Some mad genius created the most insanely well designed, boring-but-useful thing and gave it away to the world. This is absolutely incredible, subbed.

I am from Brazil and I live in the middle of the country. And I use a lot of blocks to do heavy lifting. I really loved your invention and the fact that you made it open source is absolutely amazing. You have my gratitude captain! Fair winds and a following sea, as my grandpa that was a Brazilian navy captain would say.
