Willie, I'm glad you enjoyed the video, it'll be a year in Feb, time certainly does fly. You're right we had two chains for most of the lifts, one on some of the smaller pieces. The balance points just come with practice, nothing more. Same priciples as conventional rigging with ropes and pulleys etc.
Many climbers might prefer to use multiple slinging to be absolutely sure, while a lazy climber like me will probably look to keep it as simple as possible
