I was just gonna hold the cords, but now I think I might need a harness.  I pulled a couple seatbelts from a '82 Chevy Vega and think I can make them work with some minor modifications.

A pinto seat belt might be stronger than the Vega if you can find one.

Actually, I considered that.  Unfortunately, all the ones I could find seemed singed.  I thought that might affect their structural integrity.  Safety first.

This might be the dumbest post I've ever read on here! :laugh:

 

And ain't it true that parachutes haven't been made out of silk for like 100 years? The last time I memorized the World Almanac, they were made of ripstop polyester.

Terri Mae does not approve this message, but screw him.
