Yes it does .....has said first crack at it and it has sat there for 6 months now has I very rarely have a need .....it did work very well when I lowered them branches . We all make mistakes .

Thanks .

I wasn't having a dig, just thought I'd question it before something happened not so fun. One last thing, buy some leather gloves (ones used on the rigs or whatever), allows for you to let the rope run through your hands without getting "warmed up" to much and gives you more control. Happy Rigging IVECOKID👐

All advice appreciated ....have some leather gloves but has said I avoid the bigger rigging jobs has I am a one man band , this job was a love job and I put a line in between 2 trees to to use has a washing line affect to lower the branches down off the dead tree in the middle of the 2 trees .Tree had been dead for over 5 years so very brittle so very little climbing and felling was not a option.
