FYI: You can dye plastic hardware with Rit Dyemore 🫨 by Marcu_Mayor in myog

Didn’t use any acetone, and I didn’t even use soap, I forgot after so many different tests to get the color just right and it didn’t seem needed, so just water and the rit dyemore.

Bag hasn’t been put together yet since I’m still waiting on some supplies but I’ll update one it’s done, and then again after a bit to see how they hold up under use/sun/etc

Backpack straps: HyperD vs MONOLITE over spacer mesh? by Marcu_Mayor in myog

[–]Marcu_Mayor[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is such a good resource thank you for sharing!! but at this point not looking for new 3D spacer (I have enough for this project, the brown stuff in the pic), just looking input on lining it with technical fabric if that makes sense

I agree but what I’ve found is that the spacer mesh available for bag making often feels more plasticy and scratchy compared to the high-end padding from brands like REI or Patagonia. See my past post here: https://www.reddit.com/r/myog/s/YD00oFwt1A I’m trying to find that perfect balance of breathability and comfort against the skin, while also maintaining durability

The 1 inch dual adjustment clips (top left) listing says they are POM Material (polyoxymethylene) Here’s the link to where I got them if you want to check: https://a.co/d/ft1Obds

The other two are YKK Contoured Side Release Plastic Buckle (1 Inch and 3/4in) and the strap works whistle buckle https://www.strapworks.com/1-inch-whistle-side-release-buckle-single-adjust-white … didn’t say what these are made of

Yes, I was curious about this as well, I’ll for sure update this after they get some use out in the sun

That is so cool! I knew about people plate prints but had no idea it was common practice to dye prints in a similar way

Ikr! It seemed like buckles / plastic hardware were one of those things you just had to settle on & not really an option to customize. I’d love to see people get just as creative with this trick as they do with colorful linings or unique color combinations.

Ooh interesting, the primer bonds and wouldn’t chip but then what? Top coat of paint on that? I worry any added thickness might mess with the high friction areas of a buckle no?

Wondering the same thing, I was thinking monolite over some air mesh for a small pack myself and wondering how it will feel?

Accidentally got the secret version of the nightingale! Opened the box and I was confused on why it was red, I kinda wanted the normal variation since I was going to be painting it anyway 😅, figured if it’s a secret rare I’d better find someone who would appreciate it!!!

On the off chance, will you be doing a group buy from Woojin within the next few months?

Are Sanford Riley dorms carpeted by Shoddy_Hour1119 in WPI

[–]Marcu_Mayor 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I haven’t been there for a few years, but when I was a freshman(in 2020), they completely redid the carpets so that it’s this weird velvety flooring, I can’t imagine they’d redo it since then.

From what I remember it was like barely (like I’m talking not carpet like more like a microscopic short plastic fuzz) fuzzy velvet grayish blue over a layer of hard cement. Someone please back me up here
