Hey Dave, do you by chance have any updated videos walking through the whole set up process? Displaying the ground tie off etc. Also, what size rope do you use & any recommendations brand of rope or where to purchase.
Thank you!! You wouldn't believe how many people do that ,they make the damn rops with the slide on the opposite end of the shock absorber now days lol
The next opportunity I get, I will make a better video. I would like to do a series on roof safety and have several videos showing different types of rope operations, anchors, systems, etc.. and show how to set them up. Keep checking in and hopefully we can get something put together that you can find more useful.
CentraFlo Pressure Cleaning & Roof Cleaning , man that would be most appreciated. We're on West Coast FL, and my ultimate goal is to spray roofs from the ground.
+CharlieWayne2012 I have taken both "rope operations" and "rope technician" which are 40 hrs each... we have considered offering and teaching a condensed course for those that want to learn. My best recommendation would be to join a local Florida Pressure Washers page I created on Facebook.. "FPW - Florida pressure Washers". Lots of great info. Until we figure out more with offering classes or more videos, join that FB group and subscribe to this channel for updates.
I do not believe that an OSHA inspector will be very happy with this setup. I will not recommend the use of a fall arrest system (lanyard with a shock absorber), because you might not have enough free fall distance (required fall clearance distance = length of the lanyard + deceleration distance + height of the suspended worker + safety factor).
Thank you for this. I am SPRAT L3 , IRATA L2 and this puts roof and gutter cleaning in perspective and possible with limited anchor points.
Respect!

I think i saw a shock absorber on your lanyard....if so it goes on the harness end of the set up. 🤔🤨😉🤗😎

What's the point of the Prussick when the Gibbs device does the same exact thing. Is it just to gain more working distance from the safety rope?
Sure would like more details on this, such as the tie off points, getting ur rope Tite, etc.

That Gibbs line is great when you can't anchor both sides of your line viz a Prussick is garbage on a slacked line
I think they should be mandatory on new homes but anchored to the frame and made out of galvanized
Thank you
how can do that on a laminate roof ? i new to roofin???
