Thank you for posting this!

[@RipstopbytheRoll]

No problem! Hope it helps and thanks for watching!

[@SaritaGardner]

What type and size thread is recommended? What size needle? Thx

[@jjmcwill2007]

Awesome!

[@kylebaker371]

Thanks Jeff! Enjoy :)

[@nikolasalmodovar6420]

Thanks for the video. I would like to also see how to finish a drawcord channel :)

I've never sewn with a machine before and just finished the small stuff sack. It took quite a while getting the machine set up, thread and needles right, but I'm a sewing rookie. Gutterman 100% polyester sew all thread and Schmetz 100/16 needles in the end worked best with a borrowed Brother CE4000. The small sack is imperfect but it works well. The small stuff sack I made weighs .18oz on my scale replacing .88oz of plastic bags. Thanks for putting the kit together and making the video! On to the medium stuff sack. Edit I'm also shocked at how much stuff fits in the small stuff sack. Bic mini, sawyer mini, victorinox classic sd, toilet paper 14g, ear plugs, 3 alcohol wipes, picaradin wipes, .5 oz bar soap, flosser, toothpaste 1oz, toothbrush, small body glide, headlamp and long handle spoon diagonally and more would probably fit.

No problem Jim! Glad to hear the build worked out :)

[@michaelrogers6002]

How did you create/finish the exit holes for the cord?

[@bendrixbailey1430]

Is there a cure period for the single sided tape? Should I wait for a period of time prior to turning the bag inside out? AND, unrelated to this project, is there a cure for the double sided tape you sell? I used some to bind two pieces of Dyneema together and let it sit for 10 hours, but when I pulled shear on the two pieces it separated at the tape, which was also still a bit sticky. Thanks in advance for the answers...

[@hipgroove68]

Boom!!

[@kylebaker371]

Yup. Thanks Rich!

[@Anton-zb9dc]

Hi, could dyneema be laminated to carbon with epoxy?

[@ReptarHikes]

Do you guys offer any kits for a roll top bag?

[@burgoo64]

What thread do u suggest??

[@skylargrabner6771]

Planning on sewing a tarp for my hammock with this material. Is there a certain amount of time I need to let the tape cure for?

[@RipstopbytheRoll]

We'd recommend letting it cure for about 24 hours at room temperature.

[@cerenademe9433]

What are the specs for the draw cord and cord lock that was included in the kit (and when will this kit be back in stock again)?

[@RipstopbytheRoll]

Hello Cerenade! Here are the links for the two components you asked about: 1) Mini Cord Lock ripstopbytheroll.com/products/mini-cordlock?variant=958747517 2) 1.5 mm Black Drawcord ripstopbytheroll.com/products/1-5-mm-mini-cord?variant=1041261937 I don't know when these will be in stock again. Many of the lightweight DCF's are in a shortage right now.

[@cerenademe9433]

@@RipstopbytheRoll Thank you. I did set up an email notification for when they're in stock again. :)

[@RipstopbytheRoll]

@@cerenademe9433 Awesome! If you wanted something sooner, you could pick up our $10 DIY Kit. That has all of the same components and more! ripstopbytheroll.com/products/the-10-diy-box?variant=637279205

What size thread did you use?

[@edisonpayton7950]

You prolly dont give a shit but if you are bored like me during the covid times then you can stream pretty much all the latest movies on Instaflixxer. Have been streaming with my girlfriend for the last few weeks xD

[@edwinleroy8002]

@Edison Payton Yup, been watching on Instaflixxer for since december myself :)

[@user-lo4uq4iu5k]

I don't understand the roll hem for the drawcord. And I don't see any links or information about how to do it. Please help.

[@RipstopbytheRoll]

Hey! Thanks for watching. We go over how to do a rolled hem in more detail in the DIY Stuff Sack Video. Check this out and see if it helps give more clarity to the step. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mHKvY2OEj9yLZ6c

[@woodsy6904]

Do you know the needle size or type? I’m getting snags with this fabric and my tension settings aren’t helping. Thanks!

[@RipstopbytheRoll]

We recommend using a Shmetz Microtex Sharp size 12-14. Also, if you already haven't, think about going over your machine to make sure the parts are in good order and there's no dust or debris in the channels. Hope this helps!

[@woodsy6904]

@@RipstopbytheRoll Thanks for the update. I went ahead and made a bag using your fabric. Video uploading soon. Hopefully it inspires people to buy your fabric and materials.
