First, do it now, while its not to hot/cold. running cable in the attic in the summer sucks. you kinda need 2+ people to run cable. it can be done solo, but that brings in so many more complications, beer for buddy. so yeah, like /u/xmangusx said, you don't want electronics up in the attic, top of a closet should be ok, somewhere a little more climate controlled. i haven't run cable in residential in a long time, but did do up a new floor of a building, and work at a datacenter, so take the numbers as a rough guide.
even if you think you want just 1 jack in each spot, run 4 cables to each room. alot easier to run a bundle of four now, then to go back and add in cabling later, even if you just let the bare end dangle behind the drywall. below is some suggested parts:
1000FT Cat 6 Bulk Bare Copper ethernet cable
4 hole keystone wall plate
cat6 punchdowns
keystone blank plates
electrical box
punchdown tool
network cable tester
24port patch panel will work in 19inch rack
wire line puller
pull string
so 1 blue box, 1 wall plate, a few blanks ( as desired # of ports) per room. start in somewhere a little less important like say the laundry room, or a closet, so you can get a hang of using the drywall knife to cut the hole, how big it needs to be etc. you will want to be near ( but not to close give liek 6 inches) to an electrical outlet if you can. use a studfinder, it should be where the electrical outlet is ( which side is the box on). find where the electrical cable comes through the 2x4, move over enough to account for stud width plus a little fudge factor, and drill a small hole, maybe 1/4 inch, just big enough to get the end of the fish line through. cut small hole in drywall near the electrical outlet ( opposite the stud) start with maybe 2 inch by 2 inch, will need to be bigger later for the box. run the fish down from attic through the stud hole you drilled, behind the drywall, and find it in the small hole cut. attach pull string to it, and pull it back, and keep pulling the pull string all the way back to central location. repeat till have all holes cut, lines run. now you will have a pretty good idea if you will need 1 or more cat6 1000ft spindles.
the hard part is going to be getting around in the attic, and simply finding a way to get from point a to be with the cable, creative use of a drill bit will be necessary. the punchdown blocks that go into the plates are color codes, do all A or B throughout the house, don't mix-n-match ( B is more common ), and is color coded. only will need a crimper, ends, is if you want to custom make the cables going from patch panel to switch, hint just buy 20 or whatever of appropriate length cables premade from monoprice, like $1 each.
expect 2 people who have never done this before, this to take more than 1 weekend.
I've seen several places where they use one of these tools to tension zip ties, and they can pull them pretty tight. Definitely not recommended for cables
This is the line pull I used: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0026TA6WK
along with this cable lubricant: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000WTN3I0
Absolutely run the cables before committing the concrete. Also seal the PVC conduit joins with PVC cement, otherwise they will eventually become waterlogged. If you haven't already purchased the Cat6, I recommend shielded outdoor-rated direct-burial cable, like this.
I also suggest running some low-voltage cables along with the Cat6, so you can power external IR illuminators like these, which are way better than the IR LEDs in the cameras, and also avoid insects, fog, and dust from triggering motion alerts at night.
Good luck!

This was the first result for 'noose' on Amazon!
They ran out of zip ties and started using twist ties for cable management. When they ran out of those too, it looks like they used pull line left over from pulling network wires through conduit.
It looks bad, but it works.
Copy and pasted from one of my other comments because I’m lazy at this point:
Thank you! Only cost about $30. Ordered two rounds of sisal rope from amazon, 5” L brackets from a local hardware store, used scrap 4x4 for the post and a 2x6 board with scrap carpet we had from when we re-did our bedroom last year.
We are going to add two carpet shelves on the open side so she can jump down more easily.
EDIT: my inbox got destroyed so here’s more details on how we attached everything. We used an industrial stapler. We stapled the carpet on one of the sides (the one in the wall) as well as stapled the sisal rope as we wrapped it around the 4x4. We put the stapled sides directly towards the wall.
The shelf is screwed in the the L brackets which are in studs on the wall, the sisal post is both screwed directly into the wall as well as secured on the top and bottom with L brackets.
EDIT: here’s the rope we got. For a 6 foot post we used two rolls. T.W Evans Cordage 23-410... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DKA3OGO?ref=yo_pop_ma_swf

Klein Nylon Tie Tensioning Tool
Yep, it's about continuous usage, but also keep in mind that articles with suggested time limits for nipple clamps always seem to err on the safe side by an extreme margin. I've had clover clamps on for 1hr+. It was fine.
People's bodies are going to react differently, and also different types of clamps will cut off circulation at very different rates (i.e. these vs. these vs. these vs. these [NSFW], etc.)
Just take them off if you're turning purple or becoming numb; don't worry too much about specific time limits. Honestly I've never heard of someone getting injured from using nipple clamps for too long. In the grand scheme of BDSM safety concerns, it's pretty low on the list.
Hey, welcome back buddy. You haven't posted in here in a while so I thought you might've killed yourself. Glad to see you're safe :)

I wouldn't worry about it. It's part of the aesthetic and [shouldn't be too difficult to replace] (http://www.amazon.com/Lehigh-Group-530X-Twine-Heavy/dp/B000VYBB0I/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1397028584&sr=8-1&keywords=twine) if you ever need to.
When I worked HVAC and installed flexible insulated ductwork, there was a specific, specialized tool that was pretty awesome. The conduit secured to the boots with these massive zipties, way bigger than even the handcuff-sized ones.
You looped the tie around the junction, started it in the clasp, then put the end of the tie into the ratcheting hand tool. Then you just squeezed it, released it, like a hand exerciser, it pulled the tie to a tension you could specify (strong enough to crush a galvanized steel boot if your weren't careful) and when it hit that spec-tension, it automatically clipped it off even right at the clasp.
And all this took about 10-20 seconds. I don't know, but I'd almost bet there is a similar tool for many smaller ziptie applications.
Edit: it MAY have been this specific one http://www.amazon.com/Klein-86570-Nylon-Tensioning-Tool/dp/B004G3RO5G
I like it a lot. I had several requirements for an antenna
After hemming and hawing and Googling and reading eham reviews for what seemed like forever, I ultimately decided on the Titan.
Meets all my requirements. Mounted on a tilt base, I can have it up or down in a minute or two. No radial field required as it's a dipole, just vertical. No coils or traps to fuss with and it's a more efficient antenna as a result. Very good on 10-40, just so-so on 80. Has a nice low takeoff angle for working that sweet DX. Can be ground mounted, doesn't need an elevated mounting position for optimal performance.
It's holding up very well. Gap says it doesn't need to be guyed and will withstand substantial winds , but 60+mph winds are a routine occurrence here and it whips around a frightening amount, so I've devised a quick attach guying system for it with 3 guy lines that run down to some tent stakes in the yard with some camming rope tightners attached.
The not so good. I find the choice of sheet metal screws to hold everything together questionable. On the main mast, this is acceptable, as there's no access to attach a backing bolt anyway, but on all of the stub sections, I would have much preferred to see proper drilled holes with machine screws. To its credit, everything holds together just fine and nothing has loosened on me. I give everything a quick checkover once a month.
The copper wire that comes with it for the 40m hoop is awful stuff. It's stiff and prone to kinking and breaking. I swapped it out for some Flexweave wire and I'm very happy now.
Some more pics to give you a better idea of size. It's 25' tall and weight probably 25 pounds or so. It's a piece of cake to walk it up and down on the tilt mast.

No clue if this is going to be helpful, but I agree that those clamps will rust if they live outside and I'd like to provide some ideas from a campers perspective, as we like hanging tarps. All of these options need some small rope/paracord/bungeecord/whatever and something like an stainless eyelet screwed into the post, though they end up being simpler mechanically and easier to adjust.

I got these last year. They work well, but I dislike the carabiner they come with (it will catch on the paracord if you're not careful). But, I think a carabiner is worth it versus a plain hook. Personally, I ordered two sets, just to have a spare in case the paracord snaps. It never did all last season, so I can recommend it. Also, while you can ratchet as tight as you want, you really should just make sure it is secure, and not overdo it. The bow and stern lines are just for secondary support...the main support is from the side straps on your boat.

Last year I owned a recreational kayak, and had it on the roof of my car using the following:
foam to protect the car and on which to place the kayak: https://www.rei.com/product/672423/riverside-universal-kayak-replacement-foam-blocks straps secured over the sides and tied through my car windows: https://www.rei.com/product/853269/riverside-heavy-duty-utility-straps-twin-pack-15-ft tie-downs for the front and back, and secure it to a metal non-moving piece of the car: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00IHQHYPI/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Note that with the straps, you'll want to twist them so that they don't make an awful buzzing sound!
you should be able to do this pretty easily. just make sure you attach it really well in case you pull through a tight spot. nothing worse that a line coming free in the middle of a conduit somewhere. (former network installation tech) if you wanted to future proof it in case you need to add more lines later, get a roll of [fish line] (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0026TA6WK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_OW8GAbE743V36and) and pull that with the new cable.

No problem! :)
Oh and just a few things to add:
Watch some videos on how to set up hammock and tarps. shugmery is an old youtuber who's an entertainer by trade, so he makes fun upbeat videos that aren't boring to watch.
Also in case you forget the knots that you learn to get the tarp to stay in place on the ridgeline (that one line to hang the tarp that goes from tree A to tree B) get these really cheap tarp clips for $5: https://www.amazon.com/TEKTON-6268-Tarp-Clips-4-Piece/dp/B00A50NB24/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1468442049&sr=8-1&keywords=tarp+clip
You can have the tarp in diamond/triangle formation, two ends secured to the ground (with pegs that come with all tarp purchases for free), and then the two ends that are hanging on the line you can just clip in place with the clips (which uses screws to tighten, not merely by clipping).
Be sure to bring cordage, which I assume you have, if not you can get 50 feet for like $5, or 100 feet for $10: https://www.amazon.com/Paracord-Planet-Mil-Spec-Commercial-Orange/dp/B00ACL4KJO/ref=sr_1_2?s=hunting-fishing&ie=UTF8&qid=1468442435&sr=1-2&keywords=paracord
DO NOT get 25 feet, because they still charge you $5 like for 50 feet, lol.
Sorry to add about $15 to your budget :)
This guy has the right reply. The conduit to use.

Put this in the conduit to pull up cable leave a spare for future.
https://www.amazon.com/Klein-Tools-56108-Poly-500-Foot/dp/B0026TA6WK
Leave 6” to 12” of conduit above the top plate and use a conduit clamp to secure it to the top plate. Have the conduit stop just at the top of the conduit “box”. Tie it to the cut in box with some wire so it stays in place. The cut in box has two screw holes so you can attach any type of plate you want. Drill in the center of the top plate. If you have insulation you will need a fish tape. If you have a fire block you will need a an extra long auger but they make them three foot long and the are designed for pulling wire. Klein and Greenlee make the industry specific tools. Good Luck !

Also looks like various cambuckles at: http://www.strapworks.com/High_Quality_s/28.htm at least one is 3/4"
For tie-downs, you'll likely need two straps on the sides and two tie-downs on the front/back and something underneath the kayak to hold it in place and not damage it/your vehicle.
For the front/back, you can get this one, which I just got as it has good reviews on Amazon and the ratcheting combined with the carabiners seemed good to me: http://www.amazon.com/Malone-Racks-SpeedLine-Ratchet-Tie-Downs/dp/B00IHQHYPI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1463786146&sr=8-1&keywords=malone+tie+down

Here is my setup. Lots of hair and dirt, but the seats look brand new when I take it all off. None of the hair ends up in the front seats either, even with the windows down.
First I lay down a large black towel on the seat and tuck in the edges. Then I have a black Formosa Cover that wraps down to the floor and around the ends of the seats. I tried a normal pet hammock before and it wasn't nearly as protective. I have fitted the hammock with some velcro on the seat ends so that they stay in place after many jumps in and out. I also have the floor end of the hammock tied with rubber twist ties around the seatbelt because my girlfriend's dog tries to crawl under it often and this stopped that.
The doors have Kurgo Door Guards with 3M non-slip grip surface added to the inside face of the door guard and black velvet added to the outside (glass) face for the tinted windows. I tried an adhesive door guard and it was junk.
Lastly the Solvit Pet Barrier keeps my girlfriend's dog from jumping over. I also found that it keeps pet hair out of the front so I have it up even when her dog isn't in the car. I do not tie it down as shown in the product page, as the pet hammock keeps it in place.
Chinook Tarps set the standard. There are also comparable nylon versions for cheaper.
Chinook Tarp (Sand, 12 X 9.6-Feet) https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B0052SXFXE?ref=yo_pop_ma_swf
Tarp clips (e.g. these on Amazon), kitchen implements (e.g. spatulas), plastic or metal rulers, belts, bondage tape, clothespins, rubber bands.
If you want good and cheap (but a little heavy), the 12x9.5’ Chinook on Amazon works great for car camping and/or short trips. EDIT: not quite as heavy as I thought, reviewers like it Chinook Tarp (Sand, 12 x 9.6-Feet) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0052SXFXE/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_i8p2BbT99A8XN
A Warbonnet Thunderfly is a great option for maximum coverage without needing full doors. Personally I’d go with the Silpoly option.

I wanted to post an alternative to the wicking materials they are using but I am too new a member to ECF and the powers that be will not allow it, whatever... I thought the thread was so awesomely educational. They did miss a big one though. Why did no one think of using cotton butcher twine instead of candle wick or gauze? Seems like an obvious wicking material to me. I do like to cook so I use it quite a bit and it can take massive amounts of heat without burning and it is 100% natural cotton no bleaching, dyes, or anything other than cotton for that matter. Also it looks like the perfect diameter and if it's not it's only twisted so it's easy to add strands or remove them. $5.54 for 184 feet: http://www.amazon.com/Cotton-Butchers-Twine-185-feet/dp/B000I1WNV0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1343885999&sr=8-1&keywords=cotton+butcher%27s+twine

Oh my god you're a fucking moron. Did you even read my comment? If you are discussing theory and this is your reply to my comment, you have a fundamental misunderstanding of the theory. The other explanation is you read something incorrectly, which wouldn't be such a problem but then you adopt such a cunt tone in your reply.
In theory
>Anything that can be done with a regex can be done with a finite automaton, and vice versa
Where did I state that recognising an email is impossible with finite automata? If something can be recognised by a finite automaton, it can be done with a regex.
Your original comment said that you cannot do this with regex but can with finite automata, but in theory
>They are equivalent in their expressive power, they both recognise the set of regular languages.
Anybody who has a semblance of an idea of what they're talking about will agree that they are in theory equivalent. So you can do it with regex, in theory.
Your article that you linked but didn't read carefully, states this same fact.
>And can you fully implement the complex grammars in the RFCs in your regex parser in a readable way?
It talks about the practical issues, e.g. being able to do it in a readable way with regex, because in fucking theory they are equivalent in their expressive power.

You should look up some bondage techniques and tying guides before you get started so you know how to properly secure your partner without cutting off circulation. You should also look at the different restraints available.
Personally, I prefer cotton rope as it feels comfortable on my skin and it's easily accessible at most online retailers and sex shops. However, many prefer hemp rope as it's more durable than cotton.
Handcuffs and other restraints can be used as well, and they're usually the best for beginners as they don't take a lot of effort to put on and take off. I suggest looking at these options and see what you and your gf would prefer for a good experience.
Probably with tiedown straps of some sort. Something like this. I don't know anything about that brand just showing as an example.
Thanks for all the info. How do you secure the under quilt? I was thinking of getting those clip things and using those plus para-cord to hold it up
From America's Test Kitchen Season 6: Grill-Roasted Pork Loin

WINNER
Rated as HIGHLY RECOMMENDED:
Librett Cotton Butcher’s Twine - $8.29 (2 cents per foot)
> This ball of 100 percent cotton twine tied and held foods without burning, fraying, splitting, or breaking. It made neat, even ties around braciole and whole chicken and stayed in place without slipping. Although any cotton twine might perform as well, this brand releases string from the center of the ball, letting us pay it out with no danger of it rolling off the counter.
**
Rated as RECOMMENDED:
French Linen Butcher’s Twine - $9.99 (3 cents per foot)
> This compact ball of linen twine comes in a clear plastic container with an opening for the string and a small blade for portioning lengths, but we still needed our kitchen shears to snip off ends after tying. Thinner than cotton twine and slightly more expensive, linen proved just as strong and simple to use.

RECOMMENDED WITH RESERVATIONS:
Trudeau Food Tie Wraps - $14.20 for 6; reusable
**
NOT RECOMMENDED:
Fusionbrands The FoodLoop Trussing Tool
> Although they held up to searing in a hot pan and roasting in a 450-degree oven, we needed more than one set of four textured 13½-inch silicone ties to tie our braciole at 1-inch intervals. Spaced 2 inches apart, they let the rolled meat bulge in between and left ugly indentations. As for trussing a chicken, these loops pulled the legs to one side as we tightened the cinch, making the bird lean, which resulted in lopsided roasting.
Could you get someone to sew some pannier bags for you? I'm pretty sure their are DIY patterns out there and I've heard it's super cheap to get clothes and bags custom made there (could have heard wrong)
I wouldn't recommend welding a metal box unless you've tried every other option because for sure there would be drawbacks with that.
Just in the meantime, can you get hold of a bungee net like this?
https://www.amazon.com/Fuel-Helmets-Bungee-Cord-Cargo/dp/B001RBQF4G
If so you could probably put your current backpack on top of the rack and strap it down with the bungee net.
I don't know about cruiser bikes, they are very heavy and slow, not much good if there's any hills around. I'd way rather adjust another kind of bike to the sort of ride position I want. If you really want to change the handlebar position there are more drastic options that haven't been mentioned for bringing it higher or closer (swept back trekking handlebars, stem extender).
A regular MTB is maybe not the best choice for commuting (though you can do worse), but something like the Giant ARX 2 works better and is what I would recommend if you aren't doing extreme offroad riding: https://www.giant-bicycles.com/us/arx-2
I've seen a similar problem before and I think you'll be just fine. The top two clips may not fully close but it is not the end of the world as long as the clip "eyelets" are resting flush on the rack. First, I would make sure the bottom adjustable arm is adjusted to where it will prevent the bag from moving upward. Then I would get something like this. I would test different sizes to find one that doesn't put too much pressure (or friction) on the pannier, but enough to prevent it from moving too much on bumps. It may not look pretty, but touring is not for the narcissistic. I would definitely test your set-up on several shorter 1-2 day rides to make sure no friction is occurring which might tear up your panniers and that (most importantly) the panniers won't pop off the rack frame or slide around. Though this is just good protocol with any new gear.
Regardless if you go this route or not - DO NOT CUT your RackTime rack. It is tubular aluminum so it won't rust, but it also is a lot weaker than steel. If you cut it, you could really jeopardize the integrity of the rack (which is probably rated at a little over 50-60lbs as is), and set yourself up for a catastrophic touring accident. Given the money you spent on those nice panniers, I HIGHLY suggest supplementing them with a Surly Nice Rack up front. It's steel...and it's heavy(er)...but it will fit the Ortleibs very comfortably and will last a lifetime. I have two Ortleib FrontRoller Classics on a Surly Nice rack in the front and and works great!!!
I imagine something like this would work.
That's just where it ended up at the top at the end of the grow so it's wired to the top, normally I use Polypropylene rope to hang it, I like knots and rope work so adjusting the lines every 2 days or so as the plants grow is fun for me lol. BUT if I was normal, I would just buy ratcheting hanging straps from amazon that are made for grow lights.

I’m more of a bowler hat guy than an fedora guy. But I will take your advice and buy some rope. But I have a question. Should I go with this hemp rope(https://www.amazon.com/Twisted-Manila-Rope-Hemp-100/dp/B01GH0MHG6?ref_=Oct_BSellerS_511394_3) or this Manila rope(https://www.amazon.com/T-W-Evans-Cordage-26-011-100-Feet/dp/B00DKA3S6A?ref_=Oct_BSellerS_511394_9)? Or do you recommend another type of rope?
A couple of quick ideas:
Kelty Noahs Tarp
B.A.S.E. Tarp
I also have a smaller green tarp I keep in my jeep that I picked up at Target (I think) that one side is a tarp the other is a blanket. It cost less than 20 dollars. Good luck.
Two 6 inch reusable Gear Ties. Super cool and many uses, besides being fun to have at your desk.

Hey fellow 4runner owner! Here’s what I use. The Thule straps are awesome. So simple to use and so secure. Using an additional 1 foot webbing loop, I’ve strapped 2 iSUPs (6” thick apiece) to the roof.

I have iSUPs but sometimes I’ll inflate at home and strap to roof the night before. They way we can just put in right away when we get there. I deflate after our paddle and put in the back on for the ride home.

I seriously love the Chinook 9.6'x12' tarp. tie offs are great, long enough to make doors, and wide enough for two. A bit on heavier side, but is still light and packable. I can pack it down to about the size of a 40oz beer
Just get a Nite Ize Camjam and don't worry about anything else. https://www.amazon.com/Nite-Ize-Aluminum-Tightener-Carabiner/dp/B00XVP9ZPM/ref=sr_1_13?ie=UTF8&qid=1496112801&sr=8-13&keywords=nite-ize+carabiner

I keep a Doan bar in my fire kit (along with a LOT of other things) as a backup to my Ferro rod, because the Magnesium shavings will light even if they're wet. However, they're useless unless you can put together a good tinder bundle.
If I were you, since you're starting out practicing in your backyard, I'd get:
• The Mora
• A good Ferro rod, like a Light My Fire or a Firesteel Armageddon (my favorite and what I use)
• And some Jute Twine.
Learn how to carve feather sticks and focus on getting fires started with natural materials and a ferro rod, as well as fluffing up the Jute Twine for making tinder bundles.
Also, use the Jute Twine to practice tying useful knots that will come in handy for setting up your tarp later.
I'd get the tarp and some paracord next and practice setting that up.
I'd save money and get the canteen and cook kit once you're actually ready to go out and use them.

I agree with captaingorliia, she gets off on it more than I do, I think because of the time it takes to do it right. I do like the look and utility of it, and my wife LOVES suspension - takes away all her "control".
The rope I use is...
hemp, cut off the stupid metal ends and bind with twine, otherwise you or she will get tagged in the face. not good. I also throw new ropes into a pillowcase and toss that in the dryer with a few towels to soften and loosen the new rope, makes a big difference in comfort.
Safety Always -have some trauma shears nearby, carry a knife so you can immediately release anything that gets dangerous.
Learn how to make a simple chest harness first, then a two-column tie, everything else builds on variations of this.

I get the vast majority of my toys from Amazon.
IMO, the lines over the hull are just there to keep it from sliding side to side or lifting up and bouncing off the rack if I hit a bump. The bow and stern lines are by far the most important for keeping the boat on the rack.
I tie a bowline around the bow and run the line to the front cross member of the rack. This keeps the boat from sliding off the front of the truck if I were to hit the breaks hard. Then I tie another bowline around the stern and tie a truckers hitch around the rear rack cross member. This tensioning truckers hitch is essentially trying to slide the canoe off the front of the rack, but it can't because of the line tied to the bow and front of the rack.
I agree with others that if the boat is moving on the rack, it is more of a problem with the tie down method than with the rack. Use those cam buckle straps (https://www.amazon.com/SmartStraps-Cambuckle-10ft-GRN-300lb/dp/B000X1YUZC) or learn how to tie a truckers hitch and the boat won't budge.
Pelican is great if you have the money. But you can build a homemade plywood box for 1/4 of the price that works equally well. Just make sure your robot is supported by the frame (not wheels!) and that it can not move inside the box - we used car tie-downs (like this one) to fasten it to the bottom.
I would recommend this is the perfect time to upgrade to a Kelty Noah's Tarp 12 - 2013 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B009R9FUI2/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_pJTTAb3F5X5C2

In the first pic, I'm on my knees, head pulled back by the D ring on the harness gag, neck pulled forward to the frame of my bed, arms pulled backwards, and also have a line attached to the cock ring of my chastity cage pulling behind me. Effectively stuck in that position. Release for this one is easy enough, I just unbuckle the cuffs when I'm ready to be done.
Second picture is one I do often. Spread eagle, arms, legs, thighs all pulled to the corners of the bed, Balls pulled toward the foot and harness gag pulled toward the headboard. Again, basically stuck in that position, I couldn't really move anything more than an inch or so in any direction. Lovense vibrator on my dick set to a 25 minute cycle of teasing short 1-3 second bursts followed by 3-5 seconds of nothing. It did a great job of not letting me climax before I was released by an ice ring system.

Thanks, I just used 3/8 inch sisal rope, though 1/4 inches should work too. Make sure it says it's oil/chemical free. Here's a link to the exact kind I got. It's easier to wrap if you wet it first. I haven't had to change it yet, but he just discovered it's really fun to chew on and not actually scary a week ago.
One disadvantage to Cat Tree - it is ridiculously expensive for what it is. Get few 2x2s in Home Depot, and pet safe sisal rope from Amazon and manufacture your own :)
