Love the videos! Keep ‘em coming 👏 I’ve been doing a lot more rigging so always learning the safest ways to do it right the first time. When you get a chance let me know what rigging straps are you using?
Hey Jude, I'm really interested in more info on your ratchet straps with the shackles on the ends. That would be a very helpful tool for me to have in my kit!
The straps was a game changer for me. 20 years ago I would muscle up the speaker into position, but as I get older, and smarter, the straps offer so much help. I will be doing a video on the straps in a little bit. Stay tuned and thank you for watching!
Great questions. 1) The church was concerned about the 1/8” aircraft cable looking too bulky and the 3/32” cable gave us a total WLL of 540 LBS across the 3 hangingpoints. 2) Yes, normally I’d be tied off but we flew to the job and I thought they would have the proper PPE. Allowances can be made to work in a lift with high safety rails and not be tied off. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for sharing. Learning a lot. a great teacher
Excellent just what I needed.

I sometimes tack a weld on the turned eye bolt to keep them from opening up That's a Pro Tip!
That would make it a welded eye. Good pro tip! Thank you for watching!
Very helpful! Thanks Jude!

Why would they specify a smaller cable? Doesn't make sense considering the installation location.
Um, do you normally strap yourself to the lift?
I thought that was interesting too. Curious what their reason was.

@@audiobuff If aesthetics were a concern, could the bolts have been painted white and white heat shrink slipped over the cables?

Well, I didn’t see you dance one time let alone four tim…oh wait. CRIMP not crump! Sorry. Sometimes I think I’ve been desensitized to vowel language.😏
You should hear my English. It can be a bit rough. Thank you for watching!
