Yes you do. Tom is awesome. I wish I had half the memory that man has. And heck even just a quarter of the energy... he is non-stop.

I did. I took my QAD off my Marquis just to install it your way.

Swamp,

Great demo. However, I find it easier to place a few knots, using serving, where you want the cord to stop on the down cable. Then, run the cord through the down cable below the knots and draw the bow. Because of the pressureon the cordduring the draw the cord will only pull through the down cable to the spot that has the rest at 90 from the riser shelf. Then, I cut off the cord and melt the end to a ball. Very simple and very fast.
