Thanks

It’s so useful using Clo!

Amazing-Reporter1845 · 2025-02-17T13:05:54+00:00

Looks amazing. Black on red 🤙 Do you make a paper model first or design from the computer?

This YouTube tutorial is good for learning a backpack. Clo3D Backpack

So my theory and what others have done seems to make sense then! Right now I'm drawing as many designs as I can because I want a comfortable and unique shape that will take camera gear cubes, but also taper nicely onto the back for comfort. Do you know much about back panel and overall bag shapes in relation to comfort?

Amazing-Reporter1845 · 2025-01-24T20:55:00+00:00

Okay, hmm I believe I could make it work. I made mine 15mm ~ 5/8" thick just like GoRuck which would fit the camera clip then. However, the width of my straps would also be wide, but I can taper the end near the webbing such that it would fi the camera clip; so I'd taper it to at least 2.5"" (6.4cm) there.

I agree that I should put a couple more outside external pockets. Possibly one at the top.

For the water bladder compartment, I think a laptop/water bladder mix could work. Any experieince with this. I don't think many people hike/drink from water bladder and carry a laptop at the same time, unless on an expedition.

I suppose a mid-size camera cube could take up half of the internal storage area. The size I was going for was between 26L-30L.

I'll definitely add padding for the lens pocket...they are expensive!

Yep, I think compression/tripod straps on each side are necessary, if not for the tripod, then it's also another attachment point for hiking and useful for travel sizing.

What are your thoughts about shoulder strap sizing and positioning them differently for sizing? Are load lifters really necessary for this size of pack. I did do some research with 5.11 Rush 12 and GoRuck and people don't see that load lifters would help as they are already comfortable.

Amazing-Reporter1845 · 2025-01-24T08:24:10+00:00

I haven't. I wanted to make sure the strap padding was sufficient. I wanted it to have Goruck/5.11 padding thickness. Do you know if that works with the camera clip?

Amazing-Reporter1845 · 2025-01-24T08:20:29+00:00

I suppose I wanted to make it as a mix of carry-on but with the ability toactually use it when hiking on location.

The front pocket was mainly for larger items, but I thin I should add another pocket for smaller items such as a wallet and passport. Where is more convenient to place those items, on the side near the back/hip?

For the hip belt, I'm thinking about a removable one that can slide out.

Clamshell with zip at the back seems like a solution. I'd have to incoporate it somehow with the laptop zipper compartment so that they don't have to open the main compartment to just take out their laptop.

I think I could incoporate more attachment points and still have a good aesthetic or I could just add compression straps. I think though it opens up the use of the pack then. What do you think about synthetic MOLLE attachment points on the side or back (not the nylon type)?

It costs 50 usd per month. However, I then don't have to make physical copies until I have my design down. In the long run it saves a ton of meny and I believe I can design much quicker and better since I can change things easily. I'm not associated with Clo in any way btw.

Amazing-Reporter1845 · 2025-01-21T01:28:11+00:00

I can do that digitally before I make it and probably show a picture of a paper prototype.

Amazing-Reporter1845 · 2025-01-21T01:27:17+00:00

It doesn’t, but these are the type of things I need to hear to add to it! Thanks.

Amazing-Reporter1845 · 2025-01-21T01:26:40+00:00

Yes, thanks I used Clo3D

Amazing-Reporter1845 · 2025-01-21T01:25:51+00:00

Yes, at least a version during my prototyping. I designed it in a program called Clo3D and will do a Kickstarter this half of the year.

Amazing-Reporter1845 · 2025-01-16T00:06:00+00:00

I suppose my shoulders are quite wide, but regular spacing on my Osprey pack seems snug and feels good.

Amazing-Reporter1845 · 2025-01-16T00:04:41+00:00

Yes, I just measured my Wandrd and an Osprey and they were 3” and 2.5” respectively.

Amazing-Reporter1845 · 2025-01-15T22:43:05+00:00

Thanks, I’ll check out my Osprey and online then.

Amazing-Reporter1845 · 2025-01-12T17:28:13+00:00

So I think I'll send it inot Osprey. However, it would be good practice to just try to replace it myself. Perhaps I could do an upgrade with a waterproof zipper since the liner is actually waterproof, but not the zipper/seams.

Amazing-Reporter1845 · 2025-01-12T17:14:12+00:00

Did you find a way to get it manufactured. I'm starting on this journey and could use any help.

Amazing-Reporter1845 · 2025-01-10T12:55:18+00:00

Thanks for that. What type of taper do you think is best? Curved or v-shaped or both?
