just wanted to no of a good knot to attach my lowering rope to timber and your opinion it it as im not to familiar with rigging just really trying to get into it and try new things

cheers guys:thumbup:

 

really depends on the piece your lowering ,but running bowline, timber hitch seems to work for the best part ,ive used slings and their pretty handy if the ground staff can keep up:thumbup1: try and have a look at some of the rigging vids :001_smile:
