And the dud who commented before me…. That isn’t so. The only thing that separates this bag from girly frilly as you call it is the pattern of material. A bag is a bag is a bag.
Dude your channel is so underrated! So glad I found it. Vast majority of sewing tutorials and channels on youtube are for girly, frilly bits and bobs. Nothing wrong with that, but sometimes I appreciate the thought behind constructing something purely practical and durable! I love the subdued colours and simplicity too. Your work is top notch and looks real professional! Keep it up brother!!!
Thx Mate that you love my work so damn much😎🤜🤛 this saturday comes a new Tutorial online about binding curves and how to modify your Setup. Nothing special but it will make life easier! Stay tuned! Cheers and much Love🤘😎
love your work, i borrowed my girlfriends sewing machine to modify a rifle sling, and after finding your channel ive spent countless hours more than here making pouches and various things! Thank you!
Great video. No long winded commentary on inane crap on why you made something!! Music and visuals , and measurements and techniques. That says it all!! Thank you.
Great and simple video with easy background music. Keeping it simple. Beautiful work! I gain appreciation for quality goods when I see the manufacturing process like you’ve presented. Thanks for sharing!
This video was absolutely amazing. It was very inspirational. I'm planning on designing a tactical bag for amateur radio. Glad I found your channel. New sub!
Servus aus Vorarlberg 😄🇦🇹 Cool ein neues Video!😁 Ja ich bin in der Zwischenzeit dazu gekommen 😅 Hallo!🤗 Ich finde die Videos haben Style und sind echt top gemacht. ☺️ LG Leopod 🤗 Schön das du Weider da bist!☺️👍
Hallo Leopold und schöne Grüße gehen gen Voralberg🤜🤛😎 und ja, es hat eine Weile gedauert bis zum nächsten Video, da 2020 gerade ordentlich Breitseite verteilt aber auch für mich gehts weiter. Komme was wolle und auch die nächsten Videos sind schon wieder geplant! Freut mich dass du mit dabei bist. Cheers und Gruß, Steffen
Awesome work. I never considered notching the corners like that. Seems a lot easier to calculate than figuring out how much fabric it will take to round the corner.
What are you using to calculate the zipper and bottom panels based on the side panels? I tried adjusting to a different size and ended up with excess fabric and my notches didn’t line up. Any help is much appreciated. Love the pouch design
@@ezraschofield5122 thx that you like my Work. It is hard to explain only by words. I gonna make a Video in the future about that! The only thing that I can tell is that the cutting depth of the notches must be the same like your seam allowance. The rest is simple math. I will keep you posted😎🤜🤛
Such an awesome channel! I do upholstery for a living and would love to play with gear but I keep my machines set up to run 138 thread. My only critique is the starts and stops when sewing the sides on the front and back of the bag. Keep going all the way around the bag, no need to stop 😉
Love your stuff! This is the most complex way l've ever seen...l don't know how many of my brain cells have died just watching! l've seen the same with a lining...you are not going to impress the girls without a lining!
Thx that you love my work🤘😎 well.... I don't want to impress the girls... This is not (only) sewing for Girls 🙈 otherwise I would have chosen a plushy pink fabric with flowers...😅 Cheers Mate🤘😎
First bag I ever made, and g'damn did you make it easy! But that was following EXACTLY what you did. Any planned tutorials for us noobs where we could figure out how to dimension our own bags or have hints/tricks? IE: If I wanted a 20x4x10mm bag. I'm a little thrown off a bit on how to make the proper material cuts along with where to make the notches. I think once I figure that out then I'll be off the races!
Hallo, habe eben erst den Kanal gefunden. Schade, dass RU-vid die gesuchten Begriffe irgendwie oftmals nicht auf alle Videos übertragen kann und es teilweise bis zu 2-3 Jahre dauert, bis man wirklich das findet, was man sucht. Mein Freund möchte schon lange, dass ich solche Dinge wie die Ifak Kit Tasche und zb. Taschen für seinem Tasmanian Tiger Rucksack wie die edc pouch etc. nähe. Toll, dass du so tolle Sachen selber machst und dann auch noch die Anleitung auf RU-vid zeigst.
Das freut mich zu hören! Wenn du die passenden Materialien und weitere Infos suchst, dann schau auch gern bei uns bei Tacticaltrim vorbei 🤘😎 Gruß und Danke für die lieben Worte
@@AdventureGearProjects danke für die Info, das habe ich schon in der Infobox gefunden. Leider habe ich nur eine einfache Industrienähmaschine. Deine Tutorials sind auf jeden Fall klasse!
Thanks for liking the pouch I made from your video!! Can I ask a question about the measurements? I would love to make another one but a bit smaller. How do I calculate the lenght of the sides to fit the front/back panel? Your pattern the panels are 26x14 = 40 and the sides are 38. So 2cm difference. Does that 2cm stay the same when choosing a smaller size? Sorry if I'm making no sense, I am just very eager to learn. Thanks so much!!!
Makes you think a little more when you see a pouch that is $5 and one thats 100. I also dont know how they could make them as cheap as they do on places like temu, and honestly the quality is pretty good for the price
@@AdventureGearProjectsI think you misunderstood what I meant. I meant it's crazy how much work goes into this, and when u can get one for like $4 it's crazy to think someone put in that much work for that little
Brilliant video mate, you got some skill there, cracking Pro job there, out of interest is it a supa dupa sewing machine? Well done 👍 off to check out your other videos
I bought some Guterman upholstery thread from my local fabric store because they didn't carry the V-92 thread I was looking for and I was surprised at how strong it is. I tried to break the thread with my hands and it has so strong it cut into my skin before it would break.
@@AdventureGearProjects I’m still learning about my sewing machines, great to find well made videos that aren’t confusing. Ich habe vier Jahre in Deutschland gelebt.
Ich nähe grad ein Spiritus Mikro Fight Chest Rig in Muca Tropic nach. Bisschen abgeändert und auf Amateur Niveau aber es hält und kommt an den PC bzw ist zum Wandern gedacht für Flaschen und Co. Deine Sachen sehen aus wie aus der Industriefertigung :D
nice work. and nice tutorial. thanks I dont use tape for the zipper, I sew a fist time at the place of the tape then I ford the fabric like you and sew a second line like you. may be your tape is less expensive than thread ?! :D
Thanks that u like my Work! That motivates me🤜🤛 the Wondertape is not cheap but safes me time and helps to work very clean. After removing it you only have one stitched line and that is what I prefer. But I think using your method or my method is just a question of Taste🤘😎 cheers, Steffen
Thanks for the helpful video, lovely work! I appreciated the close up shots of the stitching. I would also like to try some projects with 1000D Cordura, but I only have size 50 Gutermann thread - do you think that would work ok? Also, if one wanted to make this more water-proof, what method would you recommend to seal the seams for this fabric? Is it ok to just cut the Cordura, or do you need to use a hot knife (or lighter) to seal the cut edges and prevent fraying?
Hi, Gütermann 50 should bei ok even if I would prefer a thicker thread like Tera 40. But I often use Coats Duet 50, too. Making seams waterproof is the kings question always. I would recommend using McNett's Seam Sure to seal your Seams and to make them waterproof. Thx that u like my Work. Cheers, Steffen😎🤜🤛
I've seen some pouches made with seam binding on the inside. Is there a reason you choose to leave inside seams unbound? I'm still trying to understand why you cut one side of the seam and leave the the other uncut on corners. Thank you for a great video!
Thx that you love the Video. I left the binding away to keep it simple for the rookies. And I made the cuts to bend the material better alongside the 90° corners. Cheers🤘😎
A good measure is to hot seal/melt the edges either by cutting with a hot edge or running a flame along it. Otherwise you are going to have a fuzzy buddies in your zipper after a few years. Nice tutorial and editing!
Fantastic tutorial, I am so excited to try these methods out! Can you tell me what marking pen you use please? I'm having trouble finding something similar.
Just found your channel and love it! How did you calculate where to make the cuts for the corners? I'm trying to scale and change the measurements to fit some specific items and want to use the notching technique you used here. Thanks!
Neeeat! i'm definitely getting my hands on this project. I have a home sewing machine, do you think it would work with such thick fabric? do you recommend getting a heavy dutty machine like yours? thanks a lot! the video is so inspiring.
If possible, I would always recommend getting a Industrial sewing machine. But old household machines mostly also can handle 1-2 layers of 500D or 1000D Cordura. Just try it out, then you gonna know.
@@AdventureGearProjects thanks i’m gonna give it a go. just curious where do you get your fabrics and hardware ? i’m not sure what kind of fabric and hardware to search for when making tacticle gear
Thank you for your great "instructibles" ... Can I have a sewing machine recommendation for making DIY sling bags, backpacks, like this? Will a Mini Portable SINGER M1005 sufficient?
You are welcome! And love to hear that you like my work! I would recommend a Singer Heavy Duty Machine or a real Industrial Sewing Machine! Don't get yourself a "Toy", that won't make you happy! Save some Money and get a good Machine🤘😎
I like how the zipper pulls just magically appear. If this was so obvious on how to attach I wouldn’t need to e Watch this video at all. Sometimes I wonder about the people who take the time to post how to’s but leave out information?
May I ask. Just to check if I am thinking correct as a beginner sewer😅. If I want to make this one with a 35cm zipper. Do I than cut short the panels 3cm in length? And if so, do I also take 3cm off in whith? Plus than 1.5cm off at each marking of 7 and 31cm? So those as 5.5cm and 29.5 cm. 😊
Excellent stuff. Inspired me to make loads of stuff. What type of zipper did you use? I see pictures of open ended and closed ended zippers but im not sure which one you used.
I am using YKK 8RCF endless Zippers with open ends. I usually seal them off with my Gas Burner or I bias bind them when making molle Pouches. Thx that u like my work 🤘😎 cheers
awesome video. I made this, very helpful. Question - how are you able to sew over the zipper so effortlessly? I've broken a few needles trying to do this. Is it needle selection?
I use high quality needles and my machine can handle sewing Zippers very well. No broken Needle yet so far after sewing hundreds of zippers. And the three way Transport contributes to not breaking the needle....😎cheers
I’m looking to buy a machine and was considering the Juki 8700H. Do you think this machine would suffice for this type of work even though it’s not a walking foot machine?
The Juki 8700 is a speed sewing machine. I would recommend a Walking Foot Machine because I just prefer the tripple transportation system for sewing Cordura! Cheers, Steffen
I make a number of different bags from 1000D Cordura, with seams that have up to three layers of fabric, a #10 coil zipper and two layers of 17333 webbing in them. I sew them on a Yamata 8500 straight stitch machine (similar to Juki 8700) with no problems. I also own a Juki 241 and Juki 1181n, but do 90% of my assembly work on the straight stitch machine. All of my machines were previously owned, so I bought them at good prices and got them in top shape on my own. That keeps costs down.
@@AdventureGearProjects thank you very much for your response. Do you recommend the Typical GC6-7D you use or would you recommend another machine? If your Typical wasn’t available, what other machine would you recommend?
@@hugoender you are welcome. I didn't use any other machine before. I could say that people like to use Pfaff, Consew, Dürkopp-Adler or Singer Machines. If you haven't allready then take a look inside our Group "The Walking Foot". But if available then I could totally recommend my TYPICAL GC6-7D 🤘😎.
What is the formula you are using to calculate the bottom and zipper panels I made one this size and am trying to upsize the pattern, I calculated the edge as 800(260*2+140*2) but the 380* 2 is less Thanks
I gonna put up a Tutorial on that this year! I am busy as hell with all my customers work, so please wait for it. Cheers and thx that you like my video!🤘😎
For anyone else wondering about this like i did, you need to take seam allowance into account for both side panels AND edge panels. So side panels are shortened 10mm top and bottom and 10mm left and right, so it's 240*2 + 120*2 = 720. Edge panels/zipper are also shortened 10mm at both ends for seam allowance where they are joined. So 360*2 = 720.
