    ? on what would be a good stopper knot

    I'm going to buy a radio remote choker bell or two and use them with my crane. This way I can set my picks down and release them without having to leave the tree and go untie them. I went employee-less recently and not going to hire again, 23 yrs was enough, this is the cheapest step in...

    Serius Rope Outer Sheath Failure

    The odd thing I've never seen before with any other rope is I noticed my Sirius rope would get hard, like a pipe after I would use it for a speedline. You could hold it and it would stick out horizontal for like maybe 18-20 inches after speedlining. It would get softer when you stuffed it...

    Bend Right Rigging Ring

    shown here is the now "old", Notch beast ring, which was made to my fat specs and made by Rock Ex. Current rings now have no Notch logo, just X-Rigging Ring on them and now made by Harken (yes, the USA sailing tool company that's been around since 1967 that makes extremely high quality stuff...

    Bend Right Rigging Ring

    the fish eye lens of the phone taking pictures pulls in the view and makes it look 1 to 2 mm smaller due to distortion. Really need a verneer (sp) caliper to measure exactly.

    Bend Right Rigging Ring

    Just to clear up something, 38x28 on the Beast X-Rigging Ring is simply the numbers for the big hole in the middle 38mm hole and 28mm for the grove trench. Outside dimensions of current Beast ring made in the USA is bigger than the original that I had antal making in Italy. Outside size of...

    ? on what would be a good stopper knot

    Hey knot experts. What do you think would be a great stopper knot for this application? Instead of steel cable with a swage at the end. I want to use rope, (a high strength dyneema core and outer double braid jacket, like 'Amsteel 2 Plus Coated' likely). I want a stopper knot at the...

    thank you all ! I'm coming out of the bad times. Evo, you sent me plenty of pictures of that tree ,then 2 or 3 years ago I turned an old dwarf tree (Chamaecyparis obtusa variety Nana) into that avatar tree of yours, best I could. It was my favorite plant. Then a freak rain and flood ravaged...

    Arbor-X in Maryland

    The video should accomplish a lot of screening in many ways. I'll talk about it after someone is hired. It will push a lot away, even piss off a lot of people....... shouldn't talk about it right now though.

    Oh crap, now I get why u care Reg. Yeah, it sucks to have the rug pulled out from under you. Not "you" exactly, but I know what u mean. While you and I wouldn't do something like that to someone, others don't give a crap when all they care about is money. What is legal and what makes money...

    TreeStuff and SherrillTree Join Forces

    From my experience, I've had EXACTLY the opposite experience with both companies. I'm staying out of anything related to TS as best I can, but I can't let someone badmouth Sherrill when Sherrill has been a Godsend for me. So I'll just focus on the positive and the positive is Sherrill. Keep...

    what's in your rigging bags?! Show em up !

    No Levi. Not yet. But it will happen. I have all the video to do it. Just need time. To be honest, I've been close to the breaking point financially, mentally and on the edge of ruining my family due to investing in time and money into promoting the rings to the industry and almost having no...

    what's in your rigging bags?! Show em up !

    Who else made it in before the cut-off in the early pages, where I said I was sending a free XRR sling to? Robert21157 wrote me a PM. And I know John Uselding bought a safebloc on preorder from Xtreme. I've been out of slings for a long time, cause the splicing guy has been cutting fire...
