Thanks Jay, jomoco it does have a kerf bracket that sits into a kerf cut like jay said for removals. I have dropped some big wood on it without the kerf plate and it didn't budge.. the strap sucks it down so tight it won't move unless severely shockloaded which it should not ever happen if the...
Yeah Ricky, you can hang it from a sling and biner while you position it and get it strapped in. Check out my profile) pic... That's how a stock one would come.. thanks for the compliment bro...
Here's the latest BullRiggerBollard with company initials cut out in backplate..also straps come in blue,orange,yellow and paint color is optional as well to match company colors..
Well I would post a pic but I'm having trouble.. it says the image file is too large... Wtf? Anyone know how to get around this issue? Anyways thanks again Ian...
So they just test to the break point? Just so you know that your splicing procedures are adequate? I was just thinking of tying to the ball on my truck and to a tree then just pulling on it real hard, no shockload.
I'm going to whip it and put it to use, may put it to a pull test with my truck and a tree just to see how it acts, but I followed instructions to the T and it all went just like the instructions said so I know it is strong and done right..
Damn, that's a scary situation man. I think a half hitch would have definitely helped...might have even prevented it if it was spread out enough... Either way glad everyone is ok and that log didn't go thru a roof... That would have really sucked:! Could you imagine having to get that log out...
Old fart you are the man! I love the wedgie idea.. great innovation with the x rings. I'm so glad to be in this industry at such a time where there is so many improvements and new ideas..
Tom, I'm going to be contacting some crane and sling manufacturers this week to see if I can get them tested. I'm 100% positive that the welds are rock solid and will withstand ANYTHING ANYONE can throw at them. So I would think that the wll of the strap would be the wll of the bollard. I did...
I have made 1 with dual fairleads, but the big diameter of the bollard is very helpful in preventing hockling, I have heard from others who have my bollards and they say its ended the hockling. The drum is almost twice the diameter of the large porty. But if you would want fairleads on both...
Brendon, you should come over to the dark side and check out the Bull Rigger Bollard.. available now strong light weight and reasonably priced, oh and all made in the states. Sorry for the hijack, cheers fellas
