I am with Southwestern Community College in NC. We have a launch coming up November 10, and we were having trouble finding a design for the harness or where would we start looking about getting one? Any help would be greatly appreciated. So specifically what I am looking for is the harnesses for the 2 payloads that were made in Boseman this summer.

There are some instructions in the MSGC project box google drive folder shared at the July workshop. The stuff from the July workshop in Bozeman was made from nylon strap bought from a fabric store and sewn with a sewing machine.
Most harness setups are unique to each payload and every team has their own preferences. In the past we have used bags made of rip stop nylon, nylon strap, or even para-cord. Other teams have used threaded rod or wooden dowels in conjunction with riveted eyelets or key chain rings.
It does not need to be the one from the Bozeman workshop, you may find other ideas that fit your preference. Some googling around and a little imagination you can come up with many many ideas that you may like.

Any chance somebody can make an instructional video (or detailed instructions with photos) showing how to rig the string thru the cutdown and attaching cords to balloon and parachute and parachute to payload?
Thank you so much. You guys have been great help already, so don't worry if you can't get to it.
