Good job! Good skill!

[@VanishingCactusTrick]

Great video! I like how you showed yourself sewing the ridge line seams from start to finish - it was super helpful to see how you kept everything lined up

[@ResearchonSihr]

Thank you for the information

[@thegingerpowerranger]

Great video. Thanks for uploading

[@bornwildalaska5031]

Hey thanks!

[@iraa9935]

Where did you order the fabric?

[@tmotten]

Great vid. I missed the thread diameter and the needle size that you use on silnylon. Could you please let me know? You mentioned something about the thread but I couldn't quite make it out.

Hey man! Great video! Used it as the guide for making my first siltarp. What do you to to seam seal the ridgeline? Would love to see a video on making a pack cover!

[@bornwildalaska5031]

I use silnet by gear aid. It’s just your typical seam sealer you can find at most outdoor stores.

Have you ever thought about making your own bag for a Barneys pack frame? I've fallen asleep many nights in a tent thinking about what I would do diffrently if I ever put my own together. I am sure it would be quite the undertaking!

[@bornwildalaska5031]

I have had the same thoughts while waiting out weather. I want to make my own hunting pack and when I get to that point I'll feature the whole project on here!

[@mikealwill7013]

Silnylon or silpoly? I just noticed you print out silpoly and say it several times, but the title in KZbin uses Silnylon.

Good vid, but you made 2 mistakes. The french flat felled seam should enclose the heam, not having it poke out as yours did. 2nd a rollrd heam all round, not just folded over will make it stronger and more hard wearing
