    Rope Wrench & Other Such Devices

I was dehydrated got a real bad cramp in the back of my leg while on my hooks standing on the snag. I'll be home before long & I'm hoping to gain a better idea of what works well. Been...

    Aborwear Tech Pants

    I talked with them. The gal who answered the phone denied hearing of any issues with the newer ones. I removed an Osage Tree the first I wore the newer model. They stained from the sap. I have soaked them in bleach & detergent for 3 days, washed to many times to count & the stain remains. I was...

    Aborwear Tech Pants

    Anyone other than myself notice the Tech pants holding stains from work or not washing out as well as the originals? One of the best things I liked about the original ones was how clean they came out of the wash. Regardless of how grungy from work they were.

    Law enforcement has every legal right to ask if you are carrying with legit reason. As far as I know this is true in most states that allow concealed carry. Personally out in public I see no reason for open carry. Out in public if my gun is out some one is doing something very wrong. Most have...

    RopeTek Integrated Communication System

    Is this what you all are talking about? How the heck does it work with a hard hat? Some body clew me in because the dealio I had ended up ripped from my helmet & tossed into the street. But if this or some system you all are talking about works I'm interested.

    Yale Dynasorb vs. Samson Stable Braid

    Been using Stable Braid probably since it first came out. I'm very familiar with it. I know what I can get away with when things are close when using it. But, I've got a contract on 9 good size, cracker dead elms. 2 local established companies refused to give bids, with bucket truck access being...

    Using Two Climb Lines

    Why not a Petzl PAW or some such. It's what I use, run snaps & biners from both lines to it. 2 bridges seems to over clutter & complicate things.
