    Good old fashion fun! No batteries, no electronics. The water hazard (AKA pond) will make for an awesome addition on a hot day. Can you use the spool that the cable came on to wind up the retrieval rope? Attach a carriage bolt with a PVC pipe handle to the spool and hand crank the seat back up?

      @@Guildbrookfarm On my setup as a kid, we had a full length retrieval rope but had the shock cord integrated in to it as well. That way you don't need the third tree. It was all at the top of the run too, nothing but an emergency stop block at the bottom. All attached to the trolley that way it's out of the way.

    I lived in North Carolina for six years and really I did not have a good time living there. But one of the really good times that I did have was my husband and I are panning for gems in the cricks in North Carolina. At the time we had our precious puppy Ada who lived to be almost 13 years old and she was a boxer. Actually she was bought at this family owned a pet store that has it been in business for like 40 years. It was right outside of Asheville I can’t remember the name of the town.

    Make sure to line your new pond with sodium bentonite. It's been around since the 1800's and was originally used by mining companies to water proof their tunnels. Today its used to line the ponds on golf courses all over the United States. If the pond is strategically located, it could also be used to help fight forest fires using a portable water pump.

    For the brake bungee, if you have another tree on each side of the zip line near the end, run a small length of cable between them overtop of the zip line cable and attach a pulley to a fixed point in the middle of it. Then run your bungee from the tree at the end of your zip line through the pulley and then double back to your brake block. This way almost all the slack can be out behind the stop block where you’re not going to hit it/get tangled in it. It’s what the professional commercial zip line operators have as a setup when I’ve seen them use the bungee brake system.

    Yep, hand tools and brute strength! But they might've had help from neighbours for some of the most brutal bits and in turn would've helped them to build their homes. Weren't they brave though back then? They certainly chose a lovely spot for their home. Pythagoras to the rescue lol. That looks like great fun, will you need to re-tension the line before you use it the first few times?
