This is how simple pulley systems work - Rope Access Rigging

Pulley Systems! Always a good topic where we tend to get lost in a lot of complicated riggings on paper where try to calculate complex mechanical advantages. In practice we rarely create these elaborate schemes. So to get this 3 part series started, as usual, we will begin at the most basic setups... The Simple Pulley System.

In this video I also announce the new collaboration between Vrigger and myself. I have used Vrigger since 2015. Created many presentations, WMS and teaching materials with it and now I am using the images in the video to get clear images for you. Vrigger is a product I support. I approached them to see if there was anything we could do to get you a discount on the product and we could and did. Super cool!!! And yes, it is an affiliate type deal. If you use my code TRAC10 to get that discount, I get a little kickback as well and you support the channel. Everybody happy😃👍🏻
