Ev's Pulley System!

Here's a way to get trash out of the parks more easily. You use a rope with a pulley on it and use that to carry trash up to the road from the river. It's probably mostly only interesting to people who really want to clean up parks and protect Nature. But it's practical!

[@ZekeITS]

This is great!! I need to haul firewood up a slippery hill and your video is more helpful to me than a schematic. Thanks!!

[@evanandnature]

Thanks Zeke! Just be sure you have a nice strong rope which will stay pretty tight, if it's for a long-term install. Pulleys are awesome!

[@davidchaveriat4130]

Thanks for taking the time to show us how its done.

[@agridlife1495]

Fantastic! I am using this syestem to extract 5 gal. buckets of creek rock 20ft up a bank. You just saved me a lot of Time, Energy and MONEY~ Thank you

[@evanandnature]

Ah agridlife YAY! It's so amazing to share with others and help each other if we can! You are part of what is so good in this Universe. Thanks for the note.

[@123Goldhunter11]

I have to pour some cement under my craw space with buckets and you just game me some great back saving ideas. Thanks.

[@JoanKentBible]

Thank you. I wasn't looking for this great idea but it is certainly going to come in very useful as I have a very steep slope at the bottom of my garden where I keep gravel, compost, pots and such like. I hope you and your family are all well at this time. God bless.

[@evanandnature]

Thanks Joan! I appreciate anyone who can get something positive from a guy who actually FILMS himself in crocs and sweats- with the pockets OUT even! Here's some music for ya? Love to you- evansmalley.bandcamp.com/album/ev-n-11

[@sarahmunromaddonna6264]

This is great! I am trying to come up with something to transport trash and groceries up and down a steep hill for my elderly parents. Biggest problem is we don't have any trees handy in the area to use. Thanks for posting!

Cast callums

[@klompex100]

This may be late but can you install two wood bars with metal spear things at the end Thats How i did it. Then you have two ,,trees‘‘ just tie the, around that. Greetings and good luck From germany 🇩🇪 😊

[@JohnGarnerIII]

Thank you for this. I hope you've made it through this Pandemic BS and are still the charismatic man that teaches us all.

[@MissAllyson707]

Great demonstration! You duh best!! 👍

[@matthewtE]

Man, I could really use something like this for bringing cabin building supplies up my mountain property!

[@sanpansam7977]

Super! Thanks for the demo.

[@JamesKain]

Wish I saw this early this summer. I could ha been using this setup with my sluice box...

[@kuldipgill8191]

Thank you so much for this idea 💡

[@evanandnature]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for letting me know that even if your sweat pants pockets are out and you're wearing crocs- people are pretty cool!

[@laz0rama]

exactly what i was looking for, thank you!!!!

[@abdulmujeeb5426]

Thankyou thankyou very much

[@royjacobs6680]

Love this idea

[@cjjuddaustralianartist]

Great Idea, but only half the job. I want something to do the pulling for me as well. 😜

[@evanandnature]

Kids! They love it.

[@teresastillabower8361]

I am trying to work out how to pull my mobility scooter up a ramp into my car. This look perfect. And cheap.

[@evanandnature]

Just use heavy duty cables tightly strung and I bet it will be great!

[@moxee33]

Thank you!

[@ninamarie2312]

what do you recommend for pulling groceries?

[@evanandnature]

I like 5 gallon buckets, just get good strong rope for the main line with the pulley, should help a lot!

[@ninamarie2312]

what kind of rope do you recommend and to pull the groceries? what do you recommend that i do so it won’t hang down? i’m really trying to make this happen

[@evanandnature]

@@ninamarie2312 I found the best for me was a 1/2" hard nylon twisted rope. Really strong and stood up to lots of tension which is important to keep the line from sagging. The pulley rope needs to be strong and have good tension, but the pull rope you attach to the pulley can be less strong. Best of luck!

[@johnbaugh6978]

I will have around a 150" pull, maybe 150 lbs. or less. What do you pull it with? A winch?

[@evanandnature]

Always have just used a rope and human strength, best of luck!

[@shawnbeck3962]

Any thoughts for something similar to this for pulling deer up hill?

[@evanandnature]

Shawn, just be sure to use a very strong "Pulley rope", the pull-rope can be weaker but the main rope the pulley goes through has to be real strong. Hope it can help!

[@RoundheadRecords]

I messaged you on FBP - really like your stuff - just have a couple of questions.

[@trammelsmith5632]

How would you set this up if you had something heavy to move? Like a big rock to move from point A to point B.

[@Cid-mg3df]

Maybe a bascit

[@mkk94]

From where I can get this pulley

[@evanandnature]

any hardware store, best of luck!

[@drewwalker3980]

How does this work. You don't demonstrate how it works!

[@evanandnature]

Sorry Drew, I sure tried to! It's very simple in practice, just put a pulley on a rope, tie between two trees or anything solid, then clip a pull rope onto the pulley and then you can pull all kinds of things up steep embankments. Has worked great for years to pull tires and junk up steep areas in parks! Sorry I didn't show it better, thanks for asking.

[@RoundheadRecords]

Is there a way to ask you a question off public? Injured vet trying to figure out how to work on my hard which needs material. I can't lift 5 gal buckets so I have 2-5 - 3 gal buckets. My questions revolve around weight changes from a carry to a pull. Thanks for your post - large help - just need a push info wise for my project. Have gmail - just do not know how to contact if that is ok -

[@evanandnature]

Feel free to friend me on facebook, Evan Smalley and we'll communicate from that. Thanks!

[@evanandnature]

sorry that's Evan Smalley

[@RoundheadRecords]

@@evanandnature ok just saw - - - -

[@funeralgiggle3771]

What about a piñata?

[@john-bullenglish6343]

Instead of rolling it up the hill, I bet you’ll spend more time and effort using a pulley to drag that rim and tire on the ground as you demonstrated

[@evanandnature]

No, that's not true. We usually do this when we have 30 or more tires and other trash down a steep hill- there is NO comparison between doing 30 tires by pulley or by hand, not even close. Thanks though!

[@ridermak4111]

That’s NOT a carabiner. Be sure you never trust a life to any of that cheap hardware.

[@evanandnature]

Yeah this is only for TRASH, I'd never put more weight on anything than it can handle. On most cleanups I've been on, most trash bags and tires weigh less than the critical weight capacity of these tools. But yeah, don't go zip-lining on it!!!

[@vonmilash823]

Yes it is. There are different types, asshole

[@seriouscat5242]

CREEPY THAT YOU DIDNT ACTUALLY SHOW IT DOING ITS PURPOSE

[@jasonport7458]

hello

[@ThePete1891]

You know why. She was innocent. Nieve. Puré. But no longer. You took that. She'll never get it back. We trusted you Jay Jay. Barbara Ann just can't get over it. You were invited over so I could watch you with my wife. No, but that wasn't good enough. You had to take the youngin. I was supposed to get first taste of that. She is gone now. Across the smoky mountains staying with grandma Eldridge. You won't see her again you wicked wicked man. By the way, are you coming to dinner this Sunday? Sure would like to catch up.

[@ThePete1891]

Oh Shit! My bad Dude! I'm so so sorry! I thought you were a different Jason Port. Dude please disregard. Oh, and you up for supper this Sunday?

[@jasonport7458]

why are myou talking to me???

[@makrele2487]

Hahaha. 😂

[@chipper442]

How about just carry the shit out?

[@theSword-]

This makes absolutely no sense. All that buying stuff and assembly when I can roll a tire and carry a plastic bag.

[@evanandnature]

Well, I promise if you're rolling 50 filthy tires up a steep embankment (which is uneven, rocky, trashy, etc) it makes good sense! In my experience anyway. But if you're looking for exercise, yeah, I agree.
