    [ QUOTE ] also,how do you make apicture as an attachment rather than having it show right up in the post...? [/ QUOTE ] I've been busy today getting somewhat caught up with the site and have noticed your wont to embed images hosted at photobucket.com. At least they've seemed to be reasonably...

    Jonsered saws

    Unless something has changed in the past six months or so, Jonsereds and Husqvarnas are exactly the same but for cosmetic details. If you like Husqy you should be happy with the prettier version.

    What camera is the best?

    Hi guys. I miss you too. Been real busy lately and had to rearrange some priorities. I'll take the compliment above any day. I'm waiting for a reasonably-priced digital body which I can stick my Contax Zeiss glass onto.

    PDF image for Mahk

    Sorry for the spam, everyone else! If this ain't the right one let me know. If you want, I can attach a zip file of every image in the PDF; the zip file is 914722 bytes.

    Throwlines or throw-knots

    I've got a permanent loop big enough to easily get around the bag. I "girth hitch" the ring with the loop. I've also got a wire-wound bead on the line to provide a consistent grip, with a stopper knot about a forearm's length up the line. Being able to slip, the bead doesn't get stuck in...

    km3 ?

    I was musing over SDdRT and DDdRT.

    Wow, I'd forgotten just how complicated that one was!

    [ QUOTE ] The runner is in two places but I chose to mask off one. [/ QUOTE ] I'm thinking he was in it 3 times if you removed him once! See the attachment.

    Why did you steal the Kliens? :)

    Thanks, Eric. I have worn and do wear many hats, but whatever it is I'm doing at the time I do it in the nerdiest fashion possible :)

    Kong Dual Ascender

    I think Dan's was very near that but somewhat different in the details (perhaps it was a bit more complicated -- I've slept since then...). By the way, I've forgotten to thank you for the helmet stickers so want to do that now. What do you guys win when you become the world champion...

    Kong Dual Ascender

    There was extensive discussion on this topic over at arborist[sic]site a couple of years ago: http://new.arboristsite.com/showpost.php?p=216408&postcount=75 Gord showed it photographically with the exception being he'd used web strap instead of prussic cord...

    this a test

    I wouldn't want to be responsible for or take part in any editorial activity. Just helping keep things running smoothly in the technical aspects. One thing I'd definitely do would be to have a routine on the server make dialup-friendly-sized versions of all images (if/when needed) and offer...

    Kong Dual Ascender

    Okay, so the top unit loses its ability for some reason to grasp the rope on one side and it happens to be on the "small ring" side of the false crotch. How do you climb to the top to retrieve your gear? It's a rhetorical question. I know you properly back up the lower ascender with some...

    2006 ITCC Loring Park Panorama

    Quality software expertly used on good material. About the only glitch that catches my eye is just to the right of the Husqy trailer (if the trailer itself really had a stepped roof). A really neat effect could have been had if the runner were to have been captured twice, both coming and...

    I keep telling people I'm a quality individual but few seem to believe me :) If I had administrative access to (at least Mark's corner of) the server I could fix this type of stuff, as well every bit of what's cropped up as problems in the (recent; or since I've been here) past. I keep telling...

    Kong Dual Ascender

    "crap out" in this case would mean to self-release (i.e. fail) Not likely, I know; but stranger things have happened. Next time you have a few minutes, take a length of prussic cord and:<ul type="square">hold it horizontally with both handsplace it, on "your" side of the ropes, just above the...

    The making of a carabiner

    Dollars to doughnuts that "extruded wire" is an alloy.
