Some May forget at some point in time they, We all did not know Terms, {What the H#)) do we call it} things are named different in different parts of the World. I would like to see an Dictionary of Terms for Tree tools and Such from all over. We don't call anything the same yet, ISA Terms, TCIA Terms & and Real World Terms. That ( Flip Line) was a Chicken Strap when I started, My Foreman Owen Widmer Arborist for Arlington Heights IL. had one but no one else on the Crew. Now I see people with Home Made ones , Tie or Brade you own. just look at the Blakes hitch, He did not Invent it He just put a name to it. Look into an old TCIA article called Son of a Hitch.
I think it would be good Humor to what we all call different things we all use in the same way or for the same things example what is a {Flying Block} I use it all the time. If someone wants to learn some terms or to learn how isn't that why we are here. We all Had to do it and why not have it in one place. If it don't happen OM me and I will do my best, may not be the same name as someone else in this world but I will do my best to help.
Please do not Think I am any kind of a Know It all, I just see how many thing are called by ODD names from my Trainees that come to my class at Job Corps
