First newb question

[BigLurch_75]

Looking at the rock climbing harnesses, I do not see attachment loops for the lineman belt. Am I missing something? Or, do you sew lineman belt attachments to the harness? Before I spend the money on a RCH, I would like to know how to accomplish this.

There are a few RCH that have load bearing/rated gear loops. Those will work for a LB. What I did was run a piece of tubular webbing around the waist of the RCH. It works, but it's not ideal.

Someone will post a link to a RCH with load rated loops.

Towards the bottom of this post: http://saddlehunter.com/community/index.php?threads/noobie-advice-info.5590/ there is a video under "Good explanation of the rock climbing harness and lineman’s belt mod."

You have to add linesman's belt loops to most of the harnesses.

I think bowhunter15 explains an easy way to do it in this video:

That was quick. Thanks for the help.

I'm still looking. I'm a big fella, so I have to find one that fits my waist size. Black Diamond has a few that go to my size. This has also motivated me to get off my butt & drop some poundage! It will probably be a Black Diamond though. I am open for suggestions though. All this is new to me.

yeah, I'm looking too.
