I've just spliced a new pinto rig onto a prussick for a rope guide - finishing the whipping in front of the computer. I plan to try it out tomorrow ..... to commemorate the royal wedding of course!

Pinto;s are awesome for rope guides (just waiting on mine from Bristow..)

Yep think i'm gonna go for the pully saver as my next purchase,

 

Ps does anybody know where you can get the spacers for the smal pinto? I've tried tying two fishermens to the eyes but they're a bit big

I don't know. I've considered getting a spacer too. There is a part number for the two spacers - that might be a place to start trawling the internet. Or a phonecall to the suppliers on the right might be all that's needed.

I've spliced a prussick straight onto the pinto.

No worries got it for my lanyd anyway, where it'll most likely stay,if i get the ps can that when needs b,

For the price the Pinto should have come with a spacer stop misconfigs ext.. Imo

Problem with a splice is you can't use it for anything else,

The Jelte prusik can be used in lieu of the spacer. Treetools blog

 

8mm cordage works fine in the small PINTO.

Ive been watching a few bits from you recently and very keen to see just how your using the new DMM impact blocks and fascinated by the second option of lines through the spindle! never knew that till i saw a vid!

A DMM Rigging Hubs vid is in the works and will feature a few more Impact Block configs as well.
