Simple DIY friction saver - safe / sensible?

[onetruth]

Hi! Does these look like safe/practical ways of putting in top anchor? I know neither can be set or retrieved from the ground.

 

 

Blue = Tape sling

Purple = Oval carabs

Red = Pulley

Green = Load ropes

 

I understand girth hitch (right) is only about 40% strength of basket (left).

 

I don't see either way used for lifeline top anchors (as opposed to redirects). Apart from installation/removal issues, any reason why I shouldn't climb on this?

Let's assume carabiner gates are nowhere near anything that could rub against them.

Used to do the second many years ago before moving onto pulley savers, works well esp on dismantles when you are going back up to chog down.
