I have more off cuts of silnylon, pertex, ripstop nylon than you could shake a stick at. I therefore thought it was about time that I made something with them. So despite making UQs, TQs and tarps for a couple of years today was my first crack at some stuff sacks.

These ones are black silnylon with dyneema drawcords. The largest one I have made today is 9 grams. This is probably more to do with the cord lock!

This one contains my Marmot waterproof

The four I made this PM

They look cool, good stuff.

I like my coated pertex stuff sacks and they seem to be lasting quite well too.

Just found some of the uber light weight but strong spinnaker material.

Largest is sub 5g! Around 30cm x 20cm

Nice work, anything your looking to use them for particularly? You can never have to many stuff sacks

Just made one of the many 3d, i.e. to have a flat bottom.

Just made them because I hadn't done it before. New year, new challenge!

You hand sewing them or have you got a machine?

Sewn by machine! Does the stitching look that bad

 

[copper_head]

Not at all
They look really good actually. Think I might have to persuade my mother to 'lend' me her old Singer. I've so many projects, but so little skill, lol!
