I rounded just the leading edges.
The parachute is square, four sides, not the regular six or eight sides.
The shroud line reinforcements are very smart, Nomex jewelry tags.
"Nomex® is a tear-resistant, high-temperature resistant fiber. It is offered in paper, felt, fabric, and fiber forms."
I store the parachute in a zip style jewelry bag with the snap swivel out the top. This prevents tangles in the shroud lines.
Not Nomex, Tyvek.
ReplyDeleteI have mentioned these before....as I use the round versions to build/repair plastic 'chutes all the time...and I got the idea from an earlier one of Rick's kits.
