Modified my full length Neoair today. Final “inflated” length is 32″. Click HERE for all you need to know about this project…enjoy!
**This is actually fairly easy to do, so if you want a shorter pad go ahead and give it a go. That said, a few key points to look out for is:
1) The top and bottom fabric seem to be slightly different widths (by just a tad) so it is important to follow the directions and start the bond in the center. Then work the corners down. I found this to be easier then starting from the corners and working the creases down in the center.
2)Keep in mind that when you cut the pad, you must leave sufficient space from the baffle bond line in order to leave yourself enough material to make another bond. If you muff that part up, you will have to cut to the next baffle which could be a few inches and therefore your pad will be a few inches shorter
3)I cut my uninflated pad to about 36″ and it measured 32″ when inflated…give yourself about 4 inches extra for inflation.
4)I’m not responsible for your leaky pad. ;)
