PIF...

Toli · Feb 12th 2014, 7:20am

BB just made a custom stove for my son from a bottle I sent him, and in return I told him I would make him my version of a Survival Bracelet, made from old skool Bozeman Mountain Works Air-Core Pro Dyneema, the 2mm stuff... He said "PIF" as he has one... Sooo, I will, and would like to make one for a newer Hiker... Mine has been part of my EDC since 2005(mine is made with their 1.8mm Dyneema) Let me know if ur interested... Since this cordage has NO stretch, I recommend you measure ur wrist with 2 fingers on top to make sure its long enough... This is what it will look like, but I think I have Green Nite-Ize Paracord, or maybe Purple now...

I have one of Shellie's and like BB, would feel greedy getting another. However, I'd like to nominate Ewok if she doesn't have one.

That's fine with me... I would deff like to make one for someone who does not already have one, and appreciate you and BB not being "Bracelet hogs" lol... gif.004

It will go on all my future long hikes including the Camino.

Thanks for the offer Toli, I actually made one last year, but don't wear em, just wanted to try and weave/tie one. I'm going to re-purpose it into a set of 'Ranger Beads" for keeping pace count, been fooling around with a compass, something I've wanted to get back into.

Well I should take it then. It would be a reminder of your son. SS made me one at 7.5". It is snug but will wear good I suspect. I like green. Maybe I will design another stove and send it later.

Awesome brother, done deal... I will make it a smidge longer, as it REALLY has no stretch at all... I do have some green Nite-Ize cordage I will use... I already told you if want a "field tester" for ur stove designs just let me know... Working on a post for ur Alchy stove thread right now...

The EWOK should get it. But dont think this frees you from receiving another stove. Your son has one, but you don't. I am messing around with a new concept. If I get somewhere, you will get one. If not, you will get one of my current design.

Last thing I saw on them they are getting much better at stopping them.

That's all SS's doing JJ but thanks for the thanks and a re-thank for the rock sack. Gave it a whirl a few days ago and it worked great. Chances of me getting hung up in the trees just got a lot less.
