Here's what I use.... Knew I had a photo of this somewhere!

Ignoring the fact that 2 crabs are clipped together (this was only set up for a photo) Snakeanchor round the tree, fig 8 clipped into it and the climbing line soft locked off through it, asymmetric prusik on the tail clipped back to the snake anchor.

Anyone lowering can take the tail with them and clip it to themselves (even just to a loop of cord round their waist if they don't have a harness) and control the descent remotely, and let go of the rope completely if they need to with the hitch as a failsafe.

Do you mean clip the tail to the rescuer? To do that you would have to unclipped the hitch from the snake anchor and clip it to the rescuer.

Is this what you mean or am I being thick?

They show oxo's on buses but they don't sell em!

I'm too old of a pup to be pi••sed on!

Better to live one day as a lion than the rest of your life as a mouse!

You can only P**s with the c•ck you got!

Cool!

Both those setups are lacking a safety margin. If for any reason the rescuer has to drop the

line mid rescue (bees/wild dogs/falling bits of tree), you're coming down fast!

 

 

Paul, your 8 looks fairly old. Is it rated and stamped as such?

Yes it's rated and LOLER'd. It's a trade off. If you have a friction device in there you have to tend it. This means you can't walk out to the drip line to assist a casualty who may be inverted.

This is what I use.

Dont let Kit drive it!!

Dont do both ends!!!!

Isn't PEG in anti freeze? I know soaking a axe handle in it means it will never come off!

Got a 36" on mine, no problem!👍

Did you sort it? Thats definitely Ken Burns!

Another thought how long have you got each frame to play for? I use .1 of a second instead of the standard 4. If your still struggling send me a PM and I will sort out some sort of step by step explanation 🙈

You see, I put it down to seismic activity that I couldn't feel up the tree but I'll blame it on Ken Burns.

😂😂

 

 

Sent with my iPhone from me, to you!

Sorted!👍

What depth does that stick to Mike?

From memory, select all, click the icon in the top left for effects and cropping, this will show the Ken Burns in the right hand pane, select fit and check apply to all. This should solve it.

OMT, when you edit the stills select them all and click fit. This will remove the Ken Burns crop that you see panning in and out!

Static, Globe!

Comes with some double headed nails. I'm talking about fixing the guide board to the log. Not the rails to the guide board.

 

Thanks

Ah, see what you mean! quality screws does the job especially if you use an impact driver.

It comes with screws.

Like the idea but as said there may be only so many 6X2 you will need. It has potential!

They do look like good helmets but £183 + vat does make me shudder a bit.

Are they not exempt VAT?

Here!
