Treemagineers Pulley Saver.

[Tommy_B]

Is it you selling them Tuttle?

With ring method, it is attached to the climbing line in a couple of ways, same as the ball retrieval method. (Apart from mine as it is permanently hitched to the spliced eye.

 

Retrieval is the same apart from one thing, the ring may enter the pully horizontally and it wider than the two sides of the pully. So it could get stuck.

 

A ball is the same diameter all round and which ever way it enters the pully it will exit.

 

I think I will stick to the ball method. Never tried the double snapper but don't really get my pulley saver stuck that often. The key is in the placement and crotch selection. I like a nice wide crotch, bit like my women!

Right I have looked at the description. How is the ring any different to a retrieval ball? It obviously is different but looks like it retrieves in an identical fashion.

 

How or why is it so good?

 

Well, most people mess about shaving the ball and its only on a bungee cord.

 

The stainless ring orientates itself through the gap with minimum effort and is fixed with 550kgs mbs cord, the ring is 800kgs mbs, so there is more strength in that setup.

 

It was found out by accident, and works everytime, on any type of cambium saver.

It never gets stuck, it is smooth and slick everytime, try it...you will never look back.

 

It does not get stuck like you say, because it just rotates.

I use the ART ball that came with my first ropeguide.

 

I really can't believe I haven't lost it yet! I understand what you mean though about the larger balls having to be shaved down.

 

I hate shaved balls, too itchy for me.

I hear you mate, but it is a solution to a problem that I don't have ATM.

[Gerbutt]

Haha....I nearly spat my coffee out twice there Rich :-)

[tuttle]

I just tried my best to try and jam the ring, it will not jam, constantly wants to rotate because of the smooooth pinto lines.....as the saying goes

just keep it in mind, and keep a ring on your keyring thats the right dap, one day it might come in handy.

That double snapper looks good but i dunno weather a ball would pass through the pinto as the one i have is spliced eye to eye. maybe with some force.

 

Just using the flip the end of yer rope over a branch below and tie a running boline onto the running side of the set up before i get down. uninstall as normal and lower off the end of yer rope. good if you have enough rope!
