Looks good I could see myself using a similar set-up when lowering. We have a large Lebanese cedar to remove soon and most of the lowering of the laterals will require the pieces to be balanced. Generally we use a 5m length of rope with caribeeners tied to each end and a prussik in the middle that is clipped to the lowering lines. The balance is attached to the limb by choking using the caribeeners which is not Ideal. It seems that having two dead eyes as stabilisers would be much more versitile. I love the idea of having one attachment point and stabilisers rather than just spreading the load on the legs it really makes sense .

 

Its seems a well thought out product and system. Well done.

Thanks, really glad you like the idea.

 

However, I had to relace the vid altogether....there were a couple of mistakes in it.

 

I had a whole week to make it but instead rushed it through in a day. Let that be a lesson to me.

 

Here's the revised version, sorry for any confusion. Its still processing on youtube right now so the picture quality will improve in an hour or so. Thanks again

Top drawer Reg, I'm still waiting for that first tree that needs a crane, but when it comes, I'll be after one of those, I can imagine it saves a lot of snags. I bet you could get your flask in it too.:001_smile:
