As for the rope, the Army/Navy store by me has the rope that I think is climbing rope. When I was in there the other day I saw it (various sizes), I briefly looked at it, but was on another mission so didn't really study it
I will try to run in there this week and get prices on it. Maybe a couple of us could split the price, and make a Saturday beer drinking party out of it making some of them up. I want an extra one myself. Always afraid I am gonna leave my rope somewhere
+1 on the sea foam. I would never again put any ethanol gas in another power tool. it ruined my gas hedge trimmer,powerwasher, chainsaw and almost string trimmer. marine stabil will help, but when you only use them 1-2 x a year it's a problem. I only know of 1 place that sells no ethanol gas (brooksville) and it aint cheap. 20'-25' of rope would probly work for me, just don't know how many trees I want to set them up on.
Stihl, that's all that ever lasted and held up for us in the landscape business.... It costs more but lasts twice as long... Dependable and durable....
Ethanol has cost me a TON of money in the last 5 years. At the pump, and in unnecessary repairs :ban
typically places by the ocean or places for boats sell ethanol free gas but I found this link http://pure-gas.org/index.jsp?stateprov=FL . Last time I looked it was going for 4.33 a gallon but that was two months ago in Melbourne.
