I am contemplating using rope in the place of a hand rail. What type of rope material will stand up to the elements in a garden surrounding, maybe even ground contact?
I've seen marker ropes strung across swimming pools with floats on them. They probably are a rayon mix of some kind. The sun dries them out and they start shedding all these splinters. That stuff is awfully dangerous if someone swallows or gets it in a lung. I agree straight nylon will likely do best. SS chains good idea too, but even pricier, I'm sure.
Synthetic fiber ropes maybe the right one for you.
