Re: [AFMUG] Pull line

We tried this method and it sucks. The rope and bag work the best. We put rope we drop through the block and then start pulling it to the ground. The weight of the rope helps with the pull a little. On Wed, Nov 18, 2015 at 12:49 PM, That One Guy /sarcasm < thatoneguyst...@gmail.com> wrote: > we

Re: [AFMUG] Pull line

try mule tape. fairly cheap & light. we've put a bunch on a extension cord reel. you will need a small weight so when you drop the tape, it doesn't blow in the wind too much. roland > On some towers, water towers and buildings it's a real pain to bring the rope up. I'm wondering if there's some

Re: [AFMUG] Pull line

+1. Mule tape used to be pretty expensive. But these days you can get a reel of 500' or even longer very cheaply. And even the "light" versions of it can pull ~~ 2500 lbs. bp On 11/17/2015 7:39 PM, Roland Houin wrote: try mule tape. fairly cheap & light. we've

How about this? The last time I read the label I think it said it had a 250 pound test. Josh Luthman wrote: On some towers, water towers and buildings it's a real pain to bring the rope up. I'm wondering if there's some sort of really light rope that would enable us to bring the whole

[AFMUG] Pull line

On some towers, water towers and buildings it's a real pain to bring the rope up. I'm wondering if there's some sort of really light rope that would enable us to bring the whole thing up, drop it, and then pull up a real load rope. My main concern would be weight and size of 200+ feet of even

Re: [AFMUG] Pull line

We do this all the time. We have cheap-o 200' of white 3/8" from Home Depot or something like that. NOT nylon sheath, that shit sucks. Fits in a regular size climbers canvas bucket. Climber throws it over/down, hook up the block keeping both ends of the load rope on the ground, he pulls it up.
