I generally won't. Like on my z rig pulleys, those stay in the rigging bag. The double sheeve like you showed, I bought one for ddrt redirect, used it a couple times, But then pretty much switched over to SRT save for descent on occassion. Now it serves occassional use as MA when I do cabling if...

I was lucky I had a long lz. Groundie was like OMG! when he showed up. Came down to help chip. Only the stem left to lower. Little chit I just cut and chucked. Took 24 with me up and left 24 hitched to my tail on the ground. Just enough rope so when I needed them. Butts were all going the same...

Or have a shit ton of slings. I've about took apart a tree with that principle and a 3/8 stable braid line. Mini porty in tree to tension the line and move it about the tree as needed. Eventually my groundie should up and we lowered the rest of it. But most of the tree was already on the ground...

I use the nylon loop runners from Baileys. They often color code for size. Orange, Red,yellow, purple. Makes life easier with a groundie or homeowner help. Size matters, easier to call out a color. Ask some one to show you how long 2' is between their hands and measure the results. Yeah. Then...

When hanging porty from tree on a dead eye, girth hitch. When pulling with a machine or continuous rope puller (come-a-long) then a carabiner or shackle. Sometimes i need to use a large loopie and that would require a crab or shackle. Clear as mud? Yes Ive used chafe guard. But it is a PITA to...

No. I will if I feel the pull is going to be more than a 50kn screw link steel crab will take. Never broke those crabs yet.

Stehanson made two for me. Or was it three. I forget. Anyway, shit simple to just heat some 1/2 round stock with oxy acetylene and bend it around the bollard it is going on to get the shape and size needed. Then weld to bollard. Not rocket science and round stock is not terribly expensive

Some pictures here in this thread from a while back... https://www.masterblasterhome.com/threads/ten-trees-ho-with-a-camera-and-the-crew.20313/

Yes. Pulling things up to yourself or all of 200 feet stashed in a bag on the back of your harness. In pine TDs, I'll often bag the line and deploy it once I hit my topping point, or if I need something. Less rope on the ground for the grounds man to worry about. Just hangs off my behind till I...

From what I have read, the rope runner was more versatile with different ropes than the Pro version . Rope runner is on my list of devises to buy. I like to preset my lines on multiple climbs ahead of my self. A RR would be more forgiving than an Akimbo when switching ropes. Don't get me wrong...

89-91 octane 10% ethanol mixed with Stihl Ultra at 40-45:1 And what Brian said.

No such animal in CA inless you cheat with aviation Low Lead or racing fuel. Or get the premix stuff. If you use a decent mix oil, it has stabilizer that helps with the ethanol issues. Sincr I only use the Stihl top grade mix, motors last longer and rarely a fuel issue. We run in temps below...

You richen the fuel with the carb or lean it. The oil is a lubricant for the engine. You will not "lean out" the engine fuel by adding 2 stroke oil.

40:1 is more oil to fuel than 50:1 making it richer in oil cooling and lubricating the saw better.
