Dogbone rope wrench
Here is the Dogbone Rope Wrench that I use, notice how the swivel link allows the installation of the rope on line.

Re: Dogbone rope wrench
I will post pictures of it set up, as soon as my camera batteries are re-charged. : )
I have posted a picture of this Dogbone before, but it did not show how the rope was inserted. The purple one was from an earlier trial. Here they are pre-anodized

Re: Dogbone rope wrench
Gordon, the pin on the swivel link.... would it not be beneficial to have it going into a slot/keyway to reduce possibility of the link twisting under load?
