  4. Yes he ask if it would fit through the spacer........not the pinto eyes. I was not jumping down your throat but if some newbie had seen that and no one had pointed out that you should not connect rope,slings whatever it is your connecting to the pinto like the way in your photo, then what do you think they would be doing???

  6. That should not be used like that mate you risk queezing the two side cheeks together, causing it to fail and more than likely injure someone..... Always use the spacer when fitting direct to textiles

  18. Well said andy and just what I have been saying all along. The husky was not on sale at the apf for the reason if they had given dealers a load of them to sell then they would of put them on low price sale there for husky thought this would devalue there product so waiting till october and then putting them on sale would eliminate that risk. In huskys defence all the way when they first brought out the saw 2 years ago they had problems but problems they could not help....the carb was one as they had the carb sorted then when they started to build things were off, they could not work out why?until the carb manufactors told them that they were using different carbs there for making a butterfly affect on the rest of the saw, now for those who did attend the show and ask why it was not for sale would of received this info, but clearly no one was bothered enough to listen.......or maybe it was the case of yeah yeah heard it all before......I don't know. I do know though that once it's out I think it will ruin the ms 201t.......

  20. What carabina are you using mate? I'm assuming it's oval because anything else will offset the pinto and will cause to to bend under load! And also the gate opening may be a big factor. If it is oval I am assuming it would be alloy? That is your weak Linc right there, light rigging yes but there not designed for heavy loads! I like the idea of the whoopie direct to the pinto, that way my sling is my weak Linc but still stronger than the carabina and also making it less hardware intensive and neat.

  22. So here's my attempts over the the last 24 hours on and off 9mm Samson tenex 2 adjustable whoopies with pinto rigs attached and a 4M spiderleg ballencer ......not bad really for £22 considering a spiderleg is around the £45 mark....? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

  24. Me to mate was crashed out still from working week.....I will next time though buddy... I know mate just joking, would of been awesome to meet you though. That's the thing about shows, the bigger they are the more of us turn up yet you never get a chance to really chat to everyone, the smaller the show and the less of us turn up which in turn you still don't get to meet everyone....
