It’s a new one on me as well. I’m also liking the rope brush in the vice, looks much easier than using it in your hand 👍

I second this.

Thanks! Its o so much easier, especially with a bucket underneath it too! It is a big 40L thing. Catches all the water and can feed the rope back in or out to clean it again.

Lol 😂 that’s mad have you any idea what type of butterfly 🦋/ moth it is ? Never seen climbing gear chewed seen plenty of fishing tackle chewed  by mice or moths what’s been in the garage 👍 

I think it is a Puss Moth caterpillar from my own searching, though someone else, as well as Paul above, have mentioned it might be an elephant hawk moth.

Hi All. Did a small take down on a willow tree recently, packed the kit away and pulled it out 2 days later to clean and discoved a passenger. Anyone ever seen/had this happen to them? Had to fail the rope as it had gone through 4 of the outer and one of the inner strands creating its cocoon.
