Used Saw Pod?

pigwot · Sep 18, 2014

Anyone have an old or used Sawpod (leg attachment for a handsaw) youmight want to get rid of cheap?
I want to try something out and don't want to drop $30 on a new one.

The thirty seems steep for the risk, but IMO it's worth it. Since getting mine I've not looked back. It can be a little warm, but no warmer than a saddle on your back. I hope this helps.

Can't help with the old one but I second Crimson, I really have no complaints about mine. Well worth $30.

Dude says he wants to try something out. Sounds like he has an idea to modify or destroy one and doesn't want to pay retail in case it's a bust.
Glad y'all like it. I may have to try one someday.

Thanks for pointing that out. I need to read more carefully next time. Sorry about that pigwot. What are you using it for?

He ain't going to tell you. If it works out, in 6 months we'll be buying it from TreeStuff (and laughing going to the bank) and if it doesn't no one will ever know.

Sorry,
I was away for a bit... just saw these replies. Not a mystery; I just figured a sawpod might hold a knee ascender for a ropewalker setup without the HUT or bungee cord or strap over the shoulder, though it might just haul on the knee and leg too much. You're correct, I don't want to (nor at the moment do I have) waste $$ on a trial use that might tear it up if I cut it up or drill holes in it or ...

Adam, That is great. If it works out I might make an original one from scratch that holds on more like the velcro gaff pad, to distribute the weight a little better.
