I'm not critisizing but that looks like a weak spot to me. It might be interesting to hook that up and put a pull on it to verify, you may already know the answer to that question so I though I would bring it up.

You could also rig it with the mono right through and crimp the thimble and swivel in. Just a thought.

Nice work!!
