I know that there have been lots of discussions about which block to choose but I have a very specific question. I live on an isolated group of islands so I am going to be doing the vast majority of my build myself. I have narrowed my block choice down to Nudura or QuadLock. I am happy that both blocks can produce excellent results. For somebody who is going to get a bit of training from the supplier but then do most of it themselves, would you recommend one block over the other?

I have not personally worked with Quadlock but Nudura is excellent and very fast. Web locking is a big plus. Regards.

Weblok is a very good choice. Other are good, but Weblok has advantages that they cannot.

Thanks for that but Weblok is not available in the UK. Based on supply, pricing, technology etc. I have narrowed my choice down to Nudura or QuadLock and I have to choose between the two.
