What micro pulleys are people using for rigging smaller bits?

[Stihl Unknown]

I would never use a micro pully to lower use a krab in a sling if its small. Or lower using a crotch.

[SPC Trees]

Rarely do it and shouldn't but for smaller branches it helps the groundie lower it to the floor as the weight sometimes isn't enough...

[Tony Croft aka hamadryad]

anyone using the old rope through the fork technique these days needs retiring.

 

Only came here to say well done on pushing 70k on the thread adam, good job

And to pass opinion of course.

Nothing wrong with natural crotch rigging.

[johnanderton]

With cheap cable lay ropes maybe but modern rigging ropes suffer too much & if your lolered like you should be then they will fail due to damage if your rigging anything with weight

[Mountain man]

Natural crotch for light to medium rigging is fine, especially if you're changing the rigging point all the time. I've used that big blue rope for years without a pulley, as long as it's not too big or run too fast it's fine.

Xrings or a pulley for the big stuff.

Might add I'm not saying it's wrong just you have to except what happens to your rigging kit ..
