took out this old girl last wk.she went quietly had the crane in half way through the job,dont ask.went well over all but did get my ropes seriously coated in sap but thanks to drew that has been resolved.

bloody pine sap,Ive been taking acetone on site and wiping down the ropes and gear as we go,my missus loves the smell so not all bad.

smeared mine in butter and gave it a gd wash,came up a treat but a bit slippy on the prusik for the next few days

[coolie]

I will have to give the butter a try sometime, anchor or tararua.
