    Rigging failure

    I consider myself a student of the game that is still teachable. The challenge will be relaying this info to my Latinos

    Is this legit?

    Rigging failure

    I was taught the highest block set absorbs more of the load. Is this accurate?

    Rigging failure

    I think I follow. What if the blocks were installed where the orange dots were

    Rigging failure

    10 in beech maybe 6 feet long. Traveled enough to clear the bucket and was slowly stopped 20-25 below.

    Rigging failure

    The purple dot represents the point of failure. The red dots were where the blocks were placed. Probably could've done a better job spreading the load through the canopy. Maybe even a third block depending on the cut

    Rigging failure

    He placed two blocks on a codominate stem and the lead with the hypoxolyn canker failed at the canker. Not a large piece, but a trivial amount of dynamic load

    Rigging failure

    He had two blocks in the tree, in adjacent leads, to dissipate the load. The failure occurred next to the bucket in a patch of hypoxolyn canker. Piece wasn't large although a small amount of dynamic loading took place

    The piece being lowered wasn't very heavy either. Just wanted to remind everyone.

    Rigging failure

    Sorry. Hypoxylon canker on American beech may have comprised the structural integrity of the lead in question. Two arborist blocks were placed in adjacent leads to dissipate the load.

    I'm kinda sorry to see the lack of support. I have been in the biz for 21 yrs now. Resources are tight with 7 kids, but anything I can do. Hang in there brother
