Very good demonstration. Bravo for mounting the camera to your head, freeing both hands and ensuring a logistical perspective for your audience. I’m amazed how many video ‘producers’ struggle to demonstrate an action with one hand, while fumbling with the camera in the other.

One of the reasons I do it is because when you are showing a technique it helps the watcher to view whatever is happening as if it's their own eyes. Especially with knots. Thanks for watching.

This video saved my ass on a construction site - I needed to get all my tools, tile saw, tile etc from a patio deck up to a second floor patio deck - maximum weight was 100# - I had to get creative on the support arm that the pully was attached to - it had to swing in order for me get my products to clear the handrail - could not have done it without this video - thx so much for your excellent presentations 👍

[@SapioiT]

Well explained, including how to do the knot easily. In the last third of the video, you could have simply swapped the two pulleys with the rope still attached, so the one with the fixed anchor (which you kept hooked above) is close to the object being lifted/moved (hooked below the rope), and move the moving anchor (which stops the weight from going away) would need to be moved so it's close to you (hooked above the rope). Thanks for the video! Edit: You did eventually do the swapping, right after I commented this. 😆 Edit2: No, you just moved the mobile anchor to the bottom. I think moving it would make it easier for people to imagine how it would be used practically.

[@ouchymytoe]

You were right; those "double prusik-minding pulley" blocks are prohibitively expensive for most folks. I guess the execution and concept are still mildly useful.

[@perryfire3006]

Anything that is rated for life safety is going to be expensive. They are also highly efficient pulleys too, meaning your effort isn't wasted on friction. The principles behind MA advantage don't change because one uses cheaper pulleys however. So consider a cheaper version if you aren't hoisting a person.

[@hyliedoobius5114]

Great video! What’s a good line to use, twisted poly or what? That looks like about 1/2”

[@perryfire3006]

That's actually a very detailed question. But, for brevity, use a rope that is rated for life safety if a person if ever going to be hoisted or "on rope". I like arborists climbing lines personally as they are strong enough, have great hand, and are generally cheaper than a rescue rated rope. Your question could warrant an entire video going over the details, ha. Cheers

Could one use this system to pull oneself up? Let's say someone is disabled in their legs, who isn't particularly strong but is heavy, and they can put a belt on and attach the tail and might lift themselves after having fallen down.

[@perryfire3006]

People have been using this type of system for raising themselves up for a very long time. So the short answer is yes, but for anyone with medical issues it is even more important that the system be safe and have the capability to be fully controlled for the person using it. For example, it would be very bad to raise yourself and then get stuck in a suspended state hanging from a harness, especially a modified one such as a belt. It will literally kill you if you are stuck long enough as the harness will restrict blood flow. But yeah, within safe reason, this system can easily raise a person. Cheers

[@itadvance]

Hardware store Rapid links are usually marked with something like "Not to be used for supporting human weight". Some are aluminum, others are galvanized, some come from China. The materials and manufacturing methods from one suppler to another or one batch to the next can vary widely and the actual strength is just a prediction. I think a figure 8 on a bight or even better, a double figure 8 on a bight would be a better option. Both are stronger and also don't bind. Another improvement would be to back up your knot by with a fisherman's knot or even an overhand. Appreciate the video.

[@perryfire3006]

Good point about always checking your equipment, including its origins. There are some really inexpensive pieces out there on Amazon and the like that really make me wonder. And yes, I could have bypassed the link altogether and just tied into the becket. Like many things in rope work, there are different ways of accomplishing the same task.

From 12:35, you get all of the terms backwards. Stationary versus the pulley that goes up and down are the reverse of what you point at. Same for load versus anchor (line). The function is correct, though.

Not really as I was describing using it in a 5:1 configuration. I should have disconnected the system for clarity. Check out this video for what I am referring: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Zp3LaJiwe65jhdE I really should tag this second video to the original. Thanks for reminding me.

[@JacobGodinez-m4s]

Wy not use a bowlin first so you can get it untied easy?? Or a double Bowlin?

[@perryfire3006]

You could, but the reason I use a poachers knot is because of the compactness. When you use other knots with a loop in them it elongates the entire system and sometimes it matters when raising in tight quarters. That four inches or so you sacrifice for another knot could make a tremendous difference. Thanks for watching and commenting!

@@perryfire3006 I see. Thanks for replying. It was a good video.

[@p34573]

So if at the end after switching the prusik position and turning this into a 5:1, you would have taken what was the bottom pulley and hung it from your top anchor point, would that have correctly demonstrated what you were describing for the characteristics of how a 5:1 should work?

[@perryfire3006]

Yes. In the 4:1 configuration, the last pulley sheave is basically acting as a change of direction while in the 5:1 configuration the last pulley is moving with the load. Thinking about this, I should make a separate video on just this topic as it would demonstrate how mechanical advantage is achieved. It would probably help in understanding why this is the case.

You'll need two double pulleys with beckets, two carabiners and a quick link, a rope and a set of prusik loops. All of these items vary in price and quality depending on what you buy. Petzl, CMC, PMI, SMC, are all great brands and there are many others too. Look at their catalogs or try an arborist supply house such as Wesspur or Sherrils. And 200 pounds is no problem at all.

[@perryfire3006]

@@LBoogie-uw3xb Just went over to Wesspur. The Petzl Spin L2 pulleys would work nicely. A Sampson Arborplex 1/2 inch, 12 strand rope at 150 feet is your cheapest option, and for a prusik pick the Flex 8mm sewn prusik. No need for two of them. You can choose whatever carabiners or link you want. All of this gear is rated for life safety meaning it is strong and durable and it's expensive. But if you are the one underneath a 200 pound heater unit you'll want to know it won't break. One last thing: I'll vouch for the gear but I can't vouch for your rigging methods in the field. So please be safe and practice smart rigging and learn how to properly sling objects as well as place strong anchors.

Harbor Freight has a $16 "Gambrel and Pulley Hoist", which includes the 2 double pulleys with hooks and a rope (and the gambrel). Rated for 440lb. and has a built-in stopper to fix the load - similar to how you raise window blinds. Instructions are wrong, so look up how to rig it. It's a decent piece of kit for those weights. Obviously not strong enough for climbing or vehicle recovery, but they also have manual winches and individual pulleys, as well as snatch blocks, for that.

Why didn’t you just flip the whole system top to bottom at the end to create the 5 to 1? I was anticipating that so hard I fell off the edge of my couch. 😅 Great demonstration. 🤜🤛 You can make it a 6 to 1 with a small pulley added to the first becket and tie off at the other becket. But you would probably have to go with a smaller diameter rope to accommodate the pulley in the middle. That’s okay because 6 tension lines would add up to more than the rating of the blocks.
