> You can, but then you are carrying 60+ feet of rope with knots in it. Lol also not easy

A climbing rope weighs 70 grams/meter. A 30 meter / 98 foot rope would weigh 2100 grams, or 4.6 pounds. Wow, so difficult. If only I did some physical work, maybe I could lift such a heavy weight.

There are probably at least 100 similar listings.

How many sets of flat, kingsize bedsheets does this guide think I have readily accessible in the event I need to escape a burning building?

260 feet of climbing rope is less than $90, and it seems a lot easier than scrambling for sheets and tying them together.

​

I just ordered that for the same magnet you bought. Can't speak from experience yet but the strength is just under double the max pull and it's specifically for magnet fishing. It has good ratings too.

​

Your boyfriend is right, it's another crazy hobby... but I promise once he sees what you start pulling from the waters he's going to want his own magnet!

Get on it!!

You can check Amazon.com or Brute magnetics if you're in the USA there's a ton of selection (I'd go with brute if you can!)

Otherwise, in Canada here's what I got:

Magnet: https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07F7JKK83/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Cord: https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07HML8T9D/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1



Another great cord (longer): https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07RGQ51QD/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1



That's all you need. The rest is optional. 1 magnet and 1 cord. But, I'd go with some gloves at least.

The double sided ones say 800lbs for example, but that's a combined strength (400 on each side). Where as the ones with the hook on top that pull on one side only, they pull the weight it says.

Avoid thin rope, and make sure your cord can pull more (higher breaking strength) than the magnet can pull. I'd avoid premade kits like these: https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07QPLZC8X/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I bought it and the magnet is ok, but everything else is garbage. Go with a brute premade kit if you can. You also NEED loctite (red) to threadlock the thing from coming out of the magnet.

Edit: also here's my channel in case you wanna see it in action! https://youtu.be/6wTMJQiUjYo

In the future if I move in a high story apartment I will buy one of this and a pair of riding gloves.

Even if I lost grip and fell to my death, I would be out with a splash.

u/edenrestored · 2 pointsr/magnetfishing

Yeah, I'd check out paracord 750 - The next step up from what you have, which is 5 mm in size. Although, only being 1 mm more, might not make a huge difference.


A lot of people use 1/4 inch (called para-max) which is like 6.4mm. You'd probably be ok with something like this - 1000lb tensile strength. Although that is below 1300, I don't understand what could be stronger than this, I've yet to see any higher than this, so maybe what I said about the rope being stronger is wrong. There's people out there with 3500 magnets, so idk wha they use besides steel cables haha: https://www.amazon.ca/Paracord-Planets-Tensile-Strength-Midnight/dp/B01GK7KW9A/ref=sr_1_2?crid=30JHU7OV8I4SH&keywords=1%2F4+inch+paracord&qid=1564660963&s=gateway&sprefix=1%2F4+inch+para%2Caps%2C154&sr=8-2

Here's what I got - It's still only 550 lb breaking strength but its 8 mm thick! Should make pulling a breeze! This is from Canada, so maybe search for something similar on the .com https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07HML8T9D/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

This helped me a lot, it's a size comparison chart showing thickness up to 1/4: https://www.paracordplanet.com/cord-comparison-chart/

u/Chagrinnish · 2 pointsr/whatisthisthing

A tree climber will climb the rope and not the tree (unless you don't mind damaging the tree and you use spikes). And to get the rope into the tree you start off with a throw bag on a string. That's not an easy task getting the bag right where you want it. Also, if they are respecting the tree's health they will have hung what is known as a "friction saver" in the tree so the rope itself is not sliding on the branch when they climb.

TLDR it takes a long time to get those ropes set up so it's not unusual to leave them there temporarily.

> lost 3.4k

> should I kill myself WSB?

If you're asking this after losing only 3.4k, you probably should at least try. But since it seems like you can't get anything straight the first time around, I found this for you so you can practice. They even come in some really happy, fun colors :)

Fail better next time, kid.

u/Volatile__Agent · 2 pointsr/bodyweightfitness

I bought one from Amazon. They have them up to 50ft long if that's what you're looking for. Mine is 15ft long and I hung it from my 12ft. garage ceiling and it's awesome.

Step up.

u/Aquamoo · 1 pointr/climbing

I was wondering if anyone was familiar with the route 44 brand of rope, for a 600 foot rope I haven’t seen anything nearly this cheap. Here is the Amazon link for the rope in question. I would only be using it for descending while canyoneering, and not for climbing (so it should always be static). Thank you in advance for the help!
