    in the picture i've just tied a single fishermans but doubled it now, i'll get a few more pictures up later of the whole thing from scratch.

    had a good climb on it and give it some stick just to see if the base twists would tighten up but they didn't as for the retrieval i know what you mean but after a couple of climbs i guess i'll find out if it does or doesn't but on the first attempt it came out a treat. we shall see.
  20. Adam Bourne
    thanks mate, have you seen it before.
  21. Adam Bourne
    yes mate very well.

    sorry for being long winded. I have the pinto on a rope guide but don't like the idea of splicing eyes into the pinto its self, so then i can use it else where, so the next thought would be the spacer, but don't have one so then i used 2 double fishermans onto each eye of the pinto but found the knots real bulky and found retrieval hard. so then jelte prussic but found this to bulky on the rope guide, so now it kept me awake all night last night thinking and i came up with this. sorry if its already been done, or thought of or even has a name, but hope this helps everyone whos had the same problem.
  23. Adam Bourne
    great photos people, please keep them coming. love the swan matt:thumbup1:

    nice to see it turned out well david, so you have any future management for the oak, or are you going to wait a little while longer. to me it has come back quite vigorous, is the tree showing any signs of growth to compensate the loss of the limb.
