i used to use huskys till i went on my own and now i run all stihl, it took me time to work out how to mod a stihl to out perform a 254 but was well worth it when i did

ta, looks a fair bit bulkier than cobra from the pics? what are the advantages of that over cobra?

ive heard that, its beyond me as to why though!

ahh, gotcha. i havent used it yet as im still trying to find someone who will splice it for me! i might end up using it as a footlocking rope. the rope feels a bit softer to the fly though, i am quite eager to try it out!

which rope, the velocity?

i think rfs would probably serve you better, its more recognisable, especially by homeowners. In the states the ISA is much more recognized it seems....it would be nice for it to be the same here. ive yet to meet a homeowner who has a clue what the ISA is other than somewhere you can put your money! im sure it would make you more employable though in answer to your question

Does anyone here do any ammount of bracing? its something i enjoy doing but rarely do. most customers tend to turn their nose up at the price. Last tree i braced i used the Gefa system from treeworker and it works out more reasonable but its still a job to sell!

how big is the file?

what can ya do though!!

mark, this is something that has been discussed severeal times. the best one ive heard yet was i believe from peter. if you have secured your footlock line ie with a butterfly run up to the tip, you need only tie your friction hitch to the secured end of the doubled line. sounds confusing i know, do you follow?
