I hate phones so much. My anxiety level shoots up if I have to type more than a couple words. It's cool having that much computing power in my pocket, but anything that involves typing is a non fun chore.

Til I see the video, the only thing I can say is "It looks complicated". The main appeal to me of moving rope is the simplicity of the setup. Rope, a piece of hitchcord, a pulley, and I'm good to go. I may or may not use a foot ascender. I typically use it when I can hit a lowish tie in with a...

The Endurance is cool looking. I know of AtlanticBraids, but haven't used their rope. I think they have a good reputation. They just aren't one of the big dogs in North American ropes. If I saw something from them I really liked, I wouldn't have a problem buying from them.

Looks cool. I'm having problems with brainlock understanding how it's set and retrieved. I guess I'll have to wait for your video :^)

Yup. That's my intention with mine after my Vertex shield gets thoroughly trashed. I have that mesh also, which replaced the steel mesh it came with. I like the heavier coarser screen. The fine mesh lights up when sun hits it right, and makes it hard to see. edit: The fine mesh also plugs bad...

Do you use the Husky face mask with the muffs? That's my intention with mine eventually. I have the one made for the Vertex, but it's wearing out, and I'm not super fond of the new Vertex mounting system. It's kind of fiddly, and doesn't always properly lock in place. I have a Husky forestry...

I ordered a visor for it from TreeStuff for $46 shipped. Sticker price was $38, but I don't really need anything to get me to $100 free shipping. That's still cheaper than the new Vertex stuff, and I figured I should buy now while they're still available. Getting greedy and waiting for a better...

What do you think of the air circulation in the Protos? I was toying with the idea of a Kask, but a couple people here said they stink, and are hot. I can get around stink with cleaning, but hot's a huge nope. I like the Petzl cause it's suspension based(no foam), and has huge vent holes. It...

I used to go almost every week, especially when my daughter was little. I've gotten out of that. There really isn't much I need, and don't really need to be accumulating more stuff. My yearly average now is probably once a month. Twice a month if you include the tool consignment shop. I almost...

Yea, I really like my older two. The first one I bought right after the redesign, and it /just/ fits. If I don't put it on just right, the straps rub my ears. The second I got just cause I wanted green, and it fits much better. Dunno if it's variance in manufacturing, or they adjusted the...

I just got this from the thriftshop for $7. Brand new... I guess it's the old style cause it doesn't look like the two I already have. I'll have to check online and see if I can score some accessories cheap since it's now obsolete.

That's a good looking knife. Nice scales, and I like the way the steel looks.

Got a large scratch n dent portawrap from arbsession for $93 shipped(qualifies as a deal I think). I wanted one to keep in the truck, and I kinda wanted a large one. The one I have is a medium. I bought it cause it was specced for ⅝" rope, and I figured I didn't have any business rigging bigger...

An nk b&c for my 2511 and a PrisonBlues hickory shirt... I'm hoping for a performance boost from the b&c and the shirt is a replacement for my work shirt. Maybe... I could end up liking it too much to beatup at work. I rarely buy new clothes. Most of my stuff comes from the thriftshop, but I...

...salt off the straps, and remove oils from the sweatband which don't feel so good, and I suspect may contribute to zits. A little ERC oil on the *back* side of the sweatband might be nice, but I really like ERC. A little goes a long way...

No real way around that. I wash mine roughly quarterly, with the four times clustered tighter around the warm weather season. I use water, and Dr Bronner soap to wash it. Massage into the textiles, especially the sweat band. Rinse and air dry thoroughly. When you're finished wearing the helmet...

Speaking of which, I need to wash my helmet. Outside looks good enough, but the suspension could use a good cleaning. Maybe I'll do that today.

It would be a little fiddly, but you could hitch a ring above the unit for a cradle throw. Might even be able to put a ring on the unit itself, but that would be somewhat destructive.

I noticed that also. I cradle throw 90%+ of the time, and I wasn't excited seeing their solution, but it isn't something I've ever tried, so I reserved judgement. Glad to hear it worked well for you.
