Silky saw vs Rope

[czhey]

Wasn't expecting it to cut through that fast!

 

Its not advised 'best practice' to anchor in twice when using a silky is it? should be!

[Dean Lofthouse]

I hope you took all that old crappy rope home with you

 

What size rope was it Pete, or does it not make any difference ?

[Stephen Blair]

i once saw a demo where they pretensioned the line, im not sure how much, but probably more than the weight of a person on it. they barely tapped the silky on the rope, not even in a sawing motion and it snapped

 

:scared1:i am going to have to show the new lad this tomorrow:ohmy:

2 different 11.1mm double braids and a 12.5mm 16strand for a variation. All used but servicable cordage

What model Silky is it? Is it the Silky Apple with the tapered blade by any chance?

[David Humphries]

Very good selfless use of your time and experience Pete.

 

 

 

The next one could be, how many pairs of trollies you need to wear to combat a direct Big shot tea bag hit.

I know you told me about it but I wouldn't have believed it was so easy

Ha ha, you recognised the big shot firing range David, well done mate.

Good post Pete should make people a bit more aware off their silky.
