  1. I figured I would colour code each end and try to alternated which end I tie into and then the rope should were more evenly. Just a crazy idea I have going on
  2. Thanks Guys, Just put an order in with Honey Bros decided to go with Teufelberger Hi-Vee and got it spliced at both ends also picked up a new pinto pulley and a new liros eye to eye hitch cord. Happy days
  3. Havnt tried Stanton an hope are they reliable most people refer to them as Stanton and hopeless round here??
  4. Especially with hitch climber as it interferes with the hitch
  5. I had scorch before and caught the eye with my silky which really annoyed me. Couldn't get anyone to re terminate it as its used rope
  6. Hi guys My 200T will start but then won't rev up without stalling. It's been in an out of Browns a few times and they seem to be happy to take my money but the saw last for a dozen jobs an goes back to the same old routine. It also leeks oil everywhere when not in use from the side casing where the bar is located. Anyone in Essex willing to repair it properly? Cheers Dave
  7. Hi guys My groundie cut my climbing line in half yesterday whilst snedding up a large limb. Iv been climbing on Yale XTC for about 6 years. I like the feel of 13mm and works well with my hitch climber set up. Is there anything else i should have a look at before buying another length of XTC? Cheers
  8. I'm not convinced either way if the photo is real. It came up on my news feed on a social media site and it made me chuckle so thought it was worth sharing as I'd not seen it on here before.
  9. Just seen this pop up online. When will these people learn??
  10. Just did a little bit of reading. It is infact illegal to use red diesel on a public highway. There are exemptions for farmers who have to use parts of a public highway to access their fields but officially they are not supposed to it is just wavered.
  11. Hi guys just trying to get the allotment sorted im n the process of making some raised beds at the moment. Was going to make the paths round the allotment with chip. So I'm on the scrounge for a bit of chip. Won't be needed for maybe another two weeks. Also well rotted manure would come in handy if anyone is local I can come a grab some and stick it on the pickup. Cheers Dave
  12. Is it not easier and achieve the same thing using an endless webbing sling?
  13. I found something on gustharts that will do the job thanks
  14. Wanted to make a new lanyard with TACHYON. Can this be spliced? Wanted an eye at each end total length about 5m. Could anyone help me out with the eyes as I have never done it before would prefer someone with experiance to do it for me?? I'm based in Essex but don't mind posting or paying postage etc to get it to anyone that could help me out
  15. I also did some research on cellox type blood clotting agents a while ago when they first started becoming readily available on the market. There was various references to the fact that a lot of the agents didn't actually stop blood loss effectively without stemming tge blood flow first. There was a lot of info available at the time from military medics suggesting this was the case. I'm sure things have improved since as this was a good five years ago. Regarding spinal injuries I don't carry a spinal board on me and I'm pretty sure not many people do. I guess if someone on the team suffered a bad spinal injury at height best practice would be to try to keep the casualty as still as humanly possible and keep still once in the deck by which time hopefully someone with far more training than I have would be on scene?? Maybe Katie can assist here??
