that was my monday morning im soooo maaaaaaaaddd face:001_tongue: matty its a 3ft bar on the 390, it pulled it fine through the poplar but i will be sending it to be ported before its next outing:thumbup1: the platform is a 20m, to be honest we had to take a fairly healthy sized top and go with some fairly hefty rigging to clear the limbs on the back side as it wasnt quite big enough:blushing:
-
good sized pop takedown, fairly extensive decay at base, lots of old storm damage scars throughout crown and worrying 3 large wounds with decay on the compression side around the main union. lots of rigging and lots of timber, stump left at about 10ft and regrowth will be managed accordingly photos in a weird order

imo the rope guide is worth every penny, the difference in friction is huge

nice work mate:thumbup1: spliced a large loop this morning with added braided wire for another rope guide, not sure if the wire is quite thick enough but this was only a practice one really

sorted

3metre ropeguide, got 2 big dismantles in the next 2 weeks so this will be ideal for chokeing round the stem when chogging down
-
my first 16strand splice was a nightmare, i ended up with many blisters and very sore hands. slow down, think about what your doing, what the ropes doing and what you want the rope to do. think about trying to create space within the rope, this can all be achieved by milking and masageing the rope im very much a novice when it comes to all this splicing malarky but have found that its not as hard as it seems or you would think
-
when i do set it up properly i tend to use a cinch(only because thats all i have), but then you dont have an anti panic feature like the petzl id
