Let us pray.....
I also i think the Amsteel is smaller diameter rope than the Ropeman is rated for... Along with the what others already advised.Help a noob out. What am I looking at? I see the crazy knot on the ropeman. Dont see any tail coming out of the ropeman. Just trying to learn.
I got corrected on an idea I had, which i appreciated and still trying to research all the correct alternative methods. I understand I'll need a couple years or more thorough research on anything before its put into practice. Perfectly fine with my stock kestrel until I feel more confident to jump out of the nest. Obviously with forum approval. But just trying to use criticism/correction above as another learning point but dont know exactly what's going wrong.

Bout sums it up!Basically He's using a slippery cord which gets all its stength from the sheath in a device that may not grip and if it does tends to cut sheaths and puts a lot of stress on them in operation. And backing it up with a *** knot in a rope that doesn't hold knots.
Haha can we make this an official knot name? My brother is notorious for tying this one...*** knot
Where was this pic taken from?

Bro, I have a family member that when you step back and watch her life for the last 10 years, full on dumpster fire in slow motion. I tried with the friendly advice, which turned into a very loud argument, twice. Now I just sit back, help when I feel like it anonymously, and don't say a word.
This was the next picture. I refuse to dig a deeper hole with him as he clearly doesn’t care.
It’s like watching a train wreck in slow motion.

I agree, you did your part by trying to point out an unsafe setup. What someone does w/ that information isn’t your responsibility! I think back to how many times a friend of mine refused to wear a safety harness. Can’t make him.....Bro, I have a family member that when you step back and watch her life for the last 10 years, full on dumpster fire in slow motion.

Sometimes you can't get through to people, and as long as you clear your conscience, what happens after that is their deal.
