Wicked tune!

The answer to that question is long and complex, if you dare delve into the angry kid thread you may find what you seek.

Well, when you own as many ropes as me, it is easy to get some of them mixed up. I'm sure you have much the same problem!

Or go Clinton style and have a precoitial cigar....

That colour will be easier to mark for splicing too. Nice one Bob!

Why thankyou kind sir, will you be joining me for the cheese and port course?

Problem solved!

What i need is some pudding

How much did that set you back, if you dont mind me asking?

Its worse than we feared. Temporal leaks are evident even at signature level, owing to particule matter leaks accelerating at infinite speed through a quantum quarkspace. Its all gone a bit pete tong.

Hmm, further disruptions in the space time continuum seem to be evident. Further research is needed here methinks. I'll consult Hex, you light some dribbly candles!

If this is the trousers of time, I think we have just reached the knees! Expect further cosmic chaos!

Be careful in there Jason. Any slight disturbance in the balance of the matrix coupling and the very fabric of the universe will be torn apart, sucked into a black hole, and compressed into the size of a single woodlouse. Plus we would all end up with Mr Ed's arse.......

Marlow military abseil rope, same stuff we used for the zipline at the last get together.

Attached directly to an anchor, the load exerts force in one direction, down. Attached elswhere, and then run through a crotch, the leg of rope with the load attached to it exerts the same force, and the other leg of rope exerts an equal force on the anchor. (assuming there is no friction in the anchor point. If the force on either side becomes unequal the load moves. Imagine you are lowering a piece with a pulley. To lift it by pulling your end of the rope down requires the same effort as it would to lift the piece directly. The pulley at the top is effectively doing both jobs simultaneously, therefore the loading is twice that of the actual weight of the load.

That should do it!

The quadski is what you would buy if you had a quad, a jetski, and a lake, and still had enough loose change to buy one on a whim.

Go advanced, then click manage attachments. You can then upload pics. To embed pics or video from other sites, click the postcard icon at the top of the quick reply box and cut and paste the address into the pop up box. hope that makes sense!

Is product development technically effective or unecessarily complex?

That is the exact same knot, tied but not dressed. -

The helical is a cavers knot, try one of their websites for full instructions. I normally tie it with a shorter leg, have it closer the the biner, and put the slack tending pulley straight on the biner, but each to their own. Make sure the cord is strong enough to take the loading on a single leg though. -
Write him a nice letter, mention that his letter is dated 18000 years in the future, and that you'll deal with the issue then........
