Get ready, a lot of smoke and mirrors for this next illusion.....

First, let's flip it around; spin it 180 degrees on its vertical axis:

The we'll put both faces on the same page......

Tree Machine · 27th September 2007, 09:38 PM

Let's face those buggers with the gates looking right at each other,

Now we combine.....

Wait, that's not quite it......

Tree Machine · 27th September 2007, 09:47 PM

Here we go!

Now the idea is that the dual wiregate spring gate horn would be affixed to the ATC.

It is too late for me to attempt that digital surgery. You get the idea, though, that as the rope exits the device, you are able to drop in a soft lock. You could be hard-locked. Only the creation of the device, and the testing would tell.

Hard lock means you go hands-free, you are holding position on the rope.

Soft lock will allow you to micro-adjust by feeding rope into the device, in other words, you give the rope a light push up with your fingers to come down.

Hey, here's a swell idea, let's get competing companies to morph gear with each other,

"Petzl, Black Diamond. Black Diamond, Petzl.

We'd like to put a Freino together with an ATC Guide in the same bin and see if they mate."

Tree Machine · 29th September 2007, 04:49 AM

Erase

the center.....

Tree Machine · 29th September 2007, 04:54 AM

Pull them

together.

Not what we came here to invent, but this will get us a step closer.

We'll save this for later on. A logical name would be 'dual spring gate' or 'spring-gate hardlock' , 'wiregate friction cleats' 'dual spring horns', 'captive adjustable hardlock'.
