Off_White Posted July 26, 2004 Posted July 26, 2004 Okay, you can level with me. Can there be too much of a good thing? Is this overkill? When does a bolt become more of a rock picket? Quote
Drederek Posted July 26, 2004 Posted July 26, 2004 When does a bolt become more of a rock picket? When you can use it to pound a 16. Quote
lummox Posted July 26, 2004 Posted July 26, 2004 that shit is for soft rock. like at pinnacles california for example. Quote
cj001f Posted July 27, 2004 Posted July 27, 2004 that shit is for soft rock. like at pinnacles california for example. So you'll pull out a big enough chunk of conglomerate to surely kill your ass? Quote
chirp Posted July 27, 2004 Posted July 27, 2004 that shit is for soft rock. like at pinnacles california for example. Pinnacles is soft? try that baby in Arches...Mui Grande Quote
matt_m Posted July 27, 2004 Posted July 27, 2004 That thing is awesome! Yep - soft stuff like Pinnacles or the soft sand stone around the bay area (Mt Diablo for example). Is that sucker SS? Side note - why the heck are Rawl SS bolts so much more than Fixe SS of the same size? They can't be THAT much harder to manufacture... Quote
Dr_Flash_Amazing Posted July 29, 2004 Posted July 29, 2004 Okay, you can level with me. Can there be too much of a good thing? Is this overkill? When does a bolt become more of a rock picket? 's a thing o' beauty, innit? Quote
JosephH Posted August 12, 2004 Posted August 12, 2004 You guys don't even want to know what my wife thought about a bunch of guys hanging out on the Internet discussing the size of their tool when she caught a look at this thread over my shoulder. Bad enough, but then she made some disparaging remark about 6" being the best they could come up with between them - ouch... Quote
Alex Posted August 16, 2004 Posted August 16, 2004 it is overkill unless you are climbing in the desert southwest. for granite, Ex38, and so on you dont need "a thick 6 inches". Quote
Off_White Posted August 16, 2004 Author Posted August 16, 2004 Their application is for sandstone, just not in the desert SW. Quote
