Droppers

[benjo0211]

I know the conventional way of a dropper is the old butt end attached to the bottom but I was wondering if welding a flat plate to the bottom would be a more comfortable way, has anyone come across this

You'd better be confident in the weld and/or welder.

Are welds not supposed to be stronger?

Zip ties might do the trick.lol

Welded plate would take a bit of sorting.

Why not just weld a haki staircase to the bottom of each dropper.

two ft butt with a check fitting you have fixed it and your not relying on anyone else for your own safety its never let me down or you could set up goal posts and staff down so they all form the same level wouldn't rely on nothing but yourself benjo and to be honest there isn't much comfort doing any hangers bud you always wish you had one of them arms that pops out of your chest so you could use the others freely

 

[benjo0211]

They are only comfy if your small and skinny unfortunately I'm neither. Only haki trained scaffs would be allowed to do a dropper if that was the case

I don't know I am always in the Khazi when there's a hanger to do

Not the usual 'go on then il let you have a turn' then haha

Why not just weld a Haki staircase to the top of each dropper which will do away with having to climb up and down?

When I was up at Drax Power Station , there was a bloke who was going to patent something similar, not sure if he is still in the process

We have trialed a "dropper footplate"
This consists of a steel "sleveve" type construction with a cylindrical flat plate which slips over the end of the dropper tube fastened by the neck of a double to stop it spinning plus you still need a check fitting.
They trials have not been very sucessful as the Scaffoders still prefer to usea short but
