Sorry youtube again, look at me like a child leaving the sweets shop

What did you get?

 

[flushcut]

A box, he got a box. Lol

Oh it’s a power ascender!

 

[Eric H-L]

How does it work?

 

[Eric H-L]

Looks like Skylotech makes a Milan rescue hoist similar to the DBI-Sala RollGliss that was McGivered into an ascender powered by a battery drill. Makes me think the partnership of Skylotech and Husqvarna is a good pedigree for the new ascender.

 

[Eric H-L]

Anyone remember the Treehouser who discovered the bargain RollGliss on eBay?

If you want Skylotec’s top shelf ascender, look no further than the ActSafe model

I bought a RollGlis on a whim, thinking of it as a backup option to my Wraptor. Sitting in my shop, collecting dust. Let me know if anyone is feeling crafty about converting it.

 

[Eric H-L]

Converting a RollGliss offer.
Thanks… but no, I need the exercise and we have mostly smaller trees here.

 

[Naturarbo]

The test I will upload when I test it.
The polyamid rope needs soaking for 24 hs and slow drying, a few days more till test can be done.

I work with the AWAH Z3 lifting and lowering device. I like it. Compact, convenient and reliable.

 

[SeanKroll]

@Maximalist how do you set your throw line/ weight in the tree? Do you throw by hand or use a BigShot or similar?

 

[Maximalist]

BigShot

 

[Naturarbo]

So finally I was able to put this to work, enjoy part 1, cause part 2 will be stuff that is not on the book
