That looks awesome! Got a recipe?

 

About a dozen police cars just pulled up and blocked the Rupert / Broadway intersection in East Van. Anyone know what was going on?

P is the Proportional Limit, where it stops being linear, but remains elastic for a short while longer, meaning any deformation can still be recovered. E is the Elastic Limit, where it changes from elastic to plastic

BC's oldest cache, from February 2001, is an ammo can in Pacific Spirit Park near UBC: https://coord.info/GC1DD

Yes! Tons of great caches nearby to explore. Personally, I think anything put out by layzee_bones is worth finding. Is there any type of cache in particular you're interested in? Or just starting out in the hobby?

Glued and sewed a larger piece of gear repair tape to add fidelity to the ripped edge: Then sewed the rip itself with fishing line (the strongest thing I could think of to hold the weight of the bag's contents, plus I just happened to have it at home:

As of this post, I've been using it for a week, and it's held up pretty well. I may add some sealant later to hold things in place.

Now all that's left to do is replace a missing zipper pull and fix some rodent damage to the front compartment... I may post about that at a later time

 

The small rip was patched with gear repair tape, then sewn over. The larger rip will probably be my next project... any recommendations to make sure it holds?
