Port A Wrap Install (Part 1)

Here in this video, Abdon shows us how to install a Buckingham Port-a-Wrap on the tree prior to a rigging scenario.

Since the pull will be upward, the initial “wrap” on the porty should be around the top and under. Then add your wraps/tucks. The way you have it tied is how it should be in the tree for your block/pulley since the force will be pulling down against the timber hitch.

Ahhh.. Good point !

[@GreenPowerFarm]

i learned something !...thank you!

[@branchmanager1100]

Abdon- FALWLESS instruction, brother ! Even I understood it.🤣 👍

[@ROGERWALDMAN]

NICE VIDEO !

[@brianhetrick1301]

This is good for the tree. Simple.

Not the newest video but I have a question. Let's say you didn't have some sort of a sling whether it be a dead eye or loopy or woopie, what would be acceptable if you just had a piece of rope? Knots, setup, ect

[@angussmith262]

Cow hitch if your deadeye sling is long enough. Faster to tie. Otherwise timber hitch works just fine aswell.

[@daviddutch2258]

The upward pull would not be good for a cowhitch even with a better half hitch added... Cow hitch for safebloc and pullys downward and side ways pull, timber hitch for upward pull I'd say.

[@raytyre750]

I like the timber hitch too. With one time instruction, any groundie can tie it and it holds every time.

[@daveyjoseph6058]

never even seen a port a wrap before this video, and i don't even work in this industry. but i do like ropes, so i understand the recommendation. thank you for the knowledge 😂

In the future for more detailed knots or other important tips etc. please use a camera of quality ( I assume a cell phone was used - poor quality ). Thanks.

[@BAKERHUSKIE]

Poor quality? You're joking right?

[@nolan_shaga]

Couldn’t you just use a ratchet strap?
