Everything! Trad routes in the mountains and sea cliffs, Wales, Lakes, Scotland, lime, granite, gneiss......
I just want a selection of the best small bits to fit into small and tricky cracks. Having been climbing on Gogarth this weekend, I was a bit gutted to see my micro stoppers and ultralight rocks disappear into the sea as their flared nature would have meant they would have sat better in a lot of the cracks than the traditional nuts I had left.
Instead of just buying th sme, I thought I'd see if there was something better out there. The brass nature of the DMM nuts appeals as it makes me think they'll be softer so more likely to deform, stick and less likely to blow the placement. The reality, however, might be quite different.....
