I need a new climbing system, help me...

Thanks for all the suggestions guys, looking at hitch climber and spider jack then, will check videos and see what's best, cambium saver is a must from now on though I agree. -

Vertigo Arb Ltd replied to Vertigo Arb Ltd's topic in Climbers talk
Well, I had some slip on my traditional two loop prussik so I got brave and added and extra loop. Very adventurous I know -
Hey, I've been climbing for nearly ten years on the ol' rope and prussik. About two years ago I felt adventurous and upgraded to a "triple prussik". I know what your thinking, crazy! Well, everyone and his dog seems to have these crazy systems that make life easier and I feel it's time for me to upgrade as it were. Any suggestions are welcome, fairly normal systems though, not SRT or anything. Cheers

Yep I'm going to just have to wait for a few months untill it's a bit cooler. Focus on my firewood BUT I had a go at planing one of them to see what the grain was like and I keep getting this fluffy stuff that won't plane off from any angle? Is it because the wood is wet?
-
Hmm since I only make short planks at the moment I was considering making a DIY kiln. But is it worth it? Does it speed up the process that much? Thanks
-
Very true, but I was under the impression that you will get a nicer finish the longer you season it? True?
-
Yeah I think I'm going to spend the next few weeks milling everything and stacking it out of site somewhere so I forget about it! Hmm good idea I will have to get some and do it to the stuff I have already. Shame I don't have any dry stuff for this year

Lovely thanks James. Ill try and find a spot for them. I just want them Now though so frustrating lol
-
I have lots of it

Hey, I have two acacia planks I milled a few days ago, they are partially dry because they have been in log form for a few years. They still seem a bit damp though, they are an inch thick. How long to dry inside my shed stacked with a spacer between them? Roughly... It's really nice wood I don't want them to spoil. Thanks
