My benchwork is high, but not THAT high...I sure like the thermos, though.

I wish the industry would come out with some new tools . I can find nothing left to buy. I seem to have it all and some in duplicate . I guess it doesn't matter since I can't drive anymore to do my shopping.

OH I don't miss that in the link. I worked for DuPont installing a roof that was 4 on 12 pitch, 16 ' off the ground, relatively flat and they made us wear
such a harness, couldn't believe it. You know that thing was more dangerous because when you step on the rope it would roll under your feet which to me made it a real safety hazard. Sometimes safety is really overdone.

The idea is that you are not supposed to step on the rope. It is good practice for bungee jumping

LOL yeah but DuPont forgot to supply us with those "sky" hooks, you know the ones that you clamp on in thin air. They made us tie it to facia on the opposite side's of the roof, hence the rope laid on the roof under your feet.
