Well who do you blame?

I give some fault to the business owners and their lack of organization that put a dummy behind the wheel.

With Rapp's Dam it seems a company hired a bunch of temp/new drivers for the Mother's Day rush and sent one of them out with a quota and a GPS and not much else.

With the bucket truck and the train bridge it is protocol for a business owner to get any dumb **** to over-extend his abilities.

I am not saying the drivers are completely vindicated BUT I know I won't take a driving job because there is no way I will be held accountable for ever last thing and that is how it is, it all comes down on the driver, just some random egg head for all we know. Its not even his truck, he is just an employee. In most cases an employee really can't be blamed. Ask Jeff.

It's funny you say that because it notice the rope rendering where the paint is wore off . And yea it's getting smoother I also have the unpainted aluminum one that's smooth as hell

 

[tree MDS]

I've had the nickel plated (or whatever its called) one for a decade and a half or so now. It does run smoother now that its worn in. Those were textured from the factory though. I don't see what the difference would be between a painted black steel one and an aluminum though? At least as far as rope running smoothness is concerned. Care to enlighten me as to how this works?

 

[tree MDS]

Cough, cough..

 

[tree MDS]

Lmao... or maybe the paint acts like a pmimatively designed drum brake as its wearing off?? Sounds reasonable enough to me.. just run down to Napa for another spray can if she's a loosing her grip!!

This was the first day I used it ? Wrong

timber hitch (thumbs up)

 

[jefflovstrom]

I found as the coating wore off, the smoother it ran.

Try setting it waist high, not sure what you dont like about it.

so many uses for a porty......yankovitch on a tree, send a bolen up and either attach it to an extended come a long on a tree or Dingo/Tactor....and wrap it up and couple of tie offs on the ears....quick easy tight tie off.

no comment needed but fireman/rescue squad was interviewed on talk show today and said he had been to oh about a hundred dog bite calls in the last 10 years and every one the owner said "hey, he/she never bit anyone before"...also he said EVERY one was a pit bull. Also he said in the last year 3 pit bull owners were killed by their own dogs. Pit mix in many cases? Yes, I am sure, but none the less...

I've found the painted ones tend to stick due to the heat of the friction softens the paint. The softened paint catches the rope as it runs.
