I've never subbed to a channel with this low amount of subscribers before! For years I've been frustrated from being able to find the "perfect" gear for the job I need it to do, and here you are showing the world how to make whatever they want, while making professional quality gear! I can't wait to watch your next video in this series, and now I NEED to buy a sewing machine. You're Singer vs Janome video was awesome too, btw! I can't wait to get started!

[@Staypositive1206]

So where's that final vid?!

[@BagBuff]

HAHA! Good question. Lost interest, or something.

[@DEVB0T]

I loved watching all 3 of these vids, about to embark on making a (way less awesome haha) framebag, and even though ep. 4 is missing I found these SO valuable. Thanks!!I've subscribed just in case you get to making videos again. :) Very much enjoy your vibe. Chur!

Hi Steve - in your second episode you use an industrial binding sewing machine to sew the bag together. I've found this series great for help, ideas and inspiration but I'm afraid that that's where you lost me in terms of equipment accessibility. What would you recommend for someone who only had access to a home sewing machine in terms of making durable, water-resistant seams? Perhaps you could make another video going through that. Outside of this, your channel is excellent. I can't wait to see you blow up in numbers, your video quality deserves it. Thanks.

hello! Did he ever answer this question, as I was about to type in the same thing. I don't have an automated binder and really don't want to have to hand-bind the seams. Also, is there an episode 4???

[@briandelacruz3631]

This channel is so valuable. Love you relaxed down to earth style of creating content and videos. You channel deserve way more subscribers and like. I would subscribe like 5x times if I could 👍🏻

Smile... Hope you come back soon.... Don't let troubles get you down and keep you there.

Knowing this is probably difficult, what about a zipper that curves from vertical to horizontal to allow the side to open like a door and put the tool pockets on the door, possibly on a removable tool pallet. I remember from fixing bikes on the side of the road, I'm always digging around for that one last tool or part ... if they were all organized in one place everybody's life would be improved. Keep up the good work.

How does it ride?!? Lol

New subscriber and beginner here, this channel sounds exactly why I want to learn to sew; backpacks and outdoor/bike gear. I just watched your heavy duty sewing machine comparison and I would like a heavy duty sewing machine. With a budget of around $200, I was thinking about going with the 4452, although I'm kind of worried about quality now, especially if I plan on doing heavy everyday use and maybe selling things at the local farmers market, etc. Do you have a better recommendation for my budget or is this as good as it's going to get? I'm not sure if the 4452 is worth the extra cost or more heavy duty, I'll have to look into a comparison of the models.

[@stonesourification]

What happened with the follow up video? Looking foward to know how it went :)

[@BagBuff]

Haha. I couldn’t find the time to finish it 😅

[@neilburrows6670]

The music is so distracting from what is amazing content.

[@BagBuff]

Noted! Thanks for the feedback!

[@Stitchedbynance]

Hello, I am looking for someone to take a bag pattern from paper to digital. Do you still do this?

[@BagBuff]

unfortunately I do not

[@Jp4t]

Hello I would like to make leather jackets, which kind of sewing machine would I need to do that?

[@Thekidfromcalifornia2.0]

Keep up the work!

[@TaborKelly]

Did you finish this bag? This series is amazing.

[@BagBuff]

I wish I did haha. I’m hoping to do more series like this. Maybe I’ll continue it (two years later 😅)

[@chocolatemonk]

I see that the vid is a year old but hope you are well and still using if not making gear

[@jutganex]

Hey man, can you make a video on threads you use on your projects?

[@homegamerengineer3747]

Can we get an update on this project? Awesome videos, hopefully we get to see some more! Thanks for sharing!

[@BagBuff]

I bailed hard haha. Haven’t touched the project, unfortunately. Maybe next year! 😬

[@homegamerengineer3747]

@@BagBuff LOL... I know the feeling. I have a garage full of half started projects. My wife jokes that I collect hobbies. Well thanks for sharing what you did! Awesome stuff 😎
