Nice! My hero always forgets people's names.

Seems like a lot of money for a maybe.

Actually had the same problem as grant52 with my parents and tech. We switched to just printing out star charts and using a cheap laser pointer. The simple stuff really does work better sometimes.

Oh man, that's a heart-stopper for sure! I've had a redirect slip on a pine before and it's not a fun feeling. For something like that, I've really come to trust a simple running bowline on the redirect side, backed up with a half hitch. It just seems to bite and hold better under side load when you're sending a heavy piece.
