    Oops i guess I attached it twice, but that's better than not at all. I've got to learn this new system.

Blake's hitch tightens around boot, stitched tight eyes attach to croll, and bungee (39 cents a foot!) doubled and fastened with a double fisherman's knot at carabiner. A few rubber band loops to...

    Sweet vid randy-how does the cooper hitch run w the hitch hiker? I've only ever used the prescribed hitch, but experimented a fair amount with different cords.

    Hey there treehousers, I've been lurking for a while here, and this is my first post. Lots of familiar faces here. I'm making a homegrown knee ascender. I would buy a haas, but I've already got a croll that I need a use for, and plenty of accessory cord, and some small ability to splice and...
