Reply to: Thinking of moving jib blocks to trampoline - problem?

[quote=texastuma][quote=charlescarlis]The track is standard Ronstan, 5/8", I believe. Looks like I'll need to likely need to fabricate something to bolt onto the slides, which I can still get. Not terribly difficult, just a pain. Thanks![/quote] Let me check. I think I have an extra set of cars and triangles from the Prindle 19. They may be the same track. I think they are Ronstan cars. [quote=charlescarlis]Thought about that, but I THINK my jib overlaps a bit, so a traveler and track on the beam might not work, but will have to check that out. I'd have to re-cut the jib, if not get an entirely new one made, I think. Real estate on the trampoline is not an issue. :-) I'm merely trying to improve sheeting so that I can get it to point higher. I think that before I do anything really permanent like drilling new holes into the beam, I'll play with replacing the jib cars with some custom built jobs I can run a cable between and experiment with configurations. That can be un-done easily with no harm/foul. Otherwise, a track on the front beam makes a lot of sense. At that point, tough it's a self tacking jib setup and be done with it. Which, ACTUALLY...[/quote] I think you would lose 1/2 the size on your jib. I thought about that with Franken to keep the tramp simple, but I have gotten to where I like the jib power and can handle it easily.[/quote]
