ABSTRACT:
A plurality of limbs or the like are secured together, to form a limb bundle (B). The limbs are positioned in a space defined laterally between a pair of posts (20, 24) on one side of a frame (12) and a second pair of posts (22, 26) on the opposite side of the frame (12). A windless (44) is supported at the upper ends of the posts (20, 24). A cable (54) extends from the windless (44) either downwardly and around the girth of the limb bundle (B), and then hooks on itself, to form a noose around the limb bundle (B), or it extends from the windless (44) down to and around a pulley (76), then upwardly and over a mid portion of the limb bundle (B'), and then down to a dead end connection (70) at a lower portion of the frame (12). In either case, tightening of the cable (54, 54') imposes a squeezing force on the limb bundle (B).
