Instant, indestructible, nearly free, homemade drawcord threader

Not being so delicate with my equipment, I broke the drawcord threader. Looking closer at it, I realized there was no way this thing was going to last long anyways. I looked around on the net for a more durable replacement, but it just wasn't happening.

So, I went walking around Ardeth backpacking gear's compound to mull it over, and in the garage, I realized that the trimmer cord we had for the weed wacker would do just perfectly.

I cut off about a meter long piece and used one of my propane-powered mini torches and a pair of Kleins to shape loops on the ends.

Instant, indestructible, nearly free, drawcord threader!
