Re: Neolithic Rope!
Sep 16, 2003, 17:46
Gordon, I'm confused, I thought we were thinking of doing it 2 ways, and both would need rope?
And not using an A frame seems an arbitrary stance for us to take. There's no evidence of pulleys, so we can't use those, but A frames and levers are accepted as likely, as they're so obviously apparent. Also, I've been playing around with Steves 100 ft tree system and it seems very efficient on my model.

Steve, if we do need any rope then yes, just a bit would be good to have, I'll talk to her. I don't think we should totally give up on the idea of buying some merely on the grounds of cost though. I think we have quite a product here and will find it easy to get some sponsorship- maybe even from Norway, as it would be such a prestigous thing for them.

When we've settled if we're using ropes, and in what context, could you let me know what strength would be needed so I can write to her?
