Hawkmaster Swivels

[Hawkmaster]

Well ladies and gents after the success of my version of the Bullet Jess System (http://www.falconryforum.co.uk/showthread.php?t=53516) I am proud to bring you my version of that well loved Figure Eight Swivel!

The one pictured below is made from High Quality Aircraft Grade Seemless Stainless Steel and is only a taster of things to come. I would like to see the kind of feedback from you first see if it is worth making, so info you can give on structure and costs etc?:lol:

[SparsTheOne]

Paul will they have a sealed bareing like on the sampo swivels, I like the look of this design very pleasing on the eye, i,ll be happy to do a test for you.;-):P.

[Hawkmaster]

The originals did not so no! But something to consider?

However we will be making them in various sizes from Spar to Eagle eventually if the call is great enough!:D

As far as testing is concerned we will be carrying out heavy drop tests:supz:

[Kat67]

Think i'd prefer the inner edge of each hoop to be bevelled to lessen the possibility of cut on a leash.

[Fly]

is it tig/welded or silver solder

Can anyone tell me what is the advantage of these over a standard swivel? Are these still used at the jesse/leash joint?

Thanks

Just been looking at your's swivels Paul anychance i can buy a couple of you. Paul how did i get to reply on this Forum and not on the international forum whats the problem.

[Keith Barker]

Hello paul,
i use loop leashes, is the small ring say for a medium size hawk big enough for the leash to pass through twice so the loop can pass over the button?
i have found that traditional "D" swivels wont with my leashes.
If they will i will try a couple.

Hey Paul congratulations!! I have used Dougs swivels for years, they are without doubt the best swivel in the world..I have a range of innovative equipment coming out next year..what you have designed is identical to what ive been drawing up! a smaller leash loop,, the famous collar, and a bell shaped top..unbeleivable! but Seems like now I dont have to bother.. Ive been forced to develop my own equipment again, simply because I dont like whats out there! but your swivel looks the dogs nuts Paul.. I am now really excited to try one in the flesh, as apposed to drawings! Im off to NAFA this week, but will be in touch when im back mate.. tell me is this your sole innovation or joint effort Paul, for two strangers to come up with the same drawing is uncanny!!
