    Tree Squeeze DIY

    Good deal there. What is the stiffest static rope I can buy to make one? Or would I just be better off buying a friction saver from arborist supply, and if I go that route, any suggestions on one with a stiff rope? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Tree Squeeze DIY

    So, I did a little more searching. It looks as if a friction saver type setup is a good option. If I’m off track, please advise. I need a length of static rope, tie in a loop or rated ring, a prussik with another ring tied in, thread my linesman rope through these rings and set each end far...

    7 bolts to 21 feet high

    I got a piece of 1/2” hose today for foot comfort. I think I have the distance dialed in for the correct loops, gonna put some tape in them so they stay open. I can see why someone would use amsteel and just a couple of loops.

    7 bolts to 21 feet high

    Any tips on keeping eyes open on a web daisy aider I got s from EWO? I have been using bolts for a few seasons. Saw this post and tried it, works well other than I have to fiddle around to get the eye opened and on the bolt. Kinda aggravating. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Sewing Resources and Information

    Need some help, I bought a Singer 15-91 (I think) has the potted motor. Wires and connectors hanging loose. Looks like someone started to rewire it. I know I am missing a screw that holds the 3 wire plug deal to the machine. Also looks like there are thumb screws that hold the terminal ends to...

    I bought the 15-91, looks like a 1950 model. I’ll be trying to clean and lube it up soon. The pedal was not connected, and the wires for the light and motor are just hanging out. I found some diagrams, after some reading it sounds like I need to take motor off and clean it.

    Tether for Repel Line questions

    Not to de-rail the subject...but, what is the purpose of using a steel quick link on the rope versus using a loop tied in the rope .?

    AeroHunter Merlin - anyone not like it?

    Well, I was pleasantly surprised to get a USPS delivery today. I received my new Flex in the gray color. Quick unbox and out to a tree in my yard. I grabbed a tether and carabiner from my pack, hung it at about eye level. So this is the first saddle I have ever sit it, so no other baseline for...
