3 $ parachute

by zodrik | March 30, 2013 | (12) Posted in Projects

Well this is an idea from ExperimentalAirlines and the this is the video link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kXqH3daEgAo

Usually what i do is a reduce the cost,cause when i was searching for the materials to make the parachute the bill was around 20$,of course with 20$ u can make out 3 of them,but i was just looking for one so i just went to the dollar store and I have bought a vinyl Poncho and a  sort of sport bag,

 

I cut a square in the poncho the same size of the sport bag

than i ply 4 time to find a center and make a circle

with rope and pen

then i cut out de line

 i put the 2 layers togheter

hot glue

cut around the edge

then i ply again to find the center

i cut a small halland flip out the poncho side from the hall

then i take the the same cord of the sport bag

make a node an put in the hall

fix with  tie wrapsshrink tubing

and that's it

Well with the rest of poncho u can make a princess dress

Sorry for the bad english,but you know i'm italian,and everybody knows italian peoples don't speack a good english,but we are so funny......
