Hope everyone is busy and making $$. heres a new Video loaded with felling cuts, climbing, rigging, and some music.
hope you like it took me a couple months to make been so busy. Working from sun up till sun down.
If any one is wondering i am using zip-line in vide. I used 5/8 rope as my zip-line because of the size of branches I wanted to take. Attached to the zip, a pulley which I attached to two tenex spider-legs to attach to my cut. Set pulley in pin oak by street and ran down to tree into porta-wrap. On my end rope it went from top of tree to pulley , down to G.R.C.S. After tying branch then tensioning zip I am ready to cut. When branch got down to front yard we lowered limb from porta-wrap in front, disconnected branch, then ran back to me from 1/2 inch rope which was also used as my speed control line for the limb on zip.
500' zip line was a different set-up. Zip line was tensioned once at start of job and never un-tensioned till job completion. used 7/8 bull rope attached dmm rigging hub attached prusick to 5/8 bull-rope that I ran through center. So after each branch/log went down groundie would pull enough slack depending on my progress in tree through prusik, pull zip (5/8 rope/dmm up to me), attach 5/8 rope coming out of dmm to log/limb, can also be used if u need to lift limb (progress capture rig) some branches I neede to raise or crane to zip-line. , So groundie can tension rope. but prusik will capture progress. So pretty much I made an adjustable zip- line. it ran smoother then one above, their was less drop and faster to set-up in- between cuts and had more functions and attachment pionts.
