Looking good, Lepmeister. What's making the pack keep its shape? An internal frame or the way it has been packed?

Cheers mate, just the way it's been packed and with the compression pulls on the side I have been able had it hold its shape even with it not very full.. In fact it's only at 3/4 capasity in the vid/pics.

Looks great. How much fabric did it take?

Very nice.

Cheers guys, I had the canvas already, left overs from the baker tent I made so I'm not 100% sure on the total I used but I's say a couple of meters square

Thanks Lepmeister. I like the black straps too, it looks well.
Another project for the to-do list!

I'm thinking of doing something similar, what type of canvas did you use for your pack and tent?

Good job there mate ..
