[QUOTE="Groundman One, post: 5419225, member: 27389"] Been toying with the idea of buying some good pulleys from Sherrill, some rigging tails, and making my own mechanical advantage setup. My climbers says there's no point since we have a come along that seems to do the job and is less expensive and has more pull. We've used the come-along to tension the porta-wrap line and to pull trees. $50+ for a come-along or $200+ for a rope mechanical advantage setup. What, if any, are the advantages of the rope system?
