So I pulled the trigger on some material and CS Apex 5.0 from ripstop last night and I'm going to make my own TQ, which scares the bajeebies outta me, but does give me something to do. I'm using these plans as a loose guideline: http://diygearsupply.com/wp-content/...ilt-lowres.jpg
I have a couple of construction questions:
1. I'm going to sew a foot box, I always liked that with my sleeping bag and don't really want to switch. Does anyone have any plans for how to do this? I've got an idea or two, but if someone who's done it before could chirp up I'd appreciate it. Especially how to bring the sides together and stitch those up...
2. I plan on using a 3/4 length UQ and know that means I'll need a sit pad in the end. Has anyone tried sewing a pocket on the outside of the footbox for the pad to go in? Just a simple, single layer of left over material tacked on and through the bottom of the footbox. I don't like the idea of putting the pad in the footbox, just trying to think somethings through.
Thanks!
