BOC manufacturing instructions?

[scottcave 0]

I remember seeing some really good instructions for making BOCs somewhere but can't find them now. Anyone have a suggestion of where to look?

I was that kid jumping out if his tree house with a bed sheet. My dad wouldn't let me use the ladder to try the roof...

Section 7.6.3 But not how I make them. Alternative instructions? Find one, look, copy.

Ahh, yup. That's the one I was thinking of. Thanks!

You can buy one from Para Gear for about $15.
Maybe less.
Do you really want to manufacture something from a paper drawing, when a new one is about the cost of two or three cups of coffee?

You pay how much for coffee?

And it's not like it's tough to build one. Hell it takes longer to sew it onto the container then it does to build it. $15 dollars for a pre made BOC? Shit your getting ripped. Buy a sewing machine.

Unless one doesn't know where to find a good Spandura of the right type, or whatever they're using these days. Any ideas?

I have 8 industrial machines. Let's just say I am intelligent enough to figure out the cost-benefit ratio of purchasing a small 'parachute grade' item versus the purchase of traceable materials and the labor and time in producing one homemade item.

Knock yourself out.

That won't work. That's paper and would probably tear. He needs spandex.
