I got my hands on a scrap of Dacron sail cloth just this week and apparently it's next to indestructible.
Has anyone ever made a sling pouch out of cloth/canvas? I considered making it apache style but I don't like apache slings lol
Any ideas? maybe origami or some fancy folding?
Dacron? seems likely to be soft but strong... and likely rather thin.
Try laminating it using rubber cement and sowing... Aussie style sling.
Or you could use duct tape... Aussie style sling.
Or you could make one of those "medical tape pouches" using duct tape.... and Dacron.
Or you could just cut a very elongated rhombus, tie a loop in one end, and a knot in the other.
Makes a good EDC sling.
If you do try to fold it, use a steam iron to heat it up. It makes folding most sorts of cloth easier.
