Excuse me Sir Ultra and DCF which one is better? Some people said Ultra was better than DCF, some people said the otherwise. And one of my friend said that backpack made from Ultra fabric was not good in tropical country (Indonesia) because his bag already fell apart from 4 hiking trip. I don't want to lose my investment gear so I need your Help who expert on this fabric. Sorry for my broken English.
I absolutely love the new intro! I appreciate this podcast a ton!
Heck yeah! The notebook in the thumbnail makes me feel like I am at home. <3
Aw we love that and we love a good project notebook!
I live in Oregon and both mosquitoes and rain/snow are issues . Any chance of buying the mosquito fabric ?
I'm not sure if that is a fabric that is for sale, seems like it was in testing at the university.
I love ripstop dresses - gonna make one and post the results.
Awesome! Please tag us on social media in your creation!
For science! 🧪 🧑🔬
Would it be dumb to make coveralls out of this?
It would be very expensive and very hot.
I should not make a dress with this lol. Or, maybe I should 🤔
You should do a testing video between common fabrics like cordura 500d, 1000d, 1680d, Ultra 400 800, Xpac Vx42, etc. Just simple abrasion test, for normal people backpack use
Thanks for the suggestion, it's definitely a good idea for a future video!
Mera ko mall chaya
What the diffrent betwen Xpac fabric?
It depends on which fabric you are comparing. X-Pac is made by Dimension Polyant and ECOPAK is made by Challenge Sailcloth.
The LearnMYOG patterns are 100x better than the buff bag ones instructions wise!!
LearnMYOG has great instructions! He did a great job with his kits.
I love your company and the fact that you sell kits. I wish the video showed more about orienting the zippers with how they will eventually end up, to avoid having to rip the seams out and start again. Like, this is the outside, this is the inside, we are gonna sew here and then it’ll be like X when we turn it this way etc so people can avoid my mistakes. I’m not a total newb but have not made many bags nor installed many zippers.
Thanks for your feedback, that's a great suggestion, we'll try to incorporate that for the next video!
Hi Ripstop tean, a very nice podcast thank you very much for giving us more details. It would be nice if in future you could show together with Challange Sailcloth how you would tape critical, heavily used seams, e.g. on the shoulder strap of a rucksack or similar, and how to use the seam taping best. What kind of seam allowance you use and what width of ultra tape is best. A kind of guide where you show us users the best way to handle their ultra fabric :) Many thanks, Patrick
I believe we touched on that in the podcast but we didn't do any demonstrations. Thanks for the suggestion and perhaps we can make a video tutoial about this.
hi, wanted to ask. but the fabric does show crinkle abit. is there any way to iron it out? new to this fabric and wanted to check, thank you. 😄
I would not suggest ironing the wrinkles out as it could affect the integrity of the fabric.
@@RipstopbytheRoll yup, i figured as much. in that case, what would you recommend to get out the wrinkles?
@@sana-mj2mh buy new material, haha
For long strait cuts a keen cutter with the rotary cutter attachment is ideal they come in different size widths. The orange fiskars thread snips I bought from your website have been really nice also, fiskars is a good product.
We're glad to hear it! A rotary cutter is great to have around!
Tip on PAPER PATTERNS: Store them folded. When it’s time to bring them out, unfold them and spend a few seconds using a household iron to flatten the folds.
That is a great tip for storage!
Hey! I just finished listening and really enjoyed this episode! I actually just rearranged my sewing space and I definitely resonate with wanting more table space. Until then the living room floor will have to do. I also found the thought of having multiple snips and scissors at different stations to be useful which got me wanting to make something of a "sewers tool belt" to avoid having to buy multiples. 😂
A sewers tool belt is a fantastic idea! Let us know how it turns out.
Thread and needle recommendation please? Thanks!
A size 10/12 Needle and Gutermann Mara 70 will work well!
I can fully agree with his comment of making a quilt that in the end isn't fit for purpose. On my third quilt, it is lightyears better than my first effort. The first was way over engineered. a great interview with Martin and you guys. thanks . B
Thanks for your comment and for listening, we sure do appreciate it!
What a great interview and video. got to be honest, didn't understand all of it, but most of it. really like listening to anything fabric. thanks for keeping the spark sparking. b.
There is definitely a lot of technical jargon, glad most of it made sense. Thanks for listening!
Thanks guys, I really appreciate the time, thought and effort you put into this. Long time listener, first time MYOG’er. Yep, time to jump right in. Cheers.
Thanks so much for being a listener! We're glad we could turn you into a MYOG'er, Happy Making!
Love Martin! He, as a person, and his work are both fantastic!
We agree! He is full of great information!
❤
Video not clear on the drawstring. Seems a step is missing.
Would love to check out the 3d printed down nozzle for a leaf blower... :-)
This should be the file: myhub.autodesk360.com/ue2a9192e/g/shares/SH56a43QTfd62c1cd96892e5b43212935b89
Awesome!!
Thanks!
Is this tougher to sew through than 1000D cordura or about the same?
It's going to be about as tough as 1000D Cordura. This fabric just has a higher denier.
This video is on a completely different level than the packing cubes music video one! I should have watched and done this kit first. It's the editing that's making the difference here! I do think 1/4 seams is hard for beginners who still have ratty back stitches so all these attached parts create a mess... And very slick material.
Practice makes perfect! Binding can be a bit hard, but you'll get a hang of it. Sometimes putting a sheet of tissue paper or news paper behind the fabric helps create some friction for the feed dogs alleviating the slippery problem.
I need help i got ripstop nylon fabric to make a dry bag and i dont know what time to use on it
You can use a size 10-12 needle and Gutermann Mara 70 thread works great! Let us know if you have any other questions!
Surely the needle size depends on the denier of the nylon used?
Correct! The heavier the fabric, the bigger needle you need.
Hi guys, this is a really great video ! It answered a lot of questions for me. I.will go back over it too. Wes had good info on seam taping that will use. Thanks, Michael
That part about being able to seam tape the lined versions of ecopak and ultra TX was wild!
We're glad you found it helpful!
Excited for rsbtr to carry the Ultra X stuff, i think it's still the previous version
We're excited too!
what will be the best GSM for a backpack?
Challenge ECOPAK™ EPX200 is great for a backpack!
Tt would be useful to see you take sharp and abbbraisive objects against this fabric.
Am i crazy or is the draw string facing just a raw edge inside the hood??
Sounds like you might have something backwards
Kydex is a heat formable plastic that comes in sheets. Very easy to work with, light, and reasonably strong.
Thanks!
Is EPLX600 waterproof
Very waterproof!
Why the cordura 500d multicam being used in some bag brands like CTactical, has a different multicam black pattern? Is it lower quality or fake cordura?
FYI the seam ripper is called a surgical seem ripper.
Thanks!
This is completely pointless, as are all the speaking only segments on this channel. Pattern drafting etc. is the literal definition of something you would want to see a video demonstration of and you have a static image of a ruler with people talking over it.
This was a re-released podcast and we have the video version was Ep. 74 in our playlist. We make the podcast so people can have something to listen to while they sew. We appreciate your comment and it definitely something that is helpful when shown visually.
Yay content! <3
Thanks!!
How do you use the cinch buckles that are included with the kit?
It is for the hammock suspension. You run 1" webbing through them.
Could this be used for a backpack?
Absolutely!
Another excellent episode. Have definitely struggled with finishing Venom for a pocket and maintaining the stretch. What machine are you using for the zigzag? How many layers of Venom will the Singer Heavy Duty machine sew through?
Thank you! We're using the Singer Heavy Duty 4411. It can get through a few layers of fabric for sure, foam is a little more difficult.
Esse tecido é de boa tenacidade?
You can order a sample to make sure it's exactly what you're looking for. ripstopbytheroll.com/products/custom-samples
Muchas gracias
Is this available?
It is a free pattern! cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0261/6507/files/ZPK_with_Divider_-_Pattern.pdf?v=1719321311
Shouldnt be called ripstop should be called ripgo.
😂😂
Thanks Kelsey, especially for taking us through your machines and process!
I've been chain listening to ROTR while struggling through some kits. Yay new content! Thanks ROTR team! <3
Thanks for watching! Best of luck on your kits.
