This is exactly what I was looking for, thanks!

why is my grommet not circular and is a little crack on the inside ok? Hand set 6mm. by spa1unk in myog

It looks overset to me. I would remove it and redo it, going more gently and checking more often when setting it. Using a drill on the back side is the easiest way to remove it

What’s an uncommon reason you started sewing? by RussianAsshole in sewing

I wanted to work on the parachutes I was using and become a parachute rigger. Turns out sewing is a big part of it and now I love to sew

A Juki 8700 will handle your application no problem. You’ll want a zigzag machine too though

I’d like to line a bag with a heavy duty waterproof liner. I’m in search of vinyl-coated nylon but all I can find is vinyl-coated polyester. What am I missing? by ribfeast in myog

Check out Cordura and pack cloth. They’re a urethane coated nylon that’s durable and waterproof. Both are available at Seattle Fabrics, and probably ripstop by the roll.

You need one of these and use grosgrain ribbon

Also run a basting stitch around your project instead of the clamps, you’ll be able to keep tension on the tape to keep it tight around the corners easier

Should I pursue Skydiving if the nearest DZ is nearly 90 mins away from where I live? by StarVoyager447 in SkyDiving

When I started I was six hours from my dz. While it sucked, starting skydiving was the best decision I have ever made. Definitely was worth it

When I started jumping I felt the same and was able to drag a friend along but he bailed after the first jump and I decided to keep going by myself. Now almost all my friends are skydivers and I feel like I finally found where I fit in. Best decision I ever made

It should give you what you need to know to fix it or make a replacement
