When you have spare DWG and too much spare time...

You make the world’s most unnecessary ID Tag lanyard.

Anyone else have fun uses to surplus Dutch bling?

Cheers,

Someone needs to be hanging

Residency position makes frequent hanging a challenge.

However, I’ve slowly converted a few of our students to hammocks!

I've used Dutche's Dynema rope to make soft shackle style key rings. Also left over zing it to make a dogbone to hang my shaving brush up with. Most recently used up some spare zing it to make a continuous loop that I use to attach my leash to my surfboard. Oh yea and I've used left over argon 90 and climashield to make an insulated water bottle holder before. As well as a useful food but bag for keeping meals hot ( sized to fit the Dutch food bowl bags of course ).

I thought about it some time ago, but decided having a loop around my neck that has an average breaking strength of 1600lbs might not be the best idea I ever had...

I'm with you. All my ID lanyards have safety clasps that open pretty easily.

Thanks for posting what I was thinking.

On a barely marginally related note, I helped my son build a trebuchet for a science project. We used 7/64 Amsteel to suspend the weight from a hold drilled in a southern yellow pine 2x4. We had to redesign after the first test fire when 50lbs pulled the rope right through 4" of SYP. The rope was undamaged.
