Just useing a natural crotch yes or cutting a spot in the spar . I would explain more ,but its an fairly unsafe and not predictable. Better to sell the guy on a block . Just thought maybe you were familiar since your lacking hardware by the sounds of it.

I thought it might be used for building a 3-holer outhouse for guinea pigs... but I'm guessing it's more like a bigass version of these...

I've seen that done, but would never try it (the spar cut; I've natural crotched plenty). This was my first year with this company and it was a bit of a shock having to deal with inadequate and/or subpar equipment after having worked for years with other companies who were prepared. I brought the topic up to my boss back in the summer and he mentioned wanting to sit down with me and do up an order of stuff I thought we should have. Then the storm hit, he went to the local industrial supplier, came back with a couple of these pulleys and a 4-ton snatch block (which has never been used), and the topic died.

Usally you can find the part, and then just copy the link at the top of your browser. Then just add the link via our stuff at the bottom, where it sat add link, just paste it into there. Cntr C (Copy), Cntr V (Paste).

Funny, how people see things differently. I see it almost like a bms belay spool. Have it on a dead eye sling, and terminal rig w/ "good" friction.

That's what I'm seeing belay spool mixed with a block. Just looking for a configuration that provides rigging line protection .

Referring to rope running against trunk? Didnt think of it until you mentioned it, tbh.
I got excited.

But don't let that deter you, it was operator error. They are decent little pulleys and will get the job done. I've even used them to block down some monster pine rounds and never had it be an issue to the ropes.[/QUOTE]
I've had that happen to that pulley too. Now I use my other cmi for mechanical advantage only no rigging in the tree

This looks cool! Would you weave the rigging line through this to have more bends in the rope? Can't wait to see a video
