"me and my friends" --- is incorrect English!
  • Incorrect: You and me are going to school together.
  • Correct: You and I are going to school together.
Using the objective pronoun in a compound subject is considered grammatically incorrect. Also it is incorrect to to place the personal pronoun 1st. Correct grammatical usage would be;
  • Correct: my friends and I.

Another fact, nobody cares that this is wrong english. He isn't like publishing a book or something. I am not trying to be rude or anything.

Nobody cares? Speak for yourself. I prefer proper grammar as well.

I like people like you. Many of the "teens" today often use short forms of words such as "u" instead of "you" or maybe even dis" instead of "this". I really want many teens to use proper grammer for educational purposes. Another fact is that there is spell check integrated into instructables text writer.

My point exactly. No one types perfectly all the time. A small typo here and there. Really we were just talking about GRAMMAR. Are you happy F.V?

You can also make these types of slings from 550 paracord in some really neat colors. They sell them here:

This is a very good idea! It's very well documented, and beats the crap out of most 1st I'bles I know! Nice job! Although I think you should build another I'ble where you show us how to use a sling?

P.S: I gave you 5 ***** ( 5 stars )
