    Broken TIP

    Demonstrating a doubled and sustained load test in a challenging wooded area and a solo climb. I believe very strongly it must be sustained for an adequate period of time. NO BOUNCE unless your just setting you knots. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/eCC3maqy2ZjxVn6Q/?mibextid=oFDknk

    Components of a Self-Advancing Knee Ascender (SAKA)

    One case might be climbing with sandals or bare feet in a recreational type setting. With a second foot loop both feet can be placed in the SAKA and a foot-lock technique can be used for ascent. Under normal circumstances, If I had to leave one or the other on the ground, I would take the foot...

    Components of a Self-Advancing Knee Ascender (SAKA)

    It amazes me that this was started ten years ago and has been a primary focus for me over those number of years. So my comments here will be primarily about the bungee. For many years I used a solid rubber core with a dyneema cover. The intent was that the dyneema has a low coefficient...

    You guys are far too kind but thank you. We all do what we can.

    Sorry for the late shipping, looks like it will arrive on Friday. Couple of comments and please don't be offended for these things that you already know. My preference is the captive eye you ordered that attaches directly to your bridge. Once you become proficient at taking the body on and off...

    Decision Point Approaches

    I do believe you can add all of your costs, including court costs and attorney fees to your claim. I'm sure states differ though. Second, I used to think that the LLC would keep my name off of legal documents. In other words, they can take everything from my business but personally I would not...

    Decision Point Approaches

    @Steve Connally Steve, take the guy to small claims court. You have the time and for sure will win given your paper trail and contract. HE WILL PAY and perhaps learn not to f people over. Long time ago (like 40 years) I was doing some production concrete coring in residential neighborhoods...

    Decision Point Approaches

    Steve, I listened to your video several times the other day and thought about it since then. Seriously, it really hit home with me. I'm still not sure what to say but feel a real sense identity. For now I'll just say your skills and knowledge are what make you, that is your identity, not the...

    I gouged myself. Not one handing.

    Heal quickly and don't do that again.

    3D PRINTING

    ...and here is an interesting observation as I was looking for another tool. Not mine and I have no association.

    3D PRINTING

    Some say it takes balls of steel to be a good climber, personally I prefer to use my head. Used my 3D printer to make a little jig to hold these while I drilled and tapped.

    MARCS no longer available?

    Thank you for the suggestion.I ordered a pair and they came the other day and I will eventually get up on the roof and clean my gutters.It's been a while since i've been up there and the guys I hired last time did crap cleaning.

    3D PRINTING

    So the placard came out pretty nice. I just happened to have some magnets laying around to hold it in place.

    3D PRINTING

    Placard is coming along nicely. If someone wants just the blank frame this is a link to it with the download options available. Time permitting if someone wanted one with their own name and logo I would be willing to create it. The community has given me much and when I can, I like to give back.

    3D PRINTING

    Working on a new release of the MagBag, 3D printing is a major help. The new connection to the magnet is a printed Nylon Carbon Fiber (it may end up being just Nylon if the CF is overkill) part which makes assembly and production much easier, thus less cost. Even the clamp I use to hold the...

    3D PRINTING

    I don't think a thread for this has been started, probably for good reason, but I think there is some real value in this technology. One day, so many parts will just get printed at home like a copy of a document, but hopefully, not a copyrighted book. Anyway, this is a placard I will be...

    Notch Swinger Tool Carrier

    It took me a while as I was away but yes, I have taken a look. Very cool concept of a double swinging gate. With that I can put more stuff on my harness. ;-) Reality is that it makes things easier on and off and if I have a large bulky 'whatever' to hang, the gate will not get in the way or...

    Out of 682 search results using your name, I did not see it. (I can easily miss things too) Do you have a number? If I'm going to toy around with this, I'd like to know what the claims are. Thanks Nick

    Good question, I guess it would depend on the rope bridge material and how much a climber rocks and rolls. You have the option of the non-captivye and using a separate ring has configuration shown by @Treemuel above. Tell you what, if and when you do order, leave a note and I will provide you...

    Very cool indeed, the dual swinging gate will certainly be something to try. Is that an issued patent? or published? I kind of got where I enjoy reading those things. ;-)
