  1. Not if your rope is 11mm.
  2. Plastic strip available from most diy merchants that you make into a loop. Sometimes called a ziptie. Haha nothing technical I'm afraid
  3. Christ. Don't start drilling the holes in the hc to make them bigger. Haha
  4. Mongoose krabs don't go through the holes in the hc? The shape doesn't work.
  5. Could you get enviro agency to let's us do what we want with our "waste"?
  6. I'm still struggling to see the difference in the two pics. Is that me being daft or a credit to your work?
  7. Which slot have you been putting your tie wraps in?
  8. To be honest the 22% was maybe a slight exageration. Haha
  9. The zubat has a small hole in the handle. Use some small accessory cord and clip it to you harness using a small cheapo crab. Also means you can't drop it when cutting aswell. You can get some thin twirled bungee cord kinds like an old phone cord from somewhere
  10. Haha that's amazing. He's looking up as if to say. "how am I gonna get up there"
  11. I'm actually back on the iPhone, sneaking it cos she's woke up. Haha
  12. Haha. We are but humble tree cutters. We need diagrams and proper explanations to understand things. People who use mongoose crabs can't use hc's cos they don't fit.
  13. Oh right. Haha. From the pic they looked like the size of a field mouse.
  14. only 22% of my input is of any use to anyone haha mostly it is the spoutings of a madman. Marks comments were ridiculous. I agree.
  15. Sorry to take the mick slightly but I have just had an idea for an improvement on another product. Maybe they could make webbing slings much thicker and bulkier then they wouldnt put people off using them because they look too skinny next to ropes. Please dont do a cry at me.:001_tt2:
  16. Me too, but I get caught and shouted at:blushing:
  17. Is that pic fully zoomed in then??? how big are they in real life??
  18. Nobodys taken offence at all bud. Draw us a diagram of how it can be improved???
  19. No, im actually on the PC, she is asleep on the sofa. But I have been known to take a little longer in the bog. Takes me 3 hours to wash up, wash a mug, check arbtalk, wash a fork, check arbtalk. you get the picture. Waters cold when i'm finished.
  20. WTF are those black bugs, we dont get anything like that in Hull???
  21. I get banned from time to time by the missus. When i log on there is 2345 unread posts and i am only allowed an hour, how am i meant to see everything. The only reason i am on so much now is cos im running on my iphone through my wireless so i can check up whenever i want sneakily hahahaha Thats not a joke by the way. That is my life.
  22. Freedom of thought and speech are not looked down upon here??? apart from swearing (no need Mark:001_tt2:) Its just your idea has no legs. Its not gonna run anywhere. Im sorry but its not. It seems to me as if you would be down grading the product somehow. The idea was to make your knot in someway not interfere with your hitch, easy, put a sling and biner inbetween harness and knot. Job done. How can the "look" of something put you off?? They are rated for a reason and get used all day everyday for many things.
  23. thread closed. haha
  24. Thats just the best thing i have ever seen.
  25. Looks it mate. Im having some. What climbing system were you using or was someone just slack tending for you???
