Ok, I'd refrained posting here for years, largely out of laziness. But tonight I unpacked from the weekend and dumped the bin on the floor.
Thar she is.

Well this thread may have ground to a halt, but thanks to a few boxing day sales, the beauty of Xmas and a bit of a buying binge late last summer, I have a trad rack!
Now it's just a matter of saving up enough to actually get to where I can use the thing

Eh, not really. Sometimes I take the whole thing, sometimes I don't. 5 -10 minutes top to clip the whole deal to a sling.
Maybe it's just an OCD...
And the wife only allows the one closet for all my crap.

No, I got that rope (teal one in the coil) in March? Anyway, it's still in the coil, I have yet to use it. It's a 70m beal joker. It'll get used this season for sure.

Seems like a waste to have all that and still live in Illinois.

Some of these racks are amazing; up untill the holidays I only had a rope, three biners, a belay device and some webbing... Christmass was good though with a set of nuts and draws.

Both gear slings are Chouinards. The bottom one, I think it is a Great Pacific Iron Works one, has only steel carabiners on it.
I just got the black ones, they're Stubai. I use them for Toproping. I have some routes I may be working this spring, and will use them as leaver biners to leave ropes in place to jug back up on. In the upper picture, the oldest Chouinard hexes I bought brand new in 1972, 35+ years ago and on occasional they still get lead rack duty (this is a toprope rack) -the orange sling #5 just got used on a first ascent last summer.
