So, just use a larger piece of duck tape, what is the problem? Besides not sure what the significant amplitude of a cable can be achieved when nearing its breaking point that applies here.

Or it catches fire, or a dog grabs it, or an eagle flies away with it, etc. a piece of duck tape, a larger towel, or a simple tied square knot and a glass of water applied should get the focus back on track of the real issues here.

So now we are discussing two different scenarios keeping any safety accessory on a cable when in casual use and in place when the cable actually fails. The first seems easy to resolve and the second I repeat is likely not an issue and somewhat self correcting.

1. You know this how exactly? 2. I submit, the added hung safety item rarely if ever slips off a broken cable, mainly because the broken cable when it "snaps', almost never moves in a straight-line promoting slippage but actually "curls" and grabs whatever is hung from it, since the hung piece...

It's not just added weight here, the broken cable is moving very fast at the very end, conservation of energy, ala cracking the bull whip, the towels, etc provide additional wind drag, which is velocity squared?, and anything with surface area increases the cables area in magnitudes, and reduces...

Definitely not a 55 and up Trailer Park resident.

Is that a synthetic rope winch? For light duty that would be my preference, instead of having to wear gloves to handle steel cable. Be curious of any views from those that have used both.

This is the cat's meow. Installed one at my daughters house a few years back, city inspector said he had never seen one. Everyone loves it.

Having a sealed/painted floor helps reduce a potential big source of moisture thru the slab, unless a vapor barrier was place before the concrete, besides a number of other advantages, light, dust, spill clean-up, stains, etc

But why not paint with the fire-retardant paint? I am told insurance building inspectors dislike foam because it's hard to judge roof condition from the underside during inspections. Full disclosure, my sister is a GC in Fla that does foam applications for past 20+ years.

The flammability issue would concern me. It still can be painted I believe. It is the best insulator, and actually strengths the roof system slightly.
