Re: Ramps

If you want to be really specific the word tether in the English language has absolutely no reference to a attachment wire that provides power to another object. Both tether and leash are defined as cables used to limit a domesticated animal's range of movement. It's not exactly confusing to use the word tether to describe methods of attachment ether powered or not interchangeably.

Funny enough. We use a COTS retractable dog leash as our tether for our ramp. $10 from a local pet store.
