    Crane slings

    The secret hand shake makes the cable, sling, or chain a bit longer. You use less in the set up. Also is a bit faster. I’ve done it and it worked like a charm.

    Aluminum Rope Brake

    I remember seeing that at the ‘17 expo as well. Liked it a lot. Doing bucket work I think it would be ok. If I’m climbing, I don’t wanna haul it up there though. It wasn’t ungodly heavy but there are lighter options to haul up. Maybe not as heavy duty though. If they sent me one to demo I would...

    Crane slings

    The hook is designed to be loaded vertically. Side loading is not recommended. The ones to the outer edges would most likely be balancers so it really shouldn’t be an issue but if something were to go wrong that’s where big brother would look

    1/2" nylon solid braid vs.

    Let us know how it works out but I’ll stick with stable braid. I didn’t read to much on it because of the low breaking strength. How’s the stretch factor?

    where can I take a course Aerial Rescue Training?

    I’ve done the aerial rescue training several times through different places. I’m in Ohio so prolly not much help. I will say that advanced first aid should be taken. The general first aid class is common sense stuff and basically tells you to get an expert in there. Hopefully taking a refresher...

    Overtime

    Like already stated with the smaller outfits, al least in my area, winter is basically lay off time. So any and all overtime is welcome. Most smaller outfits don’t offer decent benefit packages. Some do. I can’t wrap my head around guys not wanting overtime. I cut my hours back this year but...

    Legends of real tree men

    So you’re saying I shouldn’t look up to my grandfather for doing 40 years in with the postal service? Worked till he couldn’t walk his route anymore? Or my other grandfather who adopted my dad that worked till he died from cancer when I was a toddler? I never really even knew him. What I kno...

    What size rope for the rigging Ben? Looked a bit large compared to what I’m used to. It is Sunday night though and I’ve had a few drinks. Could be standard. Lovely video by the way.
