    Anyone know where to rent a legitimate spider lift in MA/RI? Something 60' or over

    Find someone with Nifty Lift SD series (64 is an awesome unit). They're bigger than spider lifts so don't exactly get in the same places, but the reach is better and they move around and reset fast. They're more common thru rental companies

    Best state for climbers?

    New England has some killer areas and trees. And th regional e pay is solid for a strong arborist. Mid Atlantic states have some absolute monsters, too. The work doesn't seem as steady down that way tho in a lotnof places.

    Rope milking & adding splices to smaller diameter lines

    If I were going to run two splices, I would stretch the rope out full length and really tug on it. Maybe with a 3:1 or some sort of MA. This would help balance the core and cover before use. My guess is you would still jave some bunching of cover whole using, but if you reverse sides of the rope...

    Rope milking & adding splices to smaller diameter lines

    The reason for the milking has to do with the way the rope is made, then how it is used. The jacket is woven around the cover, essentially two separate ropes woven independently. Once used / loaded, all things equalize, mean things are stretched and now the core and jacket are balanced. Because...

    The release mechanism creeps me out. Do I really have a great reason for that? Not really. But when. I think about it deeper, what creeps me out about it is what it endures in its work life. I haven't seen a way to do a soft retrieval with it, so im apprehensive about bombing out my friction...
