Title: Rope?
Post by: Plankton on February 25, 2015, 08:59:38 pm: Not to hang myself or any poachers!
I can't decide on what rope to buy for ladder and roof work, there are to many on internet with the key words 'climbing' etc but many aren't up to the job. Now without spending a fortune what and where can I buy something suitable.

Thanks in advance. :)

My brother is a climber. What his club doesn't know about rope ain't worth knowing.
People who climb tend to be very helpful in my experience.
You never know, you may even find a new hobby.
