Yeah. someone needs to make a video about how to locate that thing so it won't get hung up in the blocks or anything else.
I watched a video of a this little derrickhand on youtube-each time he latched a stand his Sala line damn near wrapped around a elevator horn. I noticed in his video he asked others to "critic" his performance- so I sent mine...hehe...he wrote me back several times cussing me-a real worm hand. Winston Noel I think his name was. (If you ever see him give him a slap across the face with a doped up glove for me)
