Buddy. I am a current Boy Scout, Knots dont mean crap.

If you wanted to hoist up an 800 lb log, Your perfect timber hitch is worth nothing if you are using yarn.

Rope stretches, snaps, breaks, unwind, weakens.  Not a good idea.

were ex-scouts b/c we've already done everything.  it's also 3 trees with 900 lb test rope holding large support beams. so ha!  I didn't get pwned at all.  your just jealous that hippie butt can't do anything like that.  i'm trying to get pics once i get my camera working. tommorrow perhaps. patience little children.



Firstly, calling me a "hippie butt" for pointing out your flawed plan does not make your plan fly.

900 lb test rope also means crap if its not designed for the outdoors.  whats the material its made of?

And the irony in calling us "little children" is profound. . .

how is it a flawed plan when the tower works? why does everybody have to criticize someones accomplishments and ideas?

900lb is not designed for the outdoors? where are you from?

the rope is made out of stuff that makes tough rope.

for wat I have heard from you, HITMAN, I give you a congrats on your accomplishments for your tower. Rope would not have been my first choice either, but of course all I have around the house are screws and nails. When I was in scouts the rope lesson taught me nothing but of course I didn't have too much experience with rope. If the tower is steady and is holding up, more power to you. Can't wait to see the pics.

I hope the rope is of synthetic form... not made of natural fibers. back when I was like 8 a friend of mine Kenny, and I both made a small fort with fencing wood and a hot glue gun... didn't hold more than a week.

Oh?  Material doesnt matter?

If material didnt matter than all rope would be made of "wonderfiber" or something.  Certain materials have certain strengths and weaknesses.  Whats it made of?

I didnt say the rope wasnt meant for the outdoors.

And it is flawed because if you used the wrong rope there is a number of possible accidents that could happen.  You need to think about saftey first.

i never said it didn't matter and i don't care about materials, but they have to synthetic have a good weight capability...

once again, there are no flaws. we made sure there weren't. right now we have hand rails and are at this time working on walls and a top.  we even made a ladder using rope. it works and is safe, thats all that matters.

Because I can.

That tower WILL hold.  we made one out in my marsh 7 years ago using only lashing.  Its still up and very sturdy.  Use good rope, and it will be perfectly safe, provided you remember your lashings correctly

SORRY BUT I WON'T BE ABLE TO GIVE PICS UNTIL WE'RE DONE!

WE HAVE DECIDED TO ADD A SECOND FLOOR TO IT. A SNIPERS LEVEL WHICH WILL BE ADDED THE SAME WAY. SORRY FOR THE INCONVIENCE, BUT IT WILL BE WORTH SINCE I WILL HAVE EXTRA PIXS OF OUR LARGE BUNKERS AND FOXHOLES.

IT SEEMS DARUR AND THEM HAVE GIVEN UP SINCE WE HAD SOMEONE ELSE SAY IT WILL WORK.  ANYHOW, THANK YOU FOR THE POSTING AND PLEASE STAY TUNED UNTILL FUTURE INFORMATION AND PICTURES ARE RELEASED. TY.

No, I simpley found what I am saying is impossible to penetrate your head.  You seem incapable of understanding what I am saying.  Its rather like trying to explain Physics to a money.

it will hold. i made a fort on the ground it had walls and a roof.  Let me tell you why yours will hold, when i made mine we didn't use anything we used v sticks and constructed using every angle and placemnet for logs we could.  It held for 3 years without a problem.  Then One day the ceiling caved in.  I still think it was the neighbors who did that.
