riggerrob 598 #1 December 11, 2015 Riggers, please help me write Christmas carol. It is sung to the tune of "On the twelfth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me ..." 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 And a Pack Opening Band pulling tool." Each singer must repeat all the previous lines .... and is only allowed to add one new line before passing the challenge on to the next aspiring song-writer. Go guys .... and gals ...!

safetyjim 5 #7 December 12, 2015 I couldn't think of a particular "4" item, but for "5" I'd prefer either 5 sewing machines (2 dedicated straight stitch, 1 zigzag, 1 bartacker, 1 harness -- other persons might have an even greater number of machines on their wish list); or 5 8-foot tables (more convenient than 6 or 7 6-footers, for pilot rigs). If riggerrob receives responses all the way up to 12 (hint: 12 packing weights), he can make the final selections. 5 pounds of lead seals, maybe, but not 5 seals.

dpreguy 14 #8 December 13, 2015 Except no rigger has 12 packing weights anymore, unless he's a collector. (Although I do have two packing tables.) "Two packing tables" = works better phonetically Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

safetyjim 5 #15 December 14, 2015 "Except no rigger has 12 packing weights anymore, unless he's a collector." I use 12 packing weights when packing pilot rigs (I have 12, and use them all). I've watched a well-known east coast master rigger routinely use 17 or more! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
