This test was done with 6 straps to test the strength of the 40" ring. Assuming a pumpkin weighting 2,400 lbs with 12 straps this would be 200 lbs on each strap. The wider ring puts much less stress on the sides of the pumpkin. This ring with 12 adjustable straps and a bottom closing strap would cost $350 plus shipping.
