ahh. ok. I see them. Used for hunting and hanging animals. In looking at that, I found a ratching version made by TieBoss. 3oolbs and has 15' of rope. $22. It has an S hook on one end I'd replace with a carabiner. A few of those and I think i'd be in business. Thx for the info. You put me on the right track. Tom
