CONT

... Sewn runners, always made of webbing, are stronger, lighter, and less bulky than knotted runners. They also eliminate the possibility of the knot untying, a continual concern with homemade runners. Sewn runners come in four normal lengths: 2-4 inch and 4-inch "quick draws", 12-inch "half-lengths," and 24-inch "full lengths." They also come in a variety of widths, with 9/16-inch, 11/16-inch, and 1-inch being the most common.
