    Moss Cinching Lanyard prototype

    That blue one, a tent rope tightener I gather?, looks like it might serve as a decent mechanism for an adjustable chain saw lanyard as is...

    Moss Cinching Lanyard prototype

    Would die casting or extrusion work if volume was sufficient? Would eliminate waste from milling the bulb and cutting the donut. It may be difficult to improve on using an 8.

    Moss Cinching Lanyard prototype

    Would it be an improvement to have a round bulb over the cone to eliminate sharp edge contact with the rope, provide easier retrieval and keep debris out of the the cone?

    Moss Cinching Lanyard prototype

    My 3 strand is so stiff it makes a lousy daisy chain even single but a nice lanyard in other respects. Many things a compromise I suppose.

    Moss Cinching Lanyard prototype

    Got it. Mine is also 15' though I often wish it was shorter, until I don't. There's probably a way to carry and use it doubled up (7.5') then extended to single length when needed, of which I'm just unaware. Thanks

    Moss Cinching Lanyard prototype

    @moss - can this be cinched up remotely, as in, from a distance? With or without the "quick release"? Sure be great features.

    That's a really nice offer and I will take you up on it. You're around 2hrs from me and I have a really good friend exactly half way between us for whom I did some tree work but left feeling there was unfinished business. (Our wives needed attention!) Maybe I can put together a trip. Would it...

    Ha, I've got a half dozen stores in my hand. Bought an Ocean eye-to-eye half an hour ago. The dang places are open 24/7.

    Scary to think this disease can be caught surfing the web. The only cure, a fat soon flat wallet.

    No kidding! I've got a small farm downstream just off the river in Eden. That's where I was hoping to do the other spar sets I referred to in another post. By the way, I Srt'd round trip 40' for a deer perch this morning here in the "Land of pleasant living". My HC pulley arrives tomorrow...

    @Burrapeg one of the reasons I've moved so slowly on Srt is on the first low and slow attempt I made high up through an oak my down rope was over a small protruding branch I couldn't see. It didn't break when I loaded the up rope, until I was couple feet off ground. Dumped me on my ass...

    Wish I could. Maryland's Eastern Shore: Delmarva Penninsula. 1.5 hrs South and East of Baltimore/Washington. I've looked without success but maybe you have suggestions for sources?

    I'd need an awfully strong reason to deploy that setup. Maybe if I was spending the night in a canopy hammock and wanted it out of sight. Good to know it's possible.

    I'm familiar with all of your detailed reply, including the potential for a face-planted steel snap. Thanks! I'll likely keep my steel at least until the pain inflicted by it exceeds my threshold as I've become so comfortable with the one handed activation and hitting the side D.

    Nice, thanks. That's a really compact tether. Appears you prefer a biner on your lanyard to a steel double locking snap. Is that a decision you make depending on the climb and what you'll be doing in the tree? Is the lanyard crab an auto lock? I couldn't tell in the video. I've got steel on my...
