    Contract Climbing Starting up help

    I am curious if there are any contract climbers on here that may have some wisdom they could spare as I am just starting out in the contract realm of tree care. Big questions would be reasonable day rates, and if anyone has had any luck with traveling for work.

    Should rigging ropes be spliced differently than climbing ropes, if they're both 1/2" class-1 DB's?

    Or, for 3/4" rigging ropes? I'd learned splicing DB class1's with Blue Moon (11.7mm climb line), but since then have done a lot more ropes including 1/2, 5/8 and 3/4 polydyne (bull ropes and, for 3/4, for anchor-slings) and I simply copied the same 'ole "Samson class-1 DB splice"...
