\n\n\nUsed to sew gear way back in the day, 20 years ago with a sailrite but sold it. Had some ideas, and wanted to get in to some aviation upholstery and MYOG. Juki LU-2828V-7 arrived about a week ago. Absolute work-horse, excited to start working on some ideas but damn am I rusty.
\n\nIn picture is just a 6x6x12 pouch I made for some day-trip backup clothes. It's terrible but was fun to re-learn a bit.

\n\n\nThese Dickies are dadgum comfortable jeans. The problem, with jeans in general, is lack of pockets. I have a couple things on my belt, but am not interested in a duty belt.
\n\nI am spoiled on Spiewak's EMS pants. 17 pockets, 10 of which are useful routinely. The other 7 are rarely used, but still nice.
\n\nSo, I would like at least 2 more pockets on these jeans. I have 5 pairs that I never use, but would like to.
\n\nI have finished one pocket with a zipper and a welt. First one, but I am digging it.
\n\nOpinions? What do you think?

Wanting to start adding wire frames/support to certain bags for rigidity but not quite sure where to start. Those of you who bend wire yourselves, explain yourselves (please)!
\n\nSome questions I have -
\nWhat gauge / thickness do you prefer?
\nDo you use mild steel, aluminum or stainless?
\nWhat are some of the tools you use for the job?
\nDo you use anything to cap wire ends? If so, what?
\nAm I dumb?
I generally make fancy tote style bags (see attached picture *my favorite bag to date). This bag sits upright by itself but when not loaded the bottom flares out and looks dumb. Thinking with a wire frame at the base and supports in the corners running vertically for example I could make some beastly bags.
\n\nAlso don’t let the photo fool you, I currently have no access to a welder and am looking to purely provide wire support with some hand tools and clever design.

\n\n\nLove the aesthetic of this bag but the inner storage with 5 inch depth is too much. I don’t carry much. Just a laptop and notebook. So the problem is that they move around too much, the bag sags and doesn’t quite feel right against my back.
\n\nSewed some leftover fabric to the inside of the back panel. Definitely ugly. But functionally is amazing. Now this backpack feels great on my back. The laptop and notebook basically hug my back now.

\n\n\nI wanted some lightweight waterproof overpants for wearing around camp or during long, cold descents when bikepacking.
\n\nInitially, I bought a pair from Decathlon, but they were bulky and heavy for something I've only used once so far. I decided to try making my own, aiming to reduce both weight and packed volume.
\n\nI didn't need them to be breathable, and I wanted to be able to put them on without taking my shoes off. I also wanted to keep things simple: no Velcro, zips or pockets.
\n\nFor my first attempt, I used the Paco pattern, but the trousers turned out too small. I suspect the pattern is intended for stretchier fabrics, as I couldn't get them on, and I wasn't able to modify the pattern enough to make them work.
\n\nFor the second attempt, I went with the Green Pepper RS500 pattern.
\n\nThese have turned out a bit wider in the legs than I'd like, so I might narrow them for the next version. I still need to try them on with trousers underneath to see how they fit in practice.
\n\nThe pattern includes an optional internal pocket for folding the trousers into for storage. I'm not entirely happy with how mine turned out, as there are some creases along the sides that don't look great. For the next version, I'll also add a flap over the opening, as the slippery silpoly tends to slide back out of the pocket.
\n\nI'm a little disappointed with the final weight, as I'd expected them to weigh about half as much. Still, I've saved around 200 g compared with the Decathlon trousers, and the packed volume is roughly a third of what it was, which is probably the more important improvement.
\n\nI thought this would be an easy project, but it turned out to be more challenging than expected. It was my first time making trousers, so perhaps I was a bit too optimistic! The hardest parts were getting the pattern right and cutting the fabric accurately.
\n\nOn the positive side, sewing silpoly was easier than I'd anticipated.
\n\nOverall, I'm happy enough with the result, and I've learned a few things for the next iteration. Hopefully, I'll get the weight down further and improve the fit and stuff pocket.

\n\n\nSince an original Sailrite was a bit too expensive for me, I bought a Sailrite clone from China and decided to modify it. First, I machined a custom steel Monster Wheel on a lathe. It weighs just under 4 kg (about 8.8 lbs).
\nNext, I installed a new 180 W servo motor and fabricated a custom steel motor mount for it.
\nI also designed and built an Arduino-based motor controller. I 3D-printed a mounting bracket for the electronics as well as an enclosure for the entire controller. On top of that, I made a few other modifications to the machine, including a 3D-printed housing for the stitch-length adjustment mechanism. Finally, I built a case to make the whole setup reasonably portable. There was quite a bit of machining, electronics work and 3D printing involved, but it was a fun project!

\n\n\nMy original plan was to make a \"side car\" for one of the vestibules, but my dog likes to sprawl out when sleeps, so I made a larger inner instead. The layout is similar to an X-Dome 1+ with the inner expanding to fill one of the vestibules. There is a velcro opening in one of the end panels for the pole to pass through and a reinforcement patch where the handle of the pole sits on the floor. I used 1.6 oz HyperD PU4000 for the floor to provide extra protection from my dog's nails and 0.67 oz noseeum for the walls. Total weight is ~475g after seam taping.
\n\nWe used it for the first time on a 6 day trip a few weeks ago and it provided ample room for the two of us. For reference my dog is 65lbs and quite long. In hindsight, I could have saved some weight and gone with a lighter fabric for the floor because the Thinlight pad my dog sleeps on doubles as floor protection.
\n\nOn a side note, I have one of the original Drop branded tents and it uses YKK LB-RC 15mm side release buckles to clip the inner tent to the fly at the peaks. If anyone has suggestions for where I could source them (I'm in Canada) or for a buckle that might be compatible I would appreciate it.
\n\n(Dog tax included at the end.)

\n\n\nI recently purchased a bit of Ultra TenX and X-Pac UX10 to play around with.
\n\nI really like the color of the TenX. It's very saturated and rich. The TenX is also easier to sew and bind compared to the UX10 because it's a bit stiffer and doesn't crumple quite as easily.
\n\nI will say that the UX10 is harder to cut. I found that I could cut the TenX with a razor in one pass. The UX10 took multiple passes... Sometimes 3 or more. The primary fabric of the UX10 cuts easily, but the x-grid just didn't want to cut sometimes.
\n\nBoth crease easily and permanently.
\n\nAnyway... They're both pretty cool fabrics. I whipped up a couple of different wallets, and I'm planning to make a day pack one of these days. I like the red and white and will probably use some combination in the pack.
\n\nWhat other items would make sense to make with this stuff?

\n\n\nFirst real project using cool fabrics from RTBTR. Took inspiration from the Sockdolager throw bag for the shape and then made it a little more beginner-friendly to make. Has 70ft of polypro rope in it. Gave the two white ones to my packrafting buddies and kept the yellow.
\n2nd project was the learnmyog tech pouch. Want to get into making backpacks but a little hesitant with my Singer HD.
\nThanks for all the great inspo posts in this sub - I’m loving the MYOG community 🤘

\n\n\nThis might be my favorite pattern that I've come up with. It comes together relatively easily and the pack is a really nice functional size.
\n\nOnce I get my new shop up and running, this is going to be the pack that I am going to have students make in the shop for their first project.

\n\n\nJust finished up a wedge framebag for some upcoming ultras this year. Volume came out at about 9l. Historically, I wrote these off as a poor utilization of space, but being able to carry all of my water on-bike has been incredible. The bottles on my down tube are mounted onto the Botched Bikes dragonfly, which is an incredible product.
\n\nI used a combination of evazote foam, 400d EcoPak and ultragrid from challenge, along with some scraps I had lying around for the top stripe. Zipper are #10 molded from YKK. Stoked to test it out!

\n\n\nWanted to make something fun for the girls and my nephews, so I made four Halloween bags: Frankenstein, ghost, shadow, and pumpkin! All made from 420D Robic with ripstop and packcloth linings. Getting the gusset measurements right took some trial and error, but digitizing the pattern and following Ryan’s advice to sew with the gusset underneath and the panel on top helped a lot.
\n\nMy nephews were so pumped—their smiles made all the hard work worth it!

\n\n\nBuilt this for a recent trip to Japan to explore some ideas I had for future pack builds. Overall love the way it turned out. I need an extra inch in torso length for this to really fit me well so throwing this out there as a very lightly used option for someone who’s looking for a high volume pack built from Ultra. I also need to rebuild the removable hip belt so that would be able to be customized to your waste size and could include (or not) hip belt pockets.
\n\nDetails:
\n- Challenge Ultra 400X main body
\n- Challenge UltraGrid pockets
\n- two internal aluminum frame stays
\n- HDPE + foam pad insert
\n- removable Y-strap and roll top side compression straps (so you have three different ways to close the pack depending on how much you’re carrying and how you want to configure)
\n- weighs roughly 3.5lbs with frame stays and sleeve
\n- built to be used for packrafting and/or other high volume carry needs
Holler if you’re interested or have comments / questions. Thanks for viewing!

Hey, striving forward with patterns and big things. As requested, I have a new J strap pattern available. Its ambiguity resides in the ability to adapt to removable style straps. That’s up to you.
\n\nThe straps fit a phone or bars. Nothing new, just free!
\n\n\n\nLove the curiosity 😄
\n\nIf you have a desire for removable and adaptable straps, I’d love to hear your thought. Nothing is permanent. Progress is gradual.

\n\n\nThis Colombia bag that I bought last week feels nice but I wanted some internal organization for my flashlights mainly if I’m being honest.
\n\nI was going to just do the main compartment but my big complaint was the lack of organization in the front pocket so I took the divider panel completely off and made 2 copies from 210D venom Gridstop and then used some xpac scraps for the pockets themselves.

\n\n\nAfter realizing how massive the textbook AS35 is I wanted a smaller pack for shorter days of ski touring. I did a lot of altering of the gusset, front, and back panel dimensions and added side pockets and a big side access zipper. Also threw a front panel pocket on for quick access to knick knacks and opted for a roll top over a cinch. No top brain on this pack either in comparison to the AS35. Used mostly xpac/ecopac and nylon ripstop ottertex for the leopard print. Weighs in at 2lb 12 oz, stoked with the end product. Pray for snow!

This fanny pack it’s based on a pattern by [u/sugarshackforge](u/sugarshackforge) (thanks once again for your patterns, this is at least the third time I’m using one of yours), but I altered it so it can be used as a hip belt pocket, too.
\n\nMaterials:
\n• Ultra 200X
\n• 40D double ripstop nylon (liner)
\n• generic stretch mesh (inner pocket)
\n• 3D hex mesh
\n• first time using Gütermann Mara 70 (for those who read my other post today, lol)

\n\n\nI needed a bag to travel with my flight gear/ protect it when I got to work. The bags issued by pretty much any org/agency are crap. At worst it’s cheap nylon that uses batting as ‘protection’ at best it weighs 10lbs and uses gym mat as protection. They’re terrible.
\n\nHere’s my take on the classic Aviator Kit Bag. It’s designed to carry a flight helmet, flight suit, flight boots, an iPad, and some misc stuff for preflight and personal rescue items. It’s been a surprisingly tough nut to crack. I originally made a backpack, but the helmet is just too big and oddly shaped IMO to fit well into any sort of backpack you’d actually want to wear. Unless you just cram it at the bottom of something (which I’ve done and it does work). The boots were also kind of a pain. They take up a lot of space and don’t ‘fill out’ a bag very nicely. So I decided on this duffel’ish bag.
\n\nI’ll get to the bag itself in a second, the thing I’m most proud of is the sling. I wanted it to be ridiculously overbuilt but it came out awesome. It’s all metal hardware with quick release cams so when I’m sprinting through the airport to catch a 15min connection my company booked for me I can, with one hand cinch the bag tight to my body. And when I get to the gate and realize my flight left without me I can, with one hand loosen it from my heaving chest so I can breath again. It’s heavily based on 2-point rifle slings. Even has HK rifle clips to secure it to the bag’s D-rings.
\n\nFeatures wise, the bag is super simple. Two exterior pockets for a notepad, tickets, and a place to put the ’empty your pockets’ items going through security. One exterior flap pocket for an iPad mini or whatever else, it’s secured with a FidLock magnetic snap (first time using, but really like). The interior is slick with two Velcro fields. One for inserting a padded divider to keep the helmet section separate from your boots and other loose items, the other is for placards, pouches, etc. I ‘borrowed’ the GoRuck zipper flap idea to keep the zipper completely covered. Even Aquaguard zips get wet if left in the rain a while IME.
\n\nThat’s pretty much it. Simple bag to carry specific things to do a specific job. I love it. I put a lots of hours into this one.
\n\nMaterials list:
\n\n-Outer: 1000D Coated Cordura
\n-Liner: 420D Robic Ripstop Nylon
\n-Zipper: YKK #10 Aquaguard
\n-Webbing: MIL-A-A-55301, MIL-W-17337, MIL-W-4088 TYPE 2
\n-Padding: EVAZOTE 13mm (bottom/ strap padding), 10mm (outer sides), 6mm (divider), & 4mm (carry handle wrap)

\n\n\nMade a frame bag for my tandem bike out of some retired rope from the local climbing gym! First time making a bag for my bike and the rope turned out to be much harder to work with than expected because the bag is so small. Not perfect by any means, but works great for all my needs of holding my phone and wallet while out for a ride.

\n\nI've got a Therm-a-Rest pump sack I absolutely love. It's seam-taped and waterproof with a wide opening (that cinches) so it doubles as a pack liner. I also stuff my clothes in it for a body pillow. It weighs very little (less than a compactor bag) and is more durable than nylofoam.
\n\nHowever, I also backpack with my 4-year-old about 1/2 the time. We just got my kid a Nemo Tensor pad (upgrading her to adult stuff). And the pump sack sucks. It's tapered at the top, so it's utterly useless as anything else. I have to carry her gear, so every ounce counts!
\n\nI'm wondering if anyone has bought or can develop an adapter that would fit into the Therm-a-Rest pump sack (female) and then can be screwed into the threaded Nemo Tensor (male) so I can use the same pump sack and just have a little adapter. Also open to any ideas for how I could MYOG it from the parts I've already got.
\n\nSure, I could just blow up her pad. But I'm above 12k quite frequently, and she likes to use the pump sack to \"do it herself.\" So there's that.
\n\nI do not own a 3d printer, but I have access to one via a neighbor or I'm happy to support a cottage shop.
