[TowerTalk] Tower safety harness

[Grant Saviers]

White Cap has a decent selection and free shipping this month.  Had my 
Guardian 12111173 full harness on today.
2 side D rings, 2 chest small D and the rear D.  wide belt.  $94. Don't 
think I need more harness, although there are ones for $400+.

I'm have the twin shock lanyard fall arresting hooks, the wrap around 
strap, and am ordering a Guardian rebar chain hook goes to both hip D 
rings, the large clip gate will fit most tower legs, certainly the Z 
braces $41.   Also they have a short tie-off adapter which would work 
around a mast $20.
