One point I'd like to make is that the first red block shown, does not have a bearing on the spindle as you said. These cheap Chinese blocks are mass produced and you will find that the spindle pin (axle) is simply metal to metal. Dismantle it and see for yourself. I did that when I was fabricating a twin sheave block , expecting to find a bronze bushing or roller bearing etc, but no, rough machined metal to metal finish!

i really like this a lot! it is very simple and very strong.
what i'd really like to see though, would be a padded, synthetic loop. basically, a softshackle that cannot be opened.
why? because it would give me more confidence when connecting a skinny, winch line to a vehicle, anchor point or winch line extension without introducing dangerous metal.
in these cases, a 3/8" or 7/16" synthetic line can chew up and cut through winch line extensions or even soft shackles.
If someone made a padded, synthetic loop, a winch line could connect to a winch line extension without any worry of snapping synthic lines that are connected to each other.
anyway, I'm in the states and would love to get my hands on this Dingo, but it doesn't seem like I'm able to. Good video! Thank you!
