there and back again
Topic Author's Original Post - Oct 23, 2013 - 12:13pm PT
I recently helped a friend out and bought some stuff from him. I realized I have been doing this for a long while and squireling it away. Now I have to decide how much of this stuff I really want. This is going to be the first installment while I sort this stuff out.

I also have an A5 single portaledge and a 3 person A5 diamond complete with flys. I'll get pics and dimensions later. Got to go to work now. Let me know what your interested in and what they are worth to you.

Do you know what size the removable bolts in the last picture are? Maybe it says it on the tag.

Could fit a 3/8, 1/2, or other sized hole.

Right, there are 2 sizes the blue ones are 3/8. Brand new, price on tag says $36 each! That was in 1999. Does not look like they make the 3/8 any more. The green ones are 1/2 and now sell for $60.

I think I should hold out for $30 a piece. John I am going to pm you.

Thanks for looking.

PM me about the nut tool. I had one like that years ago that a friend dropped off Dog Tooth Peak (although he still denies it). I loved that nut tool!

H - check your email spam folder. I sent you an email through ST mail message about sending you a couple of old guidebooks for your collection, if you want them.

For a good price, I'll buy that bit holder but not if it is really for taper bolts. I need one for SDS bolts.

Mark, that is a hurricane. Meant for High speed steel bits with a collet system. The can accept sds carbide tip bits if you chop off the sds part.

Great drill.

The Hurricane fits SDS drill bits just fine, without modification.
It's what Roger uses, and I have used one a lot also.

Clint- I have broken the collet twice from using a SDS bit without chopping off the slotted end.

Have you had that problem? The collet does not seem to grasp the area around the channel in a uniform fashion.

All of the bolts I've drilled on El Cap in the last few years have been with a Hurricane holder just like that. I haven't modified any bits and have had no problems.

mucci, do you have 25/64" collets (not 3/8")?

If so, I've never had a problem and I don't know anyone who has before you mentioned it. If you have a 3/8" collet then it's too small.

Josh,
The collet on mine has never broken.
I think Greg posted the answer - it depends on the collet size.
