bump for ian to see my vertical speedline

[Ian Flatters]

well here's my setup. Using a lifting eye instead of a crab and doubling up the line.

nice one testcricket lovely job, bit on the windy side but nicely done.

 

like the vertical speedline from both you and ian videos.

Ian were you just practicing that there or was there something to dodge. Did you just run the rope through a pulley at the.base.then tension it, if so what? Did you clip the lifting eye to both ends of the rope? Never done a verticle.speedline but it looks like it could be a usefully trick when it counts

I've got a trick job coming up soon which has a tight drop zone and a slope. So i tested out my own kind of built vert speedline. So that tree was coming out so i had a play with it to see if it captured the wood enough at the base.

 

I fed the lifting eye into the system at the base so it couldn't escape off the line. I won't use a pulley block in the top again tho as it creates a bit too much slack in the line i might thread a bit of lowering rope through it instead. I just kind of larks footed it at the base to give a stop point at the base.

 

I definatly has its place but only when you don't want chogs running away:thumbup1:
