Clothesline winch

Randomly browsing, I stumbled upon this. It's a clothesline tensioner. It's small (3" in length) and fits a 3/16" rope at most so it obviously can't be used to lift a person (not that you would want to with this particular design) but it certainly can be used as a bondage tightener. My first use was as a hogtie tightener. I just kept turning and turning until I got to the desired tautness. While it does have a release mechanism, once you've put sufficient tension on it (like in a hogtie), it's actually quite difficult to make it release because you're basically trying to push the release with your fingers while there's 200lbs of force preventing you.
My wife quite likes it too. She usually has a preference to use leather straps/belts on me because she can easily tighten them if I manage to create any slack. This winch allows the tightening of rope, especially around the chest, without having to re-tie everything.
