Default Gallows mount

Hi all,

I have made some progress on this working off Gina's plan.

Gina (or anyone else who can assist); can you tell me please, what is the purpose of the captive bolt and the two eyelets on the pipe, shown on your plan? Do the eyelets just help to feed the cable through the centre of the pipe?

Excuse the ignorance. I am just trying to get my head around how it all works.

I have a couple of pulleys arranged so the mounts for these will be next.

Great thread for an odd piece of kit.

Thinking of getting one made as well, those drawings Gina will come in very handy.

On the other hand is there any floating around for sale?

The dual mount looks like some kind of insane Mad Max zip line attachment...
