It works well, but it works best if you pull out the filling so that the cord lies flat. I find that this greatly reduces any wear from the holes in the lames.

lmgtfy.com/?q=paracord+stretch

One reason some doing grip wraps remove the core filaments is the amount of stretch. Yes, paracord stretches. It stretches to a point and then snaps. One is unlikely to break a single line in the context of what is being discussed, whether gutted or not. Gutted cord will make for a stiffer flexibility (less stretchy after being pulled tight).

A T-10 has 30 cords, so one is not stretching just one when jumping

christain Member It's the steel on the inside that counts.

I've often thought of making 'dragon-scale' armor out of garage sale and flea-market spoons. One is only limited but by the constraints of their imagination!!!

I considered making my own plates once, but I need a drill press. Buying the pieces online was just easier for me, though would be costly if I wanted a full set of armour

If you choose wisely and pay attention to sizing, you can have a full suit of plate for CHEAP...and it's good stuff!

For lamellar thicknesses, they work wonders, and the cost is much lower than a drill press.

Sir Thorfinn: Trooperwill - we'd all love to help. My suggestion is to start posts with 3-4 swords at a time so the forum can give you our best guess, as the prices can be a moving target. Just my .02 Dec 4, 2024 15:01:52 GMT

mrstabby: Hello, welcome even under these sad circumstances. Maybe put out a thread in the Renaissance/Military subsection. Nov 28, 2024 6:52:12 GMT *

mrstabby: Been thinking the same - but the person that set up the page might not be there anymore and old code gets messy when not maintained. Might be a "repair subscriptions, destroy function X, repair X, destroy Y" situation by now - would mean a total overhaul. Nov 18, 2024 7:29:27 GMT

choseychas: Huh. Is there no fix on our side then? Or is it that you need to contact an admin since the auto system is down? Nov 18, 2024 3:58:50 GMT

eastman: problems with the forum software are the cause, not a goal to limit the club. There is an error with the software that messes up activities that require the sending of email. Nov 18, 2024 3:57:36 GMT

choseychas: That's what I figured, wasn't sure if it had become a limited club where you have to know someone to get in or what was going on. Nov 18, 2024 2:39:40 GMT

alinkinthechain: I also do love Boston. I've traveled a bit and nothing feels as wonderful as that city to me. I'm lucky to live nearby Nov 12, 2024 15:28:16 GMT

eskiso: someone can help me to identify a sword and its origin, to see its commercial value please. 2346
