rigging storage bag

[James Atkinson]

what is the best bag/thing to hold my stein single bollard/pulley blocks/ slings and so on in, the bollard is so heavy it rips every i try, and i would prefer to have it all in one place, and taking up as little space as possible, hmmmm...

Not sure about the size and weight of the Stein single bollard but we use Lyon bags of various sizes for all our rigging/climbing gear, we can get a Buckingham Portawrap and blocks etc into them no problem. Having used all the other brands at one time or another - Lyon are probably the best rope/equipment bags you can get. We have 5 of the 40 litre bags for our rigging gear/ropes. Shop around for the best deals.

I've said it before and I'll say it again - a garden trug.

Cheap, tough, stackable.

 

Did I mention cheap?

Best value for money if you want it on a bag is Army surplus heavy duty canvas cylinder bag. Looks like one of those olde navy kit bags. Has a side handle and shoulder strap which also closes the lid one metal clips. £8 well spent. Mine has a 60m (heavy) lowering rope, portawrap, block, big dans, slings and sawdust in it. Still going strong 2 years later.

that sounds good mr org, you got a link? those lyon bags do look good, but the bollard is flipping big and heavy, i might just have to keep it separate

try one of the new DMM rope bags not long out.

i use a heavy duty platic storage box, much better imo

We keep the bollard separate generally, because it is a chunky monkey with bag-ripping protusions!

 

Ex-army shout is a good one, the rest of our rigging kit lives in one (thank you trooper Lawrence, whoever you are!) and the big rigging line lives in a 'pop-up' garden waste bag, which keeps the tail tidy on site as well.
