    Rope Wrench - Hitch/Rope compendium.

    So I'm not the only person who thought of da Vinci when first seeing those drawings.

    Rope Wrench - Hitch/Rope compendium.

    Brilliant stuff, Brocky. This is like watching Star Trek. "Where no man has gone before."

    Rope bridge, finally. Now what knot?

    @samsquatch; Vermeer is affiliated with Sherrill, and Sherrill sometimes has stock for sale within the showrooms of the Vermeer locations. I'm not sure whether or not they put stock in every Vermeer location, however. I'm just hoping it might be a possibility for you. If you use Bing or...

    Best Gloves for Climbing?

    Off topic, but would you mind sharing the circumstance that caused your injury? It might help someone else avoid the circumstance themselves in the future. Sorry for your loss of capability, but happy that you can still climb. Take care. Tim

    Rope bridge, finally. Now what knot?

    I think this means I'm going to have to start climbing with a fire extinguisher.

    Rope bridge, finally. Now what knot?

    Probably off topic and out of sequence, at this point, but I just wanted to mention the fact that Trango came out with a follow-on device that I think was supposed to replace the Cinch. I think it is supposed to have a bigger, easier to use handle on it. I have not heard much about it on the...

    UK. Two ropes at all times(USA next?)

    I think this threat is what made Reg mad when the talk of this double rope system even started. I think he felt like it was the industrial access guys trying to horn in on the arb industry and ram their standards down our collective throats. It seems to be that his fears were well grounded. I...

    How high can you throw ball?

    Are you saying that from the time you arrive with your gear to the time you are ascending the tree is usually less than a ten minute interval? Including throwing a throw ball up into the tree? If so, that level of efficiency is amazing to me. I am curious to know what your primary choice of...

    Show off them splices

    @Daveyface; Please forgive my ignorance. What is the purpose of the large loop with both ends attached to the same ring? Maybe to pass the loop around the stem and the bight through the ring to form a cinching anchor? Thanks in advance. Tim

    UK. Two ropes at all times(USA next?)

    This would be where I fall in this discussion. I like to have my options available to me, but I would prefer not to have a pencil pusher dictating how I must operate every second of every day. I'm not a pro, but if I were, it would bug me to have a needle nose trying to tell me what I must do...
