: I'm not sure what a slider is, but threading bungee thru tight . . .

Sheesh I'm glad I said that because Brian's post is correct.

**
For other bungee uses (like map/equip holders, backbandsupporters etc), another technique is to clamp 6" from one end, stretch out 200%, clamp very end, saturate sheath betw clamps with CA, accelerate or let setup, release tension, and cut very end of saturated area at a sharp angle.
The hard CA'd sheath constricts the bungee down to abt 1/2 it's diameter for that region.
