Good luck.
TM 10-1670-201-23 is a parachute-fixing manual (Google it). I understand, it is not gear, but for military and strain-resistance designs and fixes, it is the closest gear-makers have come in terms of "their own manual". I plan on starting up a short book/blog as I dip into gear making, yes what I see works, and what doesn't, all in relation to the chute fixing manual as well.
