In Desperate times...My Silky saves the day!

[silky fox]

Nearly got my ZigZag today...but i wasn't at home so it was taken to the nearest Post Office... But they couldn't find it when i went there..returned home and called Parcel Force who said it WAS signed for at the P.O....returned again but they still couldn't find it...i've given them 24 hours to find it...i was really looking forward to trying it on some nice Planes on my 11.7mm...oh well....tried my mates on an Oak...i'll leave my judgement until i can use a thinner rope...13 mm is too thick imo.

Double loop bowline, nice...... Will the zigzag draw me away from my spiderjack though? As a shiny thing whore, I need the down low.

Out o interest Silky, when you're on Ivy covered trees do you sever it?

Is it part if the job spec or does the surveyor ignore it?

If it's not on the spec do you sever it anyway?

Hi mate. Loving the thread as usual. Is there too much friction on the ZZ from 13mm?

[silky fox]

Not a lot of friction Frosty...but enough to want to use it with our favourite and you still wear yours on your head! Thanks Guy..I am as always pushing onwards and upwards...I now realise my potential and it is as a crew leader or manager...and yes ivy is great habitat but most spec on our works orders is severing the ivy...
