Default RE: Fix for a tree strap problem

This is what I just did....I was looking into getting the rope system that has the pursik knot but it is 40 bucks. I went into a sporting good store called Backwoods and they sold rapelling rope by the foot, which was just what i was looking for. I bought two ten foot sections of heavy rapelling rope and two smaller lenths for the pursik knot. This allowed me to make two setups for $24 bucks. It works extremely well and is exactly what they sell for 4o bucks. For my loop in the main line I used an alpine.....something knot. Ill pull up the site that I got the knot designs from nd post it up here for you. Then I took it and my harness to work and suspended my self from a ladder on our hanger wall to test out my knots.....they work great. you can buld 4 set ups for the price of one in a store. Ill try to snap a pic and put it up on here tomorrow for ya. I gotta finish an essay for an aviation history class and get my butt to bed.
