Can we safely stretch our 12mm #Dyneema #DIY Main Mast #shrouds & stays?
After Jane did all the #splicing for the main mast #rigging, we had to stretch everything
https://www.sustainablesailing.net/new-video-4/

Another 2 main mast 12mm #dyneema shrouds stretched to 1,500kg (despite strengthening the timber framework we feel this is the safe limit).
Then slight panic when the crane scale showed a low battery and we realised we didn't know where the charger was. Anyway found something from Netgear that seems to be working.
3 more to go (I think)

This morning we had the remaining 12mm #dyneema #rigging for our main mast in various states of completeness. That was so we could record video with some thick dyneema splicing tips we haven't elsewhere.
This evening Jane has finished two of the eyesplices for what's left ie 2 backstays, 2 cap shrouds and forestay. Just past halfway.

A cold North East wind today (over 20kts) so we did a quick trip to our shipping container, then Jane has been #splicing the first #dyneema main mast chainplate loop (much harder splicing 12mm than 9mm).
After some writing for work I've been working on wiring diagrams (learning and using #QElectroTech). I like that I can pretty easily create basic custom elements such as our Batteries, #Victron boxes etc.

Aufrüstkit für die #Lenkmatte. Ab jetzt mit #Dyneema statt Polyester. Frisch bei Colors in Motion in #Rastede geholt.

New tent, who dis? 🤩

While my current ultralight shelter is fantastic, this Durston Gear X-Mid Pro 1 is even more fantastic-y! Very excited to get this beautifully conceived and constructed tent out on the trail!

This my ultimate hiking nerd handicraft evolution. I have an awesome pack which, due to my stupid boney shoulders and collarbones, just isn’t quite as plush and comfy as I want. So, one $4 kids backpack from the Goodwill + $1 worth of Velcro + some free foam + some hand sewing = luxurious padding extenders for my comfort and happiness. So nice to just make exactly what you need. #hiking #backpacking #dyneema #maker
