Heres an pld pic (2006) of a home made bollard in use alongside the GRCS. Basically anything large in diameter and fixed to the tree in a solid fashion is goiNG to be awsome and easy to use. This one was never tested to destruction so it has no official MBS or SWL and definatly no CE mark but who gives a stuff, it works, job done thank you very much.

So in theory, with a good metal worker one could buy a yacht winch and fabricate a mounting plate then fabricate a separate bollard.

A few hundred pounds for the fabrication plus the winch price.

Brilliant!

The winch that the GRCS uses is about £800 I think. But yes, there have been a few home made ones done in the past. Have seen pictures on TB of at least one.

Rupe, what's TB?

TreeBuzz, the american forum. The pictures were years ago so not much chance of finding them, unless anyone here can remember who posted them? One of our american freinds might know, Gord for example?
