  1. At this rate I'll end up giving away more prototypes than selling production versions! :lol:
  2. I do, but I'm a creature of habit!
  3. Best stick to posting photos if pretty girls one at a time!
  4. That's a hitch I've never tried, must give it a go some time. Interesting what you say about the cinch on the left. Did it put the lever the wrong way up for you? (Incidentally I'm only awake because my 2 year old is kicking off and screaming the house down wanting to get in our bed!)
  5. Nothing really planned, last shoot tomorrow so suggest some dates! Again, suggest some dates and we'll sort something out Where are you guys exactly?
  6. I guess by the time they've sold it all and everyone's done the same, they might have a saturated market...!
  7. How's progress on the first feature then Larry Flint...?
  8. DMM rings are ally, the green Treemagineers / Teufelberger ones... Could be a manufacturing defect, might be worth contacting ISC and giving them the batch number (just been recording all my serial numbers and they were conspicuously absent from the ISC rings I noticed...) and seeing what they say....doesn't sound right for sure....
  9. Not very big! About the size of a football pitch... How much can you really do with that....? Cool idea though, pretty country...
  10. I have a true story about a situation like this.... Our firm used to fit out Asda supermarkets when they first came here. We were pretty hot on service, paperwork and health & safety. Asda insisted on speed, safety and quality. On one job my md was in a meeting with one of Asda's senior property guys while our ceiling fixers were finishing in the store. At the end of the meeting, having gone through how the job had gone and had a pat on the back for our systems of work and procedures, my md and the Asda guy walked out into the store. They were immediately met with the sight of our ingenious ceiling fixers finishing off an inaccessible area which they couldn't get to with a tower. They had calculated that 5 of them sitting on the end of a youngman board on top of an 8x4 scaffold tower, would counterbalance the weight of a 6th man sitting on the cantilevered end of the 10' youngman board , 6 feet out from the scaffold and 6 metres off the ground.... The Asda man just put his head in his hands and walked off.... I think that was the last job we did for Asda....!:lol:
  11. Time for independent adjudication.... Post count please! :lol: Yes, it will be anodised. No, it will not be essential.
  12. No doubt uploading them onto your favourite thread :lol:
  13. No it wasn't, the first one was TERRIBLE! :lol:
  14. This is not a problem for REAL men... I love my 460. The 461 could well be even better though ....unless all stihl's are now being designed by accountants and europhile environmentalists with a boner for stuffing microchips into everything of course...which seems possible....
  15. Presumably just the shame of a terrible pun. Hang your head in shame mr Bourne.... :lol: Great vid though. I love over engineered solutions
  16. When you say dimpled do you mean you've worn a groove onto it where the rope runs through? I have a multisaver with dmm rings on which has not suffered like this so can't really comment, have isc ring on new strop but only to clip into. What rope are you on? It's not dirty and gritty is it?
  17. Ha! What a terrifying innuendo! :lol:
  18. 460 is an awesome saw and a classic. If you buy one you won't be disappointed. If you don't you could well be.... I would buy the 460 while you still can...
  19. I doubt very much I will make anything out of it, but I PROMISE that anything i do make will be spent on bikini girls at trade shows for the benefit of you lot....
  20. Depends where you are, I'm going to avoid pushing one sponsor over another because I know they all give great service. I am very happy with the one I buy from the most, I think their prices, service and delivery times take some beating! If you're after a kit to tie in with what you learn at college I'm not the best person to ask because I've not been nor done the CS climbing units, but when I started climbing on a blakes hitch I had a 35m rope, 1m ish split tail, handful of crabs, micro pulley, harness and then added to it from there. I now have a rather large kit for the amount I actually climb.... I need to inventory it actually, might start tonight!
  21. Nothing nearly so exciting! IF IT WORKS, it will be one of those little things which lives in the kit and is used without even noticing or thinking about it....
  22. Nothing to report at the moment. I need to check in and see how the prototyping is progressing!
  23. Or 'plogs' for short..... 'Mendi plogs' still makes me chuckle....!
  24. Yes, i imagine it will save a few quid against buying individually, but it's probably not exactly the kit you'd put together yourself, there will be things you don't need and things missing. What system do you climb on? Personally I'd start from scratch. Will get precisely what you want and you'll probably spend less....
  25. I have a springer called bramble. I swear he's retarded. Bloody cretinous animal....
