Tried using a 3/8 inch tagline on a 50 ton lift last week instead of my usual 1/2 inch. The swing control was way better than I expected.

It's funny how often the lighter tool gets the job done better. We get stuck on bigger being stronger, but control usually wins. That tagline is a perfect little example.

Reminds me of trying to get a rounded bolt out last week. Grabbed the big impact gun first, just made it worse. Switched to a small hand ratchet with a cheater bar, felt it start to turn. That control you mentioned, @the_harper, it's everything. Sometimes you just need to feel what the metal is doing.

A cheater bar? @the_harper, that's living dangerously.
