    Thanks Roothy I've been searching for videos of otis and this one in particular. I wish I'd had the foresight to keep the hundreds of DVDS that came with the magazine.

    Reeving across the rails is a recipe to fold your frame. The sling tension across that center point will be 4x line pull don't do that

      Note the steam pipe winch mount between the frame rails to prevent exactly that - good pick up!!

    Strahan is the best place in the world to have half a cray in front of the little cafe. When I was about 10 you could go into a small cafe anywhere in a coastal town like Bicheno, Stanley, Strahan, etc, and eat cray on a blue collar wage. How times change in 60 years, haha.
