You on blood thinners, that is heavy bleeding for a fall. Looks like you ended up with compartment syndrome, scary, hope no nerve damage.
And for it to work, the line needs to be the size of the hole, a smaller line will just slide through, friction is all that keeps it taught.

I have a dozen or so of these and am cleaning out a heap of stuff. They would be 60-80 years old (ex my father) and were used as something to do with tent guy ropes. I want to know how they are threaded or used ?
Forgot to add that google was no use. Google seems to be only interested in things made (and for sale) in the last few years. They do look a bit like things used for climbing or something to do with various English car top ends but these were specifically for guy ropes (actually I am not too sure about that since my father was known to make do with other bits). I vaguely remember that old tents used a lot more tension on the guy ropes with steel springs etc to keep everything tight so it may be something to do with that (thanks longshadow).

Tie off the line on the D part, run the line through the hole creating a loop, slide it up the line and let go the line should stay taught.
From the time I could grow a mustache in high school till after my oldest was born, I had a mustache. Then I went clean shaven for a couple of years, after I turned 30 and lost my left leg below the knee, I started going as a pirate for Halloween every year and needed a beard so I started not shaving between the start of Fall and the beginning of Spring so half the year I'm clean shaven, half I have a beard.
I love mine. Find it very sharp and I mostly hand hold. I've shot Jupiter and can blow up the image and see the eye and it's moons.
Get one with a 1" sensor and the output is really good. I have a FF, crop sensor and 1" cameras. I have taken the same shot of a scene with each and compared, there is a difference but I can print a 9x13 print and they look great and unless you pixel peek you wouldn't know.
I love my 70 to 300 because when hiking, it gives me close to a normal lens and a decent telephoto but the real plus is it’s close focus. I can take pictures from flowers to wildlife with the one lens. I carry the small 35/2.8 Zeiss if the 70 is not wide enough.
LOL, have to go with original. Think they cropped to tight on picture two

Is that truly the angle of view of human eyesight?
I believe not from personal experience.
So again why was that chosen? 35mm is much more recent than many other formats.
Normal is not 50 mm in all formats, only FF or 35, 35mm is normal for crop sensor. Most camera manufactures do an equivalent thing where they say it is a 50 mm equivalent, because as has been stated that is the size lens on a FF camera that gives you the same angle, not field of, view of the human eye, meaning when you take your eye from the view finder, the things in the scene will be the same size as you were seeing in the view finder.

I like it!
I had never done focusing like that, but isn't enough to set the lens to Infinity by using the infinity symbol?
You would think, but no, for starters, the northern lights are not as far away as say the moon and if you have focused on the moon you know it is not at infinity.
I can't, that is why I've always had a small camera I could keep with me. In the 70's I had a Minolta 16, now I have a Sony RX100.
Growing up in Evansville, I can say that he is a much loved favorite Hoosier.
Years ago, I have some of my mother, photographers would walk the main street, etc. and take random street shots and hand the person a card letting them know if they want to see the shot and maybe buy a copy, to come by X shop and there would be a shop set up with a big window displaying all the shots he had taken that day or what ever period, This practice is what these laws were talking about. Just taking street shots, since you are not trying to sell them, is not what the law is talking about.

He is wanting the camera supported from the roof while inside, how would a bean bag even work?
