I Had 2 Hours and a Pile of Scrap Canvas… So I Built This
Wrapping up bigger canvas projects means a lot of leftover material, so Steve takes a couple of hours to knock out a quick, practical upgrade for Arabella’s 100-foot nylon anchor rode. Replacing an old, non-draining nylon stuff sack that was a hassle to flake rope into, Steve builds a custom "bucket-style" rope bag from scrap sailcloth, a breathable mesh bottom, and spare webbing. Armed with the Sailrite machine, he adds heavy-duty carry handles and a top clip system to ensure the line's eye-splice never gets lost at the bottom of the bag.
