Good detail coverage. I use a 3/4 ton truck, but with a movable winch (+ extra 5/8" line beyond the 90' synthetic winch line) so I can mount it on the front or rear hitch. It's not a perfect solution, but with snatch blocks it works ok for a one-man operation without too frequent a level of cab gymnastics. I've not tried using the truck alone and hopping in and out, moving it, etc. I was looking forward to seeing your product links, but apparently you don't post those?

I love mine but tne problem I keep running into is the pawl that guides the free end back out of the capstain continuously eats the rope. Once under load, nearly every rachet will cause it to jam up one of the strands, nearly locking the whole mechanism. Using my off hand to pull the tail down and out of the winch is the only way I can get it to function reliably. Just wondering if youve ever run into similar?

@cuttingincascadia5412
@cuttingincascadia5412 7 ай бұрын
When necessary yes I do, all it takes is another sling around the redirect tree and a pully you don't mind abusing a bit. Most of the time however, I am able to find an anchor tree far enough away it isn't an issue.

I see the West Coast Saw exhaust port on your 200T, did you know there is supposed to be a hole drilled in it? Right where the spark screen goes. I just saw it on their website
@cuttingincascadia5412
@cuttingincascadia5412 7 ай бұрын
Yep, I took the muffler out of the saw and drilled it. The new hole is right where the new pipe itself is, so it directs the exhaust past the plastic case.

What carabiner do you recommend to replace the hook on the puller ? The weight break rating ?
@cuttingincascadia5412
@cuttingincascadia5412 Жыл бұрын
Changing the OEM hook on the rope puller does admittedly remove one of their intentional failure points which is a safety feature. I took the original hook off for easier attachment to an adjustable sling, and because I understand the system enough I feel comfortable modifying it while knowing where the limits are. If you don't have the same understanding, keep it original. That said, almost any carbineer will work and be well over the original parts strength, but again the reason for changing it isn't to increase strength or power because it doesn't do that, it is only to make connection to different slings easier.

I've used the metal cable come alongs forever. I hate them but they can unstuck a 4x4 or pull together a double wide home. I wonder if this rope puller can do the same job? It looks easier to deal with and probably lighter weight.

That hemlock was totally hollow and cracked, which can cause weird tension/compression. I do bore-cut often on heavy leaners, alders in particular, but in this case it would have actually put me at risk for pinching the saw inside the trunk.

First of all, let me tell you, that you're a man after my own heart....my colleagues know me for always collecting and saving little random unique pieces of tree!🤣🤣😔 I decorate my house with them. I also want to really encourage you to try the Wyeth-Scott 6-ton come-along, with the AmSteel (Dyneema) line. I absolutely swear by it. Heavy-duty cast iron construction, and extreme pulling capacity. I employ it as follows: Anchor point (tree, etc.) -> sling -> come-along (with almost all the line pulled out, because otherwise, the Dyneema will DIVE DEEPLY into itself on the spool!!!) -> sling#2/Porta-Wrap Now, all you need to do is to set the pull line in the Porta-Wrap and pull out as much slack as you can by hand, lock it off, and you're good to start cranking the come-along. I've done hundreds of trees this way, and it works great. It would be $350-$380 well spent!(not sure what they're going for right now) [edit: 4:18 aaaand, you pull one out from under the work bench! 🤣🤣🤣👍👍]
