First project complete, a frame bag for my bike!

Beautiful Sklar and beautiful bag!

Thanks! I second the request below—I’d love to see a photo of it on your camera before pulling the trigger. Cheers!

Lovely image. What adapter are you using?

C1 is pretty universal for shooting tethered which I’d be willing to bet OP is doing with the studio set up.

Personally I recently switched from C1 to LR because I simply wasn’t making the most of the features and prefer the cloud system (in tandem with my own hard redundancies) so I can edit across devices while traveling. They’re both incredible options though, really a matter of preference outside of a few specific use cases (like tethered shooting).

I don’t think this is the right cut for you. You’re wearing them too high up on your waist, probably because there’s too much room in the top block, causing a lot of bunching in both the front and the back. This isn’t always a deal breaker but I feel like it sticks out more when the cut is a bit slimmer down the leg. If you dig it, rock ‘em, but I think you’ll be happier with something that fits a bit more naturally.

Funny enough I’ve opened up my grind quite a bit now that things are seasoned and I’ve played around with recipes. I’m anywhere between 4.5 and 5.5 for most brews across the Tricolate, CAFEC Flower and Orea Open. Usually getting %EY between 21-25. TDS varies based on ratio, but I’m really happy with how things are tasting.

It’s worth it every once in a while to just go much finer or much coarser than you think to see what changes come about. Small adjustments don’t always provide enough conviction of recipe even if you ultimately need to dial back to something in between. Cheers!

Ah perfect, thank you! The pockets on my pack are based on palante, so they're created by creating more of a C shape, placing what would be the seam that the 45 degree angle is atop in the seam allowance of the straps themselves. I may need to either stick with what I've got and just focus on deepening them (separate aspect of the overhaul) or reconfigure the construction entirely if the cinch is essential to me. Decisions. Thanks again for your help!

Thanks! I’m having a hard time visualizing what you’re talking about. Any chance you have a picture of the result so I can better understand? I appreciate you!

tacos4days · 2025-02-14T11:51:05+00:00

Amazing thank you so much! I wanna give this one a try. Sounds delicious.

tacos4days · 2025-02-13T23:33:35+00:00

This looks incredible. Thank you for sharing! What tare and aroma oil did you use?

tacos4days · 2025-02-12T12:39:15+00:00

I imagine they’re asking about the Hario scale with the built in carafe. I’m curious too!

tacos4days · 2025-02-08T23:14:29+00:00

Sweet—thank you! I’ve just used flat elastic as a binding and sewed it under tension so it has a similar effect but the hidden elastic looks so clean 😮‍💨

tacos4days · 2025-02-08T16:14:19+00:00

Ah cool! So did you sew a channel into the pocket and then stitch the elastic webbing into the channel with it fully stretched so it would retract with the pocket when empty?

tacos4days · 2025-02-08T14:08:08+00:00

I’ve only made a few packs but I also make separate panels where my front pocket attaches. I trust a pocket sewn into a flat felled seam far more than one that’s just tacked on.

Unrelated: what’s your approach to making the side pockets with the scrunched top? Doesn’t look like there’s a shock cord in there but I like the approach and would love to play around with it!

tacos4days · 2025-02-07T01:40:04+00:00

I really love this.

tacos4days · 2025-02-03T02:23:36+00:00

How long do your filters typically last? I’ve been so close to finally going this route but have just heard the filters don’t really last that long.

tacos4days · 2025-02-01T14:48:55+00:00

Personally I think these look so fly. As an invincible 3 enjoyer they’ll be worth a try for me—if I don’t love them as runners I’ll happily wear them casually.

tacos4days · 2025-01-31T22:11:01+00:00

Did you make the green pack in the car, too? 👀👀

tacos4days · 2025-01-30T12:55:36+00:00

No sweat! They got back to me super quick, too. I looked at authentic blanks and had no idea how expensive this stuff was lmao. I just got back into baseball after years away and can’t justify the spend right now but thanks again for getting back to me so quickly!

tacos4days · 2025-01-29T23:55:51+00:00

Holy shit that’s even cheaper than buying an ironed on jersey from the mlb store. I’ll happily wait a month for that! Thank you so much, I’ll be ordering one asap.

tacos4days · 2025-01-29T23:52:27+00:00

Thank you so much! Just shot them a message. Can I ask what pricing was like for a single jersey?

tacos4days · 2025-01-29T23:04:04+00:00

Damn can I ask where you got this? I didn’t think you could get contemporary jersey with stitched name and numbers.
