  1. I don't think that I over engineering the problem, why not make something better when it could be done ? even if it is something as simple as a throw bag Besides I just like to experiment with different materials, to check how they will perform in a variety of applications and conditions...and of course for training and fun. ps. sorry guys and girls for my poor English
  2. Hi ! I was wondering how leather throwbags takes abuse ? The bottom loop is to attach additional throw bag if needed or spliced rope with small binner. But those are not all options [emoji1] Wysłane z mojego Nexus 5 przy użyciu Tapatalka
  3. Are you happy with Liros ? never used it. My favorite is Gleistein Polyethylene throw line. Gleistein - Productsheet: Throw Line PE It's a little bit stiff and not as as strong as Liros but really cheap and very slick, you can get it in 100 meters spools for something like 12 GBP.
  4. Yes, it's much safer for you and for the environment if the bag burst, also in addition if you are using shot with a high chromium content you do not have to worry about rust coming out of your throw bags if they get wet ( compared to regular high carbon shot ). On the other hand throw bags with steel shot are much bigger than lead shot because of density of steel ( 7,87 / cm3 ) vs. lead ( 11.34 / cm3 ).
  5. I plan to do it in the next series, in addition it will be made of a different kind material and other thread, to be specific it will be aramid woven fabric ( with a rubber bladder inside ) and spectra thread but only if I'll be able to get needle for this kind of thread.
  6. Hi, just want to show you another set of my DIY throw bags. from the right to left the weight is: 1. 180 gram - 6.3 ounces 2. 320 gram - 11.2 ounces 3. 320 gram - 11.2 ounces 4. 420 gram - 14.8 ounces 5. 400 gram - 14.1 ounces Those two heaviest are filled with steel shot and works great with magnets. First crash-tests passed successfully, but there are still few things to improve. what do you think ?
  7. Hi Lako ! It may look different but those are the same harness and there are three models. http://www.polskiarborysta.pl/uprzaz-treeup-th050-p-367.html http://www.polskiarborysta.pl/uprzaz-treeup-th030-p-366.html http://www.polskiarborysta.pl/uprzaz-treeup-th020-p-365.html I've got the basic model th020 and to be honest the only reason i've got it is the price :-D you really cant get anything else for that money specific for tree climbing. Best regards and stay safe ! Wysłane z mojego Nexus 5 przy użyciu Tapatalka

To be precise those harnesses are made in Poland by "Protekt" company and then rebranded to treehog etc. you can get it for about 550-600 PLN brand new ( about 100 GBP ).Those you can buy in Poland are green insted od orange. If you want to know more just ask me :-) Wysłane z mojego Nexus 5 przy użyciu Tapatalka

  11. Hello there ! I'm completely new here and want to say hello I left my life as a corporate rat and decided to combine both my love to rock climbing and trees and become an arborist. I did chainsaw operator and logger license, did tree worker course (arborist course) and started working on trees. I'm here mainly because I want to learn something new and meet new friends. Cheers from Poland ! Piotr ps sorry for my poor English
