  • A demonstration on the rigging technique of limb balancing using a simple but extremely effective piece of equipment known as a 'Spider leg' or limb balancer. It makes it very easy to take off large limbs while preventing a huge swing which may hit buildings or objects.

    I would like to tell you that this video is the best video that I have seen explaining the use of the spider leg set up. Thank You for posting and God Bless !!!!

    Nice video, I love using spider legs, you can also use the system you show to lower two separate branches at the same time or add a second leg to create a 3D system.

    Outstanding, I am not a climber, However I am a rigger, with line and knots. Painter/contractor, at an old church, just keeping me and my crew safe through lines and proper rigging, always ready to study. As always, thanks’ for taking the time to make this video! And I support this site. ~M~

    This is excellent. Much more simple than some balanced rigging devices. I think I'll attach the line to the butt and then my spider line from the tip to the line with a simple blakes hitch.

  • @recycledsole
    @recycledsole Před 11 lety

    thanks Dan. im wondering what you do in a situation like this where the target is same but the branches are more vertical and the anchor point is roughly the same height as the limb being removed? thanks again for all the great videos

  • @jlstree
    @jlstree Před 9 lety

    Great video and thanks for sharing. Quick question, how much tension do you put on the line & spider leg before cutting. Do you have a rigging device to tighten it up before making the cut? You mentioned the ground guys lowering the poplar limbs with the portawrap so I'm guessing you don't have a lot of tension on it. Just asking because when I tried a limb with this technique it didn't work well at all.

  • @klausknudsen9646

    nice and easy feature to apply to youre standard rigning line! have a question thou,, using this method you need youre rigning anchor to be in another tree or make sure it has enough angle (sorry for my english!) to force it away, if youre anchor are too close the force from the but end will go towards you??? any tips or tricks or further explenation to stay safe up there!

    One of the best vids yet. I've seen the Tenex used alot for slings as it is easy to splice - but wondered if you have ever used it as a rigging rope or is it best to stick to more expensive double braids? Keep up the good work

    So, in theory, to minimize on the amount of kit being used… The same goal could be achieved with just a straight piece of rope, yeah? Let’s say 1/2” rigging line, using a 1/2” spider leg, attached with a Blake’s hitch and stopper knot, then both points attached to the limb with running bowlines?
