Welcome to bessex, Blade Banter.
This is actually my second reply. I had my first reply 95% complete during my quiet early morning coffee before my wife and grandchildren arise. I checked UPS tracking from an email and inadvertently lost my reply. No problem. It gave me a chance to mull over a new reply and watch your video a second time.
High marks for your video. Well organized and technically fine. (refreshing
I was confused by your 14.2 reading. You don't mention your measurement units. It appears to be ounces. Correct? The BESS crowd work in grams, although we are not adverse to other measurement units. I suggest a short audio editing tweak to include your measurement unit.
Clever idea using the fidgit spinner. Inexpensive bearings. As last year's hot toy, every kid probably has at least one, probably several.
BESS test media filament has been thoroughly tested. Your fishing line may be, too, however, you do not present any supporting documentation. Some reference to fishing line tests would give weight to your testing.
Securing your line needs to be 3.0, especially using your tester with multiple knives. The problem is not your design; it's the operators. Most do not have any more manual dexteritythan I do, and most have less patience. Stick with it; you need more prototypes to efficiently secure your line.
I wish you the best of luck with your project.
