I'm looking for some ideas or pictures of shelf limiters for a TDS. The Alum Pole Style.

I'm looking into making some small pouches. I've been looking at Dyneema, is there another fabric I should be looking into?
these will be used by scouts for first aid and small items.

I watched...

That's a great wheel, I hope to do something like that with no digging.
I have thought about 2x4 end poles, black iron end poles and just tripods.

We need a lot of amsteel for this, where can I...

Great video, his second option on it is what I was thinking about. hammock to tripod, tripod to ground. I was thinking about 2 tie out points though not just one.
I think it would be easier to tie...

Ill try to look that up.
I'm trying to put several boy scouts (1 patrol) around 1 tree.

Question for a multi hang around one tree.
My idea is, a tripod one end of the hammock and the tree on the other side. However instead of a connecting pole, can amsteel be secured to the tree, then...

ill take it

your messages are full.

It might be easier to tell some of the y9unger scouts to use pads and bags. my older ones may do fine with quilts tough.

what temps are they good for?

id hate for everyone to die laughing at my tarp, its also in a patrol box right now, but maybe ill dig it out.....

I have to say, making tarps kinda sucks😁
That seam down the middle is pretty tuff to do. There is just so much fabric hanging on my side waiting to be sewed that it's hard to get through the...

I'm a ScoutMaster and more and more scouts are getting hammocks.
I'd like to present some ideas to Patrol Leaders on patrol hanging systems.
I've seen the turtle dog and 3 person hang system. Are...

I think that loop knot is what I'm looking for!
I want to put several loops for ease of use in an am steel length.

I'm wanting to make tree straps extensions from am steel. I want it to have loops in it for adjustments. What kind of loop or knot should I use. My test ones pulled out.

Yes the tie down buckle that came over the pack for the roll top lid was broke. I bought the replacement at the same time I bought the back pad for it.

Sorry fixed the message issue.
I have no idea on the year of manufacture. I bought it on here last year.
I've never tried to remove the belt, but I believe it does remove. (I can check this when I...

Yes it does. Large in size, pouches are size med I think.

Mountain Hardware Thruway 50
bought new 1 year ago, been adult used about 12 times. Love this Pack! A little small for Philmont so I got a larger one.
Very easy to carry, very good shape, could...

Thread is Mara 70
Needle 90/14

Now my stitches are really small, and me adjusting them doesn't do any good.
I guess it's always something.

I think I got it, cleaned the bobbin area and slowly adjusted tension and found what I think is a good spot.

I don't think this machine has adjustable bobbin tension.

Didn't know anything about bobbin tension....;)

I'm using a ce-5000prw project runway special.

While sewing SilNylon I can get the back loops to close up.
I've changed the tension from one extreme to the next and can't find a spot where it...

Awesome thanks!

Quest has a Lite weight nylon and a lite weight Grosgrain.

Anyone know which one is thinner?
This is a binder for edges, I...

Do you guys know if you can buy different thickness of grosgrain?

I need this for projects, but don't need all the thickness of strap material.

Yea I'm going to make him one.
It's hard for him to see the value of better materials at the age of 13.
He sees atlas straps and enos everywhere.

It's a thermarest that he likes the feel of.
The main part he said he wanted was a larger hammock.

He's hammocking with other scouts who have ENO's and I saw him looking at a hammock in a sporting good store the other day by grand trunk I think.

So who knows to be honest, he's in one of those...

My scouting son wants a soft hammock...........??? what is said. "you know soft, not that slippery hard stuff"(his words)

Soooo that being case. Any ideas on "soft" hammock materials?

not for sure how tall he is, he's 13 and not as tall as me, but taller than his mama!

yea I just bought what the info graph said to buy on DIY Gear.
I'm sure we can cut the size down a lot. that would be a big blanket.

I was thinking this would be just an extra warmth blanket, to throw over a sleeping bag or so forth. I guess we will see when I make it.

I might have to rethink the size of it, if its going to be...

I just ordered and received 3 yards of 3.6 climashield insulation to make a blanket for my scouting son.
Im shocked on how big the folded bundle of insulation is. I did some test of squeezing and so...

Anyone know what the buttons and levers are for?

New to me. I don't know anything at all about this machine, except that my mother in law says she's had it forever.
I did see a made in Japan stuck on it. I'm going to clean it up some tonight and...

Here's what I got.
I don't know anything about it. other than its old and smell like grandmas house.
...

My older relative happens to have a machine that she couldn't lift to take out of the garage ;) soooooo I told her I would help her remove it in the next couple days. :) ill let you know what I show...

You guys are too technical for me. :)
I don't know anything about fabric! or Sewing machines. I just want something to make scouting gear on and saw this machine listed for $60. It looks in great...

Is a singer model 15 a good sewing machine? It doesn't have a power cord. So I would have to find that also.

Ive been using a project runway machine, and hoping to use something better.

does the "Cub" compress well for packing? If so, how does it not compress while sleeping?

Im a big guy, I don't need my AmSteel fraying.
I guess I just keep these hooks in a pile of other stuff, or think of something else to use them for.

my fabric is not that wide. I need to flop out in my old hammock and really pay attention.

Im about to make a new hammock, iv never slept in one with a footbox.

Are they worth making? it would seem to help for sure.
Are their plan available? I haven't seem any with my googlefo.

That's a great video.

A "pillow hat"....how about that! Kind of a funny idea. Its always there tough.

I like the shock cord idea, then I can adjust it. I also like the idea of it being on the ridge line. Currently my...

I have an rei inflatable pillow, I thinking of making a "bag" that stays with the hammock tied in and then I just inflate and insert.

I had no idea speed hooks were discontinued I still have a new set to use on my new hammock im making now!
