@DougNg This is not what we use, but could be the better option for a sweater

You can doing using the old phalanges if it is only one or two. One of those jobs where it takes a while to learn the correct combination of manipulations but when you do it goes quick. I'd add that on a sweatshirt you'd be fine, but on a whipcord N-1 it probably won't work.

@DougNg:

@Giles , what tool are you guys using to get the paracord through? I have a couple of really old sweatshirts that I refuse to let go and I'd like to put new drawstrings into since the washer/dryer ate them.

@DougNg  I just had a look through online to try and find the tool that we use but for the life of me, I cannot find them.

Here is what they look like:

They come in different sizes so depending on what time of paracord you are trying to run you may need a few different sizes. I will keep an eye out for them and let you know if I come across them again but you probably stand as much chance as I do in finding them.

Boom! After a bit of time last night looking, I thought I would try again this morning:

What is the shortest inseam length that can be achieved with the 814 indigo? I want to chicken leg some pants

[sabergirl]

Shortest? Getting you some booty shorts?

All joking aside, I think you desígnate the inseam man. They’ll chicken leg whatever pants you want into shorts. For the 814 you’d need to take into account the side too pockets and loop. Otherwise, do whatever you want for length!

I want to wear these with my assless chaps.

Allow me To Clarify the 814 are painters pants and they have the side brush pocket. I was wondering where that fell and what would the inseam length  be there? Can we go shorter or will it look bad. I am not if
Long leg so I’ll need like an 11” inseam

In the details of the white 814s it says 10.5…personally i would go 13 or 14.

I’m thinking of throwing my SExIH od type III in the wash but i’m not sure what the protocol is for jackets. Do I turn it inside out like jeans, or leave it as is?

I’d turn it inside out if it was me, but only as a precaution. It probably isn’t necessary with OD’ed denim.

[DougNg]

Soak the shit out of it first and then pour all of it into the wash

If you have a machine with a center agitator turn that motherfucker off

Should I let my wife cut my hair?

[DougNg]

My wife stopped coloring her hair and cut it to shoulder length and now she looks like Mallory Archer.
I live in constant fear.

@Matt:

Should I let my wife cut my hair?

Has something changed radically in relationships between men and women during this crisis? Surely you mean, “Should I continue the pretence that I have some say in what my wife does with her hair”?

[Matt]

No no, I'm talking about my hair.  My barber is effectively out of business.  Sure that's sad, but what about my grooming needs?

I've been looking at YT videos on how to do a simple fade with clippers.  I'm not trying to have her cut the length on the top or anything.  I'm still a bit dubious about letting her do it though.  These are desperate times however…

[neph93]

Oops, my apologies. Sometimes I don’t pay enough attention. Yes! Do it. It’s win/win. Either it ends up good and you save money post corona, or she butchers it completely in which case she owes you big.
