  1. Past hour
  2. Fritz is a name not a word. Gott in Himmell Doug!
  3. Btw, I claim a victory as you can spell Fritz as frits and it sounds exactly the same.
  4. Hey Lez what happened to you I thought you were going to call me and buy my sawmill
  5. Wordle 1,561 X/6 ⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜ ⬜⬜⬜🟨⬜ 🟨⬜⬜⬜⬜ ⬜🟩🟩⬜⬜ ⬜🟩🟩🟩⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩⬜ I tried and that's all that matters.
  6. so he could have said maybe 'hey Rich - interesting post, am really interested to hear what the guys on here think myself'
  7. Fair enough if that's your bag. I think the responses speak volumes.
  8. this is a politics thread right - real politicians do hatchet jobs on each other all the time - so at least let us get nasty with our keyboards (we may even dream about training up for the real thing) so online nastiness can help build resilience, toughen us up for the real world, just in case any of us ever dare to try to enter public life.

  9. Today
  10. F you Newton. .325 is quicker than 1/4 because it’s bigger dumb****************.
  11. You're northern, you're about as likely to spend money on recommendation as @kram
  12. I’m really pleased you made such an effort to tell your old mates about this. You selfish little twat.
  13. It’s not a word though is it? It’s a name. Yank pricks. Before you start, f off Mick.
  14. Knut hitch is my preference, its more compact than the other common ones, great bite and release of the rope, you can add extra turns if more friction is needed. Spliced E2E is nicer than sewn too. Cant buy them, not at a sensible price. Hitch climber doesnt interest me but there are other ways to do the same thing, useful for going back up if the anchors already set. I used it today just to get photo, you can use a 2mm cord prussiked on the eye/knot side of your rope with the other end on the tails of your friction hitch. Its a bit of a pain for changeovers - I use a mini carabiner so it can be unclipped easily. I dont often use it.
  15. And in the real world most of us live in here in the UK 😂 Inflation up everything else heading south, the fuller picture certainly not better 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️
  16. Cheers, just watched a video of it in use and it looks so smooth I'm tempted to hold off on buying a Zigzag and try climbing with this first instead.
  17. My number is 07855445017 If you want to have a chat tomorrow about 2-230 .
  18. and in the real world: 1st page of the interent results suggest 2025 US GDP will rise by about 1.8%, Q2 - the one from your Linked in suggests just over 3% but metched by a drop in GDP in Q1.... Just thought a fuller picture might be better.

  20. By crypto I assume you mean crypto.com?
  21. Another one to consider is Camp Tree Access ST, I like it. Treeaustria Pro appears good, no knotted rope bridge, decent Cobra buckles. Single bridge, not sure if you can add a second, I like having two when I'm using multiple ropes. Only dislike is that it has Petzl Ring Open's, or similar, for the bridge attachement, I sort of distrust them.
  22. And this is the reason hardly anyone gets involved in these debates. Rich asked a reasonable question then you come along with some BS hate crap. Everyone thinks what a prick, ICBA, hence the lack of replies. Its a strategy that weve seen time and time again, it works Ill give you that.

    Spikes

    Only the bottom should be filed, maintaining the curve, the triangular sides and spine should be left as they are. Short is not a problem you just need the correct shape. Only only the first 10mm -20mm goes into the wood., well dependjng on tree and how thick or rotten the bark is. Mine are just right I think. I saw a video some time back, the climber slipped and spiked the inside of his calf. Blunt or sharp, they will still easily go through chainsaw trousers and into a leg. Scares me that does.
