Dyneema G4

Hey, that looks nice. Congratulations on a job well done. I have some fabric on order for my first attempt at a pack. Now I really can't wait. Very cool.

where is the 3d mesh from?

The 3d mesh is from thru-hiker. I bought two feet of it and still have plenty of it to use on some other projects.

Congrats on a job well done. That is one nice looking pack. The Dyneema is certianly not the lightest pack material, but it is my favorite. It holds up like none other. And still your pack coming in just over a pound is fantastic.

Thanks for sharing.

Very professional looking for a first attempt at a pack (and sewing?!)

BTW, where'd you happen to source that Dyneema cross-rip?

Wow ! VERY impressive,I really like it.

Thanks for all the kind words everybody. All of this started a few weeks ago when I made a few stuff sacks. That was all it took, and now I have a list of projects to get done. This was the first time I had sewn anything except for the stuff sacks a few weeks ago. The machine is an old Singer Merritt 2404. Overall, I probably could have gone back and cleaned up a couple of the stitches. I'm not to concerned with it though. I will take it out here in the next few weeks to give it a test run, and report back. The Dyneema Gridstop and 3d mesh came from thru-hiker, and the rest of it was a kit without fabric from Quest.

Also with the shoulder straps and hip belt wings, instead of doing the openings in both, I just used some ccf and sealed them up. They are very comfortable too. I do want to go back and possibly add a y strap going over the top, and maybe add some sort of sternum strap.
