That sounds like fun

I think your gonna need lots of rope!

Well, im not a physicist but I dont think it matters how far away the tie in points are as long as they are strong enough to withstand the side loading.
All your really adding to the system is rope.

Also, id be cautios when tensioning the system with a drum

Any clues to the location of this tree? A 37m red gum would be quite a sight!
