Anyone use this type of chute? What are your thoughts on it? Is it easily broken down into multiple parts for storage?  |

the kind i have liked best were made out of arm thick oil field pipe welded together
no need to store them, it would take either
1. a whole squad of OL
or
2. a Dodge 3500 Cummins Diesel to move them
plus, when they got up too high, it dings the heck out of their helmets, they don't like that
thus they get down
kinda pavlovian but hey, whatever works
plus, it was free, donated by a local welding shop

I graduated from, is 30 yrs old. same shoot, just different layers of paint. why by new, when old pipe will do. |

are your chutes the individual type chutes or under one "roof" like this one, where you can go full line vs dline live?

never had an individual chute, wouldn't want one
we can work 4 lines of ol underneath, work steps, double teams, combos, even counter drills start from under there
