now I get it

I ordered one of those new Vertex's last week, and the DMM Pinto Rig and spacer to splice onto a 3/8" loopie for a 1,000lb WLL lightweight sling to keep on my saddle. I've used a biner and pulley in the past but it's just too darn bulky yet so darned handy. The Pinto should be slick.

That's my big spend of the month.

Go pro h/d cam with vid screen just added to the stable of stuff.

 

[arborworks1]

Ordered a back up camera for the chip truck.

 

[SkwerI]

Sounds like something I could find useful, Scott. Which one did you get? Got a link?

 

[arborworks1]

Rearviewsafety.com. They have a few systems with multiple cameras that would work well for you.

Ordered a back up camera for the chip truck.

We put them on all of our trucks this spring and all of our crews love them.

Been running one I got off ebay a couple years back, I love it. I got the biggest screen I could find figuring that would be easiest to see. A spot of white paint on the pintle rings makes it easier to spot so you can center up quicker. The infra red is nice too

 

[arborworks1]

We put one on the isuzu this spring. Just getting back around to getting rigged up on the other trucks now. A 7 inch screen is great.

 

[Burnham]

What keeps the camera from leaving by five finger discount?

 

[Paul B]

works better than having one of the guys stand behind the truck giving nonsensical hand gestures?

 

[brendonv]

I'm not one to hang gear off my saddle but this loopie with the CMI pulley is super handy, with a high WLL. I was tired of the bulkiness, and discovered the new DMM Pinto Rig, so I sprung for it. It seems much more compact, as I was able to loose the jingle and weight of the carabiner. It still has a high WLL combined with the 3/8" tenex loopie. (1,000 lbs)

It's a great addition to my empty saddle.

I bought a Vertex 2 also, very comfy BTW.

 

[NickfromWI]

love it. Good combination of hardware and software!


...except you cant clip the rope on at midpoint...you have to run it through. I could get used to that, though.

 

[brendonv]

That's true Nick, although I'll treat it like a block, and those never come off the sling to slide the rope though.

 

[woodworkingboy]

Brendon, what exactly do you attach to that item?

 

[brendonv]

A lowering rope.

 

[woodworkingboy]

Ok thanks, I thought it had something to do with carrying tools.

 

[brendonv]

Na, just a sleek false crotch for lowering limbs/wood.

I was just saying I'm not big on hanging things off my saddle when climbing, but this is small enough after daisy chained it's not in the way, and it's pretty strong.

 

[woodworkingboy]

Nice.

 

[flushcut]

I finally got my boots today. They look like works of art, I now know why they cost so much. I can't wait to use them next week.

 

[brendonv]

Had a baileys order today.

Mingo firewood marker, two replacement chain breaker tips, a dozen files, and three hard head wedges.

 

[sotc]

Mingo

 

[FJR]

I was looking at baileys today at that Silvey grinder, it is calling me and I don't know if I can fight it!
