    Hook it up to the PWIII to hoist or pretension lines! It'll be way faster than what we do now!

    Design a mini pulley setup for cabling....

    I swung by west marine to scope things out. First off- this thing is awesome... But that's besides the point. I ended up snagging one of these- I have a small double-sheave pulley at home that might match nicely with this. The cleat on this guy should allow for no-fuss tension holding...

    Not a bad idea. I'll look at a few systems. Though I'll tell you that I'd rather pay a little more for something to get it from a reputable manufacturer known for making things that can handle the elements. I'm sure that amazon system works, but was designed knowing it would be used just a...

    Not for nothing, but this block is only a few dollars more that 2 of the small x rings and would offer WAY more MA than a x-ring system would. Here's the link: http://www.harken.com/productdetail.aspx?id=39799&taxid=415 It's for 5/16" line (which is the size I want), weighs less than an...

    Design a mini pulley setup for cabling....

    Those small x rings still accommodate 1/2 line/ which means they are bigger than I want/need. But 4 of them would only be $60 and could be strung in line to put together a neat little system. I'm gonna look more closely at the premade pulley systems that were built for this, but the x-ring...

    Body weight is ideal- but I have to be ready for those times when the tie in points are not in our favor. Just to clarify- you use these... ...as a temporary grip on the cable while you install the permanent hardware? I'd need to carry a few to accommodate the 3 sizes of cable we install-...
