Right now I'm planning out my UQ built and I'm gravitating toward a similar design as this one by Gidggetzz: http://imgur.com/a/nwn64. In this build, the outer fabric is used to make the channels (doubled over twice), rather than sewing on grosgrain channels. This seems like an efficient design (fewer parts), but I wonder about the durability of it (I'm leaning toward 1.0oz HyperD for my outer shell).
Any have any experience with built-in vs grosgrain channels?
