Hi,
I am searching for some MYOG backpack drawings. I searched various forums including this one, but could not find except http://www.backpacking.net/makegear.html . Does anybody has more designs? I am mainly looking for drawings with the dimensions.:-Anand

I think the LAB pack found on the site you mentioned is worth a try if you want plans in your hand.
I don't use any plans and just go off the dimensions above. I add things like mesh pockets and compression lace loops.
If you are making a pack for the first time the G4 or LAB directions can help a lot, but make it to the size you want.

Actual pattern and kit for one of those (the G4) available at Quest Outfitters
Aug 19, 2008 at 12:00 pm #1447698Thanks for the pointers. Are there any additional pictures of LAB packs available?
How can I get the shape similar to the one mentioned at http://www.ospreypacks.com/Packs/AtmosSeriesMens/ . I had seen this pack & fits perfectly. The frame has special shape. Does the only frame give the shape to this particular pack or the contours of the bag plays the role too?
Say if I have to give similar shape to G4 or LAB pack, what do I need to modify?I tried to cut some cotton cloth pieces as shown for osprey pack. How to sew the curves? When I tried to join them, some folds were appearing.
Thanks & Regards
