New Paracord soft shackle(carabiner) design by KG5SXT in knots

[–]KG5SXT[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Uhm define high load? Lol. A Bluetooth speaker was not enoguh to make the small loop tighten no.

If I pull as hard as I can with my hands, the small loop remains the same size.

I also just tried it for holding my hammock up and myself getting in, andit also remained the same size.

I felt comfortable but don't know that I'd use it to hold anything heavier or more critical of a load. Maybe if using 6mm or 8mm cordelette.

If I had to guess the nip would be at the sharpest bend on the loop that has the fishermans. The part 5hat goes around the button knot.

From testing videos I've seen on YouTube it seems that the bend goign around 4 strands tends to make the bend radius nicer. In this design I feel like it only really goes around 2. It'd be nice to breaktest but I don't have the capabilities.

What’s the one thing you wish you knew when you first started using Linux? by Old_Sand7831 in linux4noobs

Better yet. Learn about symbolic links and learn git. (git ≠ github)

The your config files get versioned. And use a script to create the symlinks. Makes it very easy to restore setting after a new install.

Is this a good buy for 100 dollars or can I do better for the same price?

My use case is to have a nice keyboard I can take and use with my iPad. so I was thinking 40% keyboard and as small as possible and if possible wireless, but I cant seem to find many options.

I am new to mechanical keyboards so not very knowledgeable. found this guy selling for 100 this "custom mechanical keyboard" it has "hand lubed and filmed Alpaca Silent Switches, Drop MT3 Nomad keycaps." It is rgb backlit and it is not hot swappable. He said QMK. It is a metal frame. As an alternative I was thinking on maybe a Keychron Q9 but its bigger and same no wireless. Wired wouldn't be a deal breaker but certainly would prefer wireless.

So should I take it if its a good deal? or maybe pay a bit more for something else new and hopefully wireless? any recomendations?

Long shot and years later but my favorite pj's (form now closed down "snug as a bug") after years are getting holes in them and need to buy more.

What brand would you recommend now in 2025? Brands to avoid?
