Default WTB - Rigging

That's cool. I remember when I was a kid my father went to a military
parachute rigging school. They had some pretty big sewing machines for the
equipment slings.


This is the original monster. Complete with table, HUGE motor, head,
everything. All together, I'd say the head, motor, and table weigh 150# or
more.

It's being tuned up right now, and I can't wait to get it back and start
some canvas projects I have in the pipeline.

I'm also going to get some nylon strap webbing, and make some of my own
lifting slings particular to my uses.
