    Documenting my hand-sewn eye process

    I understand that, that's why i mentioned lock stitching specifically, like the majority of the ppl here are trying to accomplish. But as far as Round/Parameter or whatever it's correct term is.. this is what i get with doubled up 12.7mm & the needle chocked up a bit in the chuck... Idk...

    Documenting my hand-sewn eye process

    Idk man.. seems to work fine for me.. 1/2in.. 8mm.. whateve.. the length has never been an issue lock stitching... If anything it could be skinnier & shorter for my smaller Cordages.

    3M Peltor WS-CUSH Bluetooth Headset

    "Adapter for the phone jacks" What you mean by that? I know the picture your posted requires a phone.. but does the next one your referencing require a phone as well? I want something, side from the Sena stuff, that works completely free of a cell phone.

    3M Peltor WS-CUSH Bluetooth Headset

    I don't know why something as simple looking as this isn't available at a reasonable price point without all the fancy media & Bluetooth streaming BS.. just an open intercom that can have infinite units added on, all built into the muff itself with three simple buttons, volume, I/O & Channel. I...

    Documenting my hand-sewn eye process

    Im currently using this one.. I think it's a good middle of the road needle.. No need for modification, fits larger thread, etc.. However even though I've snapped a couple being abusive with them, i do wish it was a bit skinnier for second & third passes on smaller cordage's.. 10pics Organ...

    Documenting my hand-sewn eye process

    Yes.. right.. there IS a 8 & 10 Ocean Poly. It's very popular & is available everywhere.. so common it's even rebranded at certain places. As far as the Vectran goes, I've personally never heard it referenced as 8mm nor have I seen it in 8mm.. Hence my original statement/question wondering if...

    Saw pants, saddle, misc gear

    I don't see it being listed as sold anywhere.. OP should edit & Strikethrough items that are gone..

    Saw pants, saddle, misc gear

    Chris.. the saddle is indeed a medium.. There's a tiny little tag on the leg pad.. hope that helps. It's definitely a comfortable, secure feeling saddle to hang in.

    Looking For New Tribe Onyx

    Not sure what size he has but i think Danimal is selling a newish, if not new, Onyx Saddle... If your not stuck on an Onyx, I'm pretty sure the Monkey Beaver is very very similar in design.. -edit.. yeah the ad is two below this one right now.. size 1 too. I'm pretty sure it's a good deal.

    Documenting my hand-sewn eye process

    So you've seen what I'm talking about then? If it is indeed 8mm with a Aramid/Poly cover & a Vectran core, that Cordage should technically be, super super strong.. However, they're listing the breaking strengths & descriptions as if it's 8mm Ocean Poly.. hence another reason I'm wondering if...

    Documenting my hand-sewn eye process

    Finally finished this thing i was mucking about with.. it's 4 passes for sure.. but first three rows weren't as precise & I have no clue why i didn't finish the last three stitches in line with the others...wtf..? Gotta find me some better heat shrink.. idk what happened to it but this stuff...

    Documenting my hand-sewn eye process

    Im not following you there bud... What is, "in fact they are two different things"... Are you saying Sherrill is "in fact" selling 8mm Ocean Vectran? & The 6mm I'm talking about or looking for doesn't exist anymore? Hence "two different things". Idk.. whatever it was that I saw, was labeled...

    Documenting my hand-sewn eye process

    Don't sweat it.. I've already forgotten what exactly it is your sending.. is it a modified needle or something.. or certain desired size? I can't remember. Ok so you pretty much just terminate like normal.. i just hate having to remove prior stitches in order to do so.. figured they're might be...

    Documenting my hand-sewn eye process

    Oh that's pretty fancy Moss! Now that i think about it, I'm pretty sure I've seen that before somewhere, i should have known it was you getting fancy. I was wondering about stitching the Tech Cord as i have a little 6mm DMM thimble i want to streamline with stitching as opposed to knots with...

    Communication Help

    Damn.. nice touch Deevo.. I'm not a big fan, at all, of how these things have to be intergrated/retro'd into helmets, etc.. But what you have going on there that looks pretty dang good. I'm not seeing the frail 28-30ga wires hanging out everywhere! Are the battery packs on those models self...

    SOLD...Pulley saver

    Parent sling is 10mm Beeline, Prusik - looks like RIT 8mm & both uncovered splices look as if they could possibly be hand sewn but its hard to tell with the fraying..Idk.. i could be wrong.. If not, that RIT was probably a bound loop with the shrink cut off to make it floatable. The hardware is...

    Documenting my hand-sewn eye process

    Woah.. my last post was long.. hopefully y'all got something out of that deconstruction.. I plan to do the other side, but with a much more patient approach. As far as the needle size affecting the smaller Cordage.. within my set of pics you'll see i tried two different methods.. the more messy...

    Documenting my hand-sewn eye process

    Hey.. has anyone noticed or had trouble using needles that fit larger threads like Tex-400 & then when you try to use a smaller thread the needle itself will hollow out the hole & make it harder to secure the lock of the stitch? I finally got some smaller thread thinking it would help keep the...
