    For a few months now, I’ve been working with a new upgrade to my BDB that I really enjoy. So, those with a non adjustable version might be interested. I drilled a hole, installed a phenolic ball knob with thread lock, then milled down the bolt head with a grinder. It’s really ergonomic. I’ll...

    No, perhaps my previous photo was misleading. I’ll try and post a better one. Basically, because of my chair the rope is getting fed through my BDB at an angle. Whereas, if you’re in a tree harness the rope hangs pretty much directly below you & feeds straight in. Regardless, it’s...

    I’m selling 2 new BDB’S that I purchased last January. They are unused, except for one, which I did one rappel on. I actually purchased 3 all together last January.
