    I like the cut of your jib! I did think of that but my concern would be the biner clunking against the winch and scratching it up Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

    I'm pretty set on having the bollard and the winch both fixed on at the same time. What happens is you ask the ground person to switch something on the device but they couldn't be bothered, so you end up doing something else to avoid an argument. My core-concept is that the work becomes easier...

    I am adding those. I'd really like to hear how they were broken so I csm avoid any design flaws Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

    ah the rope angle deflector that enables the operator to stand anywhere instead of just at 90° to the drum. Is that right? Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

    I'm not quite sure what you mean mate. The winch does "ratchet" in a sense... Which device do you normally use? There are a couple of devices which have a simple 1:1 ratcheting drum, are you used to one of those? Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

    There are some distinct advantages of having a bollard and a winch together. There's some cool tricks which I'm sure I'll demonstrate in some promotional videos in due time! Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

    I have fairleads on the prototype pictured in my original post which I'd like to use, if they do well in testing. The main function of the fairlead is to provide an approximately 8° angle of rope entry on to the winch drum to prevent overlap. Beyond that, they aren't meant to be load bearing. I...

    I'm instigating various types of rubber mounts. It's super important that it not damage the tree for pruning and situations where the device is mounted to a different tree than the one being removed. Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

    great feedback guys. I have been wondering if 2 ratchet straps would be too much set up. I had a personal preference for 2 straps for security, but it's also important to me to that set up be both fast and easy. 3/8" is too small for sure! What rope diameters do you normally use for your...

    I am building a rigging device and I'd like to know what exactly you look for in a tool of this type. The device will have a yacht winch for lifting and probably a small bollard above the winch for dynamic rigging (negative rigging/blocking down). The idea is that the device be smaller...

    the one I'm making for myself is almost finished. However, it isn't actually the unit I'd like to deliver to the public. I'm using a second hand harken 44 which is very similar to the winch used on the grcs. the device i actually want to make will have the same basic design but feature a smaller...

    13mm and 14mm. The one I showed in the photo is actually just one I'm building for myself. The unit that I think the market needs would have a smaller winch, suitable for the rope diameters you mentioned and with a single speed, power ratio about 18:1. I would like it to be no more than half the...
