Hello, I’m looking for some recommendations on a plastic stiffener for a canvas and leather tool bag I’m making. I see Milwaukee has an open top tool bag with stiff sides. It has a plastic wall sandwiched with canvas fabric. The plastic is stiff yet can be sewn through. I imagine it is 1/8” or slightly less. I read somewhere about HDPE can be sewn through but there are many types of HDPE. Does anyone have experience with this? I’m going to call TAP plastics tomorrow and see if they know of a product.
I’ll be sewing this with my industrial walking foot machine with Tex138.
Thanks for any help!
