but will it blend....

*edit* better yet can it survive being placed in a hollow paint can and put in a paint shaker, specifically this one

Dave, this made me laugh so hard!

I had an idea once to make a blog called "ExtremeElectronics" where I would solder, calculate or some other electronics-related task while rock climbing or water-skiing.  This is pretty much what I've been wanting to do for a long time!

I was wondering, do you use a dry-rope for those water rappels or just man up and carry the extra weight on the way back home?

Dry treatment is a bit of a myth, it doesn't help much for canyoning, the ropes still absorb the water. And the dry treatment wears off pretty quick in this environment and pollutes the creek. So I just man-up and carry the extra weight on the way out, sometimes two packs if someone else can't hack carrying theirs. I had over 100m of rope for this 30m abseil.

Dave.

Dave,

How about the skeet shooting test... :P


We have HUGE canyons here in Michigan BTW.  They are just filled with water at the moment.
