    rigging sling question

    Or you can do a 5/8ths tenex eye sling with some cordura chafe sleeve on it to prevent picking. I recently spliced up a 3/4 stable braid sling with 12" eyes on both sides this way I can wrap the sling around the rigging point as many times as needed then just put the eye with the block thru the...

    Documenting my hand-sewn eye process

    How long does it take to stitch each eye? .. those look beautiful! I still cant wrap my head around how exactly the stitching works with the thread at the front of the needle? I'm very interested to see what the break tests come in at.

    Big wood

    Aw hell, if you have a grcs with the bollard just use that, cut it and let it fly. 3/4 tenex sling will be plenty strong for almost any big load. Or like you said, get urself the Stein dual or use something like this for dual rope rigging.......let us know what you end up going with and how it...

    Big wood

    The big wood is in part 2 which he isn't done editing, but its the trunk wood that he dropped (negative blocking). My Bull Rigger is designed for very heavy loads, and so is 3/4" polydyne and 3/4" blocks. Im just suggesting you use thatrigging equipment to rig down big wood without worries so...

    Big wood

    Get a couple of x rigging slings and 3/4" blocks along with some 3/4" polydyne rope. Use the x rigging slings to spread the heavy load on multiple rigging points (if possible) if not, just negative block on 3/4" rigging and a Bull Rigger Bollard for the lowering device, Jay (moosehead) dropped...

    big rigging gone wrong vid

    Well said Reg. Some people can climb and rig wood out in a very safe manner such as yourself and others not so much. Choices is the key. It is critical that we all make the right choices while doing tree work, be it climbing or rigging...

    Splicing onto Round Thimbles

    I spliced a teardrop steel thimble on one of my long lanyards and I love it.. I didn't tighten it all the way either. I left it with a little wiggle room and it works great

I just can't understand taking shortcuts on splices. My first couple of splices took me over 2hrs each. Just...

    custom eye splicing?

    So I have a question for you guys, (Nick&Jay) would you guys say tachyon is one of the toughest to splice ? I've also been curious about 8-10mm eye to eyes? Where can I find instructions for those? I can't even begin to wrap my head around it because they are so short. And I have only...

    custom eye splicing?

    I spliced some stable braid the other day, it was definately different from the polydyne and the double esterlon I did before it. Not by much tho, just need to be a little more careful when tapering the core tail because it unravers really easy. It's like the core braid is not as tight as the...
