Abandoned by high transmission line crew when they changed out a pole.
I don't know exactly.Hook2.0 said:What are we looking at
That would be my guess, or when putting in a new pole to attach to the top of the old pole so the old pole could be pulled out of the ground by a crane.Bright Raven said:I wonder if that was used to carry/handle transmission poles. It locked onto the pole and then the boom could pick up the pole by engaging the loop.
The design allows it to tighten down on multiple sized pole diameters.
Well, you're 1/2 right. Doesn't belong to the crew anymore...JMJ Farms said:That doesn't belong to the power crew. I left it when we were down there working. Thanks for taking care of it. I will pick it up next week.
That's for sure. Lucky for them I didn't run over it and tear something up. You could make a living picking up behind these guys. That thing must weigh twenty pounds.greybeard said:Well, you're 1/2 right. Doesn't belong to the crew anymore...JMJ Farms said:That doesn't belong to the power crew.
