Help Needed - Climbing Belt
 
Does anyone have a climbing belt they would loan me for a few days? I need to
make a trip up the tower, and can't find mine! And being retired, I'd rather
not make another purchase. I've tried the local rental companies, but no one
has one.

I'm located near Granbury, Texas, but could certainly pay postage, etc.

For what it's worth, I did CPR on a fellow whose climbing belt failed while
he was installing a TV antenna on a topped tree. It wasn't pleasant, the
crunching of the bone fragments as I did the chest compressions.

Use good gear.
Be certain that it's rigged right.
Don't trust it.

Amen!
If you are going to climb, buy new from a reputable company, make sure
that it fits, and do not loan it to anyone. Even the old Scot does not
think of economizing when it comes to climbing harnesses. 73 Mac
