    I actually would feel much better about that failure, knowing it was not bad material, but rather bad installation of the swage. Poor quality cable you cannot fix...poor quality assembly, you can.

    You are not surprised by this revelation, I hope? :P :lol:

    That's plenty of radius. I think you are correct...less that top grade cable is likely the culprit.

    NOAA is much more localized than that, by a great deal. I set our location on the map and it covers about 1 square mile with my house in the center.

    That may well be so, but even a high-quality rope of too small dimension and/or load capacity could fairly easily be outmatched by that tree.

    That was a whole lotta tree. With that much weight, and perhaps some internal rot (?), maybe no reasonable hinge would have held up to the sudden shift of weight to the back cut. Obviously a much stouter pull rope was in order. For true, dumping that monster onto a road is an odd choice as well.

    What Did Ya'll Have For Dinner Tonight?

    It has always interested me how the "hot" peppers we get in our grocery, of the several varieties we use from time to time, can be so variable in the heat content...most especially the jalapenos. Some are merely sweetish warm, some will burn your lips off, most are somewhere in the middle :)...
