New rig for shinning up Washingtonias...
(Idea stolen from some guys down in Maui. ((...you know who you are.)).
I just modified the otherwise useless butt-seat to create a lighter and more compact version.
This is THE smoothest RW/(whatever) combo I have found (...in my bag,) to date! but apart from the issue suggested by the title, can anyone see a potential problem with this setup,
...other than shortening/neatening-up that long, asymmetric, tether!...and a regular change of pants?:
I can't...
Hello. I'm a 'tool-a- Phile. I'de like to celabrate those tools we have,in our bags, in our pouches, on our belts, and in our trucks... (trucks and rolling stock not included)
...Those tools that, though our wives and mothers could never understand, make the risks, early mornings (...and...
Love the look of this setup:
, it's compact! but, I tried reproducing it with what I had at hand and:
And it would invariably 'flip' into this configuration!!
...Functions fine still, but the line running across the barrel like that can't be ideal right?!!..must be tying it wrong!

Hi all.
I made this whoopie rope bridge adjuster for my NT Onyx out of a 12 inch scrap of Amsteel I had lying around, and a bit of electricians tape.
Works like a DREAM!!!
The idea seems so simple, I can't be the only one who's had it!!!
Any thoughts are very welcome.

As a child, my feet rarely touched the ground. Forever in trees, on roofs or garages, or or at least head in the clouds!!
Only after passing through many! trades and 'career paths', (...some desks involved...) for the last 9...
Here's a quick prototype of a folding micro grapnel hook for line retrieval, made from crap that I had in the bottom of my toolbox!
All you need is in the first pic.. at the bottom... (because I'm not sure how to put images where I want in my posts!..)...add extra shaped chain-link for four...
Hey. Looking for ideas for stuff to do with that dead weight on my harness...
...(dead weight until it's needed to save my life... or other such mundane tasks!..)
Here's what I've come up with so far:
Pic #1 is a 8mm OP prussic loop used as saw bridge. ( fig8 knot to shorten it up.)
Pic #2...
Trying out this!..
It's kite line, used for kite surf n such. Here it is next to the same length of Zing-it!!:
...and it runs smooth as silk, even when twisted!
Hi, I'm not sure if this should be posted here or in some 'misc kit' thread some place else, so move as you (gods).. see fit, or i'll move it after... if I work out how! ...

(cogs/pistons = sense!,
microchips = witchcraft/aliens!!!)...
we all know (ultimately) time is money!...
I'm...
