Just wanted to take the time out to say a massive massive thank you for all the time you have put into your videos Kieran.
I passed my Doggers this morning with a 100% on both theory and practical.
Although my assessor was top notch, I could not have done it without your videos.

You have an excellent way of teaching, and explain in detail all aspects of the course very clearly.

You are doing a huge service to the trade with these videos, so much so our assessor from Competency Training Perth, even suggested to watch this video to learn the different methods of stillage lifts.

Thank you ever so much for this, your work with this channel is a making a job, that is inherently faced with multiple hazards, far safer for future generations. And for that I cannot thank you enough.

All the best and have a great weekend

Really helpful video. I have a prac exam tomorrow. We only have to do the third method. Single wrap choke back onto itself. Not onto the ring. I like the double wrap method. Looks more secure.

Hey mate, just wanted to comment and say love your videos. Keep up the good work!

[joshuadarragh]

Great video. Thanks for these as they are really helpfully I'm just starting out as a slinger in the U.K and would be great if you could do more of these lifting techniques of common things on site.

Mate, excellent explanations and variations in this video, great content!! 👍 very straight forward and easy to learn!❤

Just starting the video mate. But I would suggest that the first throw over would be on the inside of the already placed standing line so there is no pull against the initial basketing. Maybe that will be covered later on but I wanted to point it out incase the beers I’m drinking obscured it later. Cheers.

the second method was the best overall as it has the lowest nip angles involved at any point along the length of the chain so doesn't lower the lift rating as much, another thing to note is keeping chains as strait as possible (no or little twist) as that also downrates chains. every twist in the chain when lifting stresses it more and shortens its life. if doing a 4 leg lift the leg with the most twist will take more load than the other legs if the load is a regular shaped object as the twist shortens that leg and puts lateral forces into each link.

Are crane operators allowed to leave the crane with a suspended load?

[mudassarali]

Love from Pakistan very informative video good 👍

[adambailey]

You make some great videos, cheers mate

[AtTheHandle]

That would fail as the double choke didn’t properly choke when you wrapped it around the outside of the leg on the second pass around the posts there. There were definetly some loose ones in there still.

Good video well explained and not rushed

[persol]

very instructive video dude, i'd really wish if you could have/show a video using those larger chains you mentioned (26mm-32mm), tht wouldve been nice...one could always hope...thnx again for this

I am surprised you are not wearing gloves Kieran, especially as you seem to be in Australia.

[albertpepito]

Sir please more vedios for rigging . Good bless po

[abdullahchaidir]

Thank's shir i have subscribe i will always follow you thanks a lot

[spinnersink]

why not just put a double wrap across the middle, catching the stillage uprights on the last wrap? quicker and safer I would think.

[infeedel]

By the way, is it not illegal in Australia to exit a crane with a load on the hook? :)

[elite_fitness]

Double wrap with a single nylon and cable up. Id definitely use nylons, I always avoided rigging from the crane with chains when possible of course
