It includes real life examples of ways pulleys work, how to create various configurations to gain pulley advantage, how to figure out "What the Mechanical Pulley advantage different systems create," Compound, Complex, and Simple pulley systems, effects of mechanical rope grabs on rope, and many more things related to pulleys and the various connectors, ropes, and other gear. This book begins with some advanced basics, and then addresses many skills and situations used by people, rescue professionals, and skilled work professionals interested in pulleys, ropes, and various systems.

How a pulley system may load a component in such a way that it becomes a disadvantage, and may cause an anchor or other component to fail. Within these pages I explain safety, situational awareness, on various ways to rig and use pulley systems, why they work, and how to gain the "Maximum efficiency and simplicity, with a minimum amount of effort and equipment, while maintaining a low risk exposure (Safety Picture). I have included almost 100 pictures and diagrams to help communicate these principles and concepts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For fans of The 7 1⁄2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle and David Mitchell, a genre bending, time twisting alternative history that asks whether it's worth changing the past to save the future, even if it costs you everyone you've ever loved. Joe Tournier has a bad case of amnesia. His first memory is of stepping off a train in the nineteenth-century French colony of England. The only clue Joe has about his identity is a century-old postcard of a Scottish lighthouse that arrives in London the same month he does. Written in illegal English-instead of French-the postcard is signed only with the letter “M,” but Joe is certain whoever wrote it knows him far better than he currently knows himself, and he's determined to find the writer. The search for M, though, will drive Joe from French-ruled London to rebel-owned Scotland and finally onto the battle ships of a lost empire's Royal Navy. Swept out to sea with a hardened British sea captain named Kite, who might know more about Joe's past than he's willing to let on, Joe will remake history, and himself. From bestselling author Natasha Pulley, The Kingdoms is an epic, romantic, wildly original novel that bends genre as easily as it twists time.
