Any pics of carls rappel set up?

I am not Carl but we use nearly identical setup. Here is a video of my setup with my one stick I did a bit ago when someone had asked. I no longer use the 6mm TRC on the stick for the cam cleat, I have gone to Amsteel on that applicatioin. I also use dynaglide 1.8mm for pulldown line now. I also hook that pull down line behind the scaffold knot if there are any limbs or crotches I may encounter when pullling down my rappel line.

@Squirrels is there a reason you went away from the 6mm TRC? I have same setup (rope and harken micro cam cleat).

Stretch in the rope partly is the reason. The Amsteel doensn't strecth, it's lighter, and more compact. I use 7/64" Amsteel with a full bury which creates a core in the otherwise hollow Amsteel. Finished diameter is 3/16" which is within spec in terms of diameter for my cam cleat.
 
@Squirrels Thanks for the video. I got to see you demo your system on Saturday, so it definitely all makes sense now. The only thing I didn't catch is how do you tie an auto-block with the Beal jammy. Do you have a video or a link to a video so I can practice.

Thanks again

Just Google autoblock. I will try and get a video in the next couple days for you.

Just made 5lbs last night. Will get the ingredients and send your way. Basically, I use Sea Salt, Black Pepper, Thyme, Rosemary, Sage, Red Pepper Flakes, Cayenne Pepper and just a pinch of brown Sugar. I also do patties not links...

Decided to make chorizo from the meateater cookbook. It's marinating in the fridge right now. Will grind up caseless sausage tomorrow.

Well I am late to the “live” thread but here are some pics I took. Since I’m apparently better at taking cell phone pics than killing pigs. Lol

Almost got the truck stuck but made it out OK, even with my 4WD not working.

Had a great time as usual. Looking forward to next year.
