Queipo37 Report post Posted November 29, 2022 Made this for my mother. I hope she will beat it up and really test it’s durability. She had been stealing my stepdads backpack for rockhounding outings so I made this for her for Christmas. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Frodo Report post Posted November 30, 2022 I think the bag is outstanding and a good job. I have mad a few packs and my Bud also makes packs I would like to give you a couple of ideas for your next pack. again nothing wrong with your back pac. I like it!! I have found that the flap top of your bag type will tend to leak in the morning when the dew melts and the contents get wet my Bud Gary cam up with a solution that allows the content to stay dry but adds space to the sq footage of the pack itself instead of the flap, make the tubular or square sharp of the pack longer then you use a draw string to close and roll the top of the bag closed then use 2 straps one on each side of the roll to secure roll top closed the loose ends of the straps bug me, so below the buckle make a pouch to slide the excess into This is not my bag, Gary made this it is a roll top as mentioned with double straps and end strap pouches the image is turned the correct way in my computer way up with the site Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
