  2. what are the views or pros/cons of the x rigging rings vs. yur average block/pulley? they are simalarly priced from what i can see but what are the revies quality/lasting etc?? thanks
  3. yes i do have a pulley, nothing major though just one of the ISC 50kn red ones, i was wondering about getting the ISC 100kn stainless steel. i am fairly new to tree work, as some people would know im only 16 so im not doing it every day or making a living from it, its more of a saturday or holiday job which i climb for a few mates of mine. this is why im not keen to be spending hundreds of pounds on expensive equipment although i do think that buy quality equipment and it will last far longer than the cheap crap. thanks Ainsley

  7. Hello i am looking to buy some rigging rope about 45-50m long, 14-16mm, as what i have at the moment is my dads old three strand blue stuff which is horrible to work with! as i have a very low budget i was wondering about looking on ebay and going second hand but i dont really like ebay all that much, also not to sure on how bad the product may be or if its scam or not! also dont think me rude, but just an enquery wondering if anyone on here had a fairly newish, or even older rope that they would be willing to sell for around the 100 pound mark give or take a bit? thanks all! Ainsley
