Rope puller/Come along

[born2trot]

Big advantage that i can see is the continious pull . The ones over here ( look identical to ones shown ) dont do this but are only about £20 quid or something . Only downside is that they can be fiddley to release under high tension which is where the tirfor types always win , but for lightness , cost etc they are good .

Add a pulley into the system for twice the pull. Im doing it

 

 

This is a while ago now but if you're there did you buy a Maasdam and do you have any feedback? Cheers.

Thanks very much. For the money it looks like it has big potential.

Is it online? I can't find it but then the site doesn't have a search facility.

Best bit of kit you''ll buy. Had one for the last few years. So light you can use it in the tree! It's not a tirfor but winches alot faster and a hell of alot lighter. I definitely use it more than the tirfor. I use 12mm three strand from honeys cheap but effective.

Buy one!!

By the by if anyone finds where to import them from without getting hammered on delivery do please tell.

Seconded. Went onto Amazon the other night: the kit...$38. Delivered to my door... £99!

 

I had a thought the other day. If I took the steel cable out of a Halfords puller and replaced it with 3 or 4 wraps of the right thickness rope would that work as an endless rope puller? I'd need to tend the tail to maintain the wraps but I wonder...

Any tips for releasing the pawls under a lot of tension?

I like my fingers.....
