PhreeZone 20 #3 June 1, 2006 Nice... on a Reserve too. Is it E-thread or seal thread? Based on the nice sewing job I'd say seal thread.Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hookitt 1 #4 June 1, 2006 Exceptional sewing skills and attention to detail. He should have used red thread on the repair though. That grey pattern doesn't quite match the original but it's darn close.My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry...

darkwing 5 #5 June 1, 2006 Some quality work there. It would work, but it is ugly, and not a confidence builder. It isn't my work is it? -- Jeff My Skydiving History Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

koppel 5 #8 June 2, 2006 after all that great work it's a shame they couldnt line up the marks on the loop. I like my canopy... ...it lets me down. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jdthomas 0 #9 June 2, 2006 not that it is a skydiving parachute but I have seen a lot worse while working in the powered parachute industry. I saw one canopy that the lines got cut in a prop and the owner of the PPC just tied the lines at the cut point with a fw knots thinking it would work and the best one was a guy used some heavy cord he had in his barn for a new steering line!
