    I rig mine this way and have some spare rope, hose and inner tube, all you need is the jubilee and the bolt snaps....

    Let me know.
