www.kickstarte... Here we’re doing a couple tests. “Full link” and “ tension locking”. Tension locking is what you would use while setting up a tarp, rain fly, or tying your gear together.
you should have tested one without covering. Friction usually works by concentrating force, but you can see the paracord sheath covering rotating, so it may have spread out the force and actually reduced friction…
@@First_Class_Amateur I'm surprised you didn't think of that to begin with. I was looking at it and trying to figure out what the secret to popping a top was, assuming you'd worked some crazy way to use it to open a bottle that I just wasn't seeing. 🤣
@@nyetloki oh yes, that's an intermediate method. Also good: using cutlery, PVC bottle, lighter or on a table, wall, door frame, that little slot on the opposing side of the lock, the beer case etc.
In 8th grade, just finished science fair on how strong is paradors really. The removed figure eight knot decreases the paracord’s strength the least at 75-80%
Thanks. I am going to work on that this week. The European Union changed shipping laws, so I have to set up an account to collect their taxes. Once I get that going, I’ll open it up to all countries, including those not in the E.U.
@@First_Class_Amateur looking forward to your shipping to Europe! Keep us informed, please (and have a nice large selection because larger purchases will mean a relatively cheaper shipping cost 😅)
@@First_Class_Amateur totally get it, that's a tonne of work. Had no idea that was required 👍 wishing you all the success with the Kickstarter 🙌 you deserve it mate 🍻
I guess you could heat the whole thing for a bit after its assembled to make the paracord shrink/stick on the loop thing. I don't know what good it would do.
I don't know how you feel about hunting, but I recently got into saddle hunting, and these guys are out here paying too much for gear hooks. You wrap a strap around a tree and hang your gear from them. If you look into it, I'm sure your creative thinking could modify these hooks to be used for that purpose. You'd have another selling pool to dip in.

@@First_Class_Amateur I can easily imagine that it could be quite difficult to manage :/ But if you succeed that would be fantastic. Thanks for all the videos 🪢

@@First_Class_Amateur I’m sure there would be a market for that clip. If the shipping is not too prohibitive in cost. It looks like a great product, it’s not going to make a dent in the wallet, make a great useful gift; the user can mod it. Chicken dinner, it’s a winner! In all sincerity well done
Why is the statement @4:34 even relevant.?You aren’t testing those ropes, you’re testing a steel loop of wire with a braided cover…. Am I missing something?
i'm a linesman, i tie off my ladder to power poles every day. does anyone have a ladder-pole tie off suguestion for: 1. fast setup/takedown 2. self tightening (with Twisted Polypropylene Rope) 3. safe (wait, safety was supposed to be 1st right?)
