Exploring locally, with IRON RAFT DIY packrafts in Cambridge.
Iron Raft allows you to access packrafting through DIY self-build kits. Opening doors to adventure and to explore new places, even if they’re on your door step.
We set out to take advantage of the stunning weather we had, to explore the University town of Cambridge. Filmed during Summer 2020, when Cambridge was in lockdown due to the Covid-19 pandemic, we knew we had to stay close to home. So we took this to our advantage and explored locally. From Cambridge's backstreets, to Kings Parade to our launch spot, the Mill Pond.
Please note all Government guidelines were adhered to when we approached this project.

@@alexmultimodalpackrafting915 thanks a lot
Nice
Not yet commented?! Hm... I have the experiance to use a 2,6m paddle to not get wet inside IronRaft Packraft. The lady in the yellow packraft should be wet.
Useful lesson, thank you!

23:28 Like Elastigirl? ;)
Has anyone eever ended up with a bowl, or whatever they used, stuck inside? XD
Which iron do you use?
Great video. Just about to buy a raft from you folks. What paddles would you recommend? It will used mainly in upland environment and would need something like above for my rucksack? Cheers.
You didn't let the dog get in! I used to look after my mates Jack Russel (when he and his family went on holiday) and Tomtom (the dog) used to love going in my inflatable. One time I put the boat in the water and turned round to pick up the paddle and the dog made a running jump into the boat which of course gave it enough momentum to drift off. Luckily enough I had the painter on the bank and was just able to grab it before the dog drifted off out of reach. The little bugger, hahahahaha.

200 degrees? Fahrenheit or Celsius? You should always specify.
I guess 200° C
he's not american
where can you buy the fabric?
Wow. When my kids are older and I hopefully will have more time I will try this!
👍👍👍👍
This looks great
Would that method also work for thicker vinyl? Let's say the same material which drybags are made of?
Greetings from Italy! A question: where can you buy that kind of "iron" to weld the various pieces? Thank you.
Hi! You can buy them on a number of places on the internet, Amazon is where I have ordered mine from and they have done a great job. :) Cheers, Toby
@@ironraftself-buildpackraft5160 Thanks for the information. Unfortunately, the research, until now, did not give the desired results.
Hello sir, this heat sealing technique we use for only TPU fabric, BUT joining PVC FABRIC is possible from this same heat sealing technique?
I'm afraid we have no experience with PVC, however I do not think it would be possible.
which iron do you us? and which do you recommend?
For the last two boats (and in the video) I have used the Jamara Pro Star. It is extremely powerful and creates a good bond, however the compromise is that it is slightly oversized and you will find that you often only use the tip of the iron. (You may need to purchase an adaptor depending on your location as it is a german company and comes with a 2 pin plug.)
Isn't this a copy of Matt's DIY packrafts from Canada?
The idea of building a packraft at home is same yes. We're trying to make it more accessible for the people in Europe. It is worth mentioning also that our boats and kits have different specs to the DIY packraft kits from Matt.
Aren't Matt's rafts just an updated version of the ones made and used by Peter Halkett??
FIRST! Great job on the detail process. I look forward to the later vids!
Thanks, later steps will be up online soon!
Great video, thanks! Is that iron you are using coated with something so the plastic doesn't stick to the iron?
Thanks Robert. The Iron has a teflon coating, although it has worn off at the tip as you may be able to see in the video. Our fabric is high temperature nylon so it will not melt/stick to the iron around 200 deg. so it is more to do with the fabric rather than the coating on iron.
Only one question when can i get my hands on one of these!
I believe you emailed yesterday?? Either way, the packraft kits will be shipping in early August, Cheers.
