That's everything...Halyard, sheet, parrell, lazyjack, spare halyard. I’ve estimated total 200 meters of line for my Penny 26 sail.

I can then take the made-up construction home to the 80-year old patch machine I got from a shoe repair shop. The free-arm design allows a lot of tricky stitching. Not quite as seamless (?) as a professional upholstery job, but one that I can afford and maintain. Plier-staplers are available in big-box office stores.
