OK. Bob gets flamed...... AUGH!!!!!
Not this thread again! Freakin magnets???? Come on guys!! Does anyone consider what would happen if someone used these mounts for an anchorage point while working on a tank?? And please dont say that it is obvious and no one would do it because nothing is obvious to everyone. It would be obvious to clip in and have 100 % tie off but 2 guys have died so far this year after falling from towers with their harnesses in tact. My position is do it right or dont do it Bob Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry -----Original Message----- From: "J.

I have successfully used magnets on a couple of towers for 2 years now... I don't completely trust them, so I also run a safety cable around the mast and anchor it to a solid projection on the tower so that if the magnets did turn loose, the mast wouldn't hit the ground, but in two years, and through several thunderstorms and pretty good winds, the magnets haven't shifted a bit that I can see. -- John Vogel - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.vogent.net 620-754-3907 Vogel Enterprises, LLC Information Services Provider serving S.E.
