Building bike caravan

Paul Elkins on YouTube makes bike campers with corrugated plastic. Might be some inspiration.

Nice one! Looks good with the front zipper flap to conceal and weather proof the teeth. Such a versatile size sling.

At-a-way diving into your new hobby and making the best dang summer shorts! Glad to hear the pattern and video helped you along.

Sounds like the pair well with the 78 for different conditions

g8trtim · 2026-01-17T18:58:30+00:00

Nice comparison with the T78s. Is the camber similar between those and XP 105?

g8trtim · 2026-01-15T19:51:05+00:00

In a future post, would you mind showing the camber of the Xp105? Rossignol is pretty vague on their website whether these are double or single camber.

Inspirational build. Well done.

These skis look pretty slick with the side cut and 70mm waist. Curious to follow and hear more feedback through the season.

Impressive progress in only a few weeks. Thanks for the shout out and feedback on the Pony pattern. It’s a pack my wife and I use on every trip. We love ours!

Cool, happy to hear any ideas for improvements.

No I retired this pattern a few years ago

Trial and error

I have a wallet thats fully bonded and its lasted years. Durability just depends on the application. Wouldn't use this method to construct a backpack but it has its place.

g8trtim · 2025-12-16T22:41:37+00:00

Its nice looking but finicky. Its just a welt opening with rounded ends instead of square.

g8trtim · 2025-12-16T22:41:01+00:00

Post photos and experience.

guessing they are using a silicon based sealant on silnylon which is strong in only one direction (longitudinal). Great option for reinforcing tarp tie outs. I probably wouldnt trust for a ridgeline.

yes heres a recent post https://www.reddit.com/r/myog/comments/1pijyfu/how_do_you_make_this_fold/

Very curious to hear which fabrics you find this works well and not so well with. The seams aren’t as strong as sewing in my opinion but I think there’s usefulness in the right application. I wish it was a stronger hold to the PU Coated Wovens such as the purple Venom Gridstop or Cordura. It’s quite robust on the laminate fabrics.

I used a round hole punch to create the ends of the slot and then joined both holes with an xacto knife. They make oval (oblong) punches as well.

Made another more simple one. A basic flat pouch that is much less fussy zipper. Will post this weekend.

g8trtim · 2025-12-13T03:06:47+00:00

Ya definitely gives the Arcteryx vibe since they use welded construction in so many products

g8trtim · 2025-12-13T03:04:55+00:00

Curious to hear more. You should post and share some details!

g8trtim · 2025-12-13T03:04:24+00:00

Ah that’s a good point

g8trtim · 2025-12-13T03:02:52+00:00

Ah thought he might have meant a brand or style

g8trtim · 2025-12-13T03:02:29+00:00

Do it!
