I'm honestly floored. This is the first video of yours that I've watched (not to be the last) and you're an incredibly skilled maker (it seems to run in the family, if this is the shop that you grew up around) at such a young age. This is a very well thought out interpretation of Adam's bag, and everything was done to such a high calibre of quality. This deserves way more views than it has. Keep up the awesome work!
Hello Mel. Thank you SO much for the comment and for checking out my video. I really appreciate it your feedback! The more videos I do, the better the quality of them seems to get.... so this is one of my best (and most recent video). As for the bag and the construction of the project; yes, it helps to have access to a full sewing shop and and Dad that could help me along the way when I needed it :) Thanks again!
My husband just finished this bag and it looks great. Your video was a HUGE help along the whole process and saved us some questions and potential frustrations. I own a sewing studio and now I feel I need a bar tack machine and some of those other machines you have in your workshop. Life goals. Thanks for your great video!
So much respect for your attention to details, what a gorgeous result. I'm making rounds on all the UA-cam EDC bag tutorials to gather inspirations and insights to make my own. Thank you for the video. I didn't even know there's a machine dedicated to bar tacks!
@@MakeWithMiles A few people have asked me if I want to venture into UA-cam, and I'm seriously considering it. Filming and editing are so foreign to me, I just don't know how to start. Your videos are so nicely made. It's really inspiring :)
Love love love this! It looks so crazy good!! And I have some serious sewing machine(s) envy right now, haha. That edge binder is amazing. Must have been great to spend some time in your dad's shop!
Awesome job, I started too at my fathers shop at age 14 as a hobby after school I ended up graduating from design school for clothing at age 19 , I'm 47 now and still enjoying this profession keep it up
I think I ended up watching this about 20 times while I made mine. I've just uploaded a video about it and honest I don't think I could have done it without your video. Thank you so much for sharing!
Good job on the EDC bag and a very good video production. Keep learning your fathers skills they will serve you and prosper you your entire life, even if they are not your chosen profession for income. Never stop learning new skills.
Wow! Just wow! Turned out super great! I’m going to start one tomorrow in leather, looks like I have a real challenge in front of me! Truly awesome dude! 👌🏼
I’m kinda new to sewing and really learning a lot from videos. Planning to make the panel hat and this bag. You do a great job explaining and showing steps.
Nice build Miles! I love the video, very well done. I appreciate the link to supplies and the excellent comments you made all throughout the build. Very nice indeed! Thank you!
It turned out great, thanks for the video. I bought the kit, and am going to attempt it soon. I like the materials that you chose, I’ll hopefully do something similar. That bar tack machine is awesome
Get your Dad on UA-cam, if he isn’t already. Clearly an amazing design mentor to you, but some of the expert insight (binder feeder attachment) is mind blowing. If not his own channel, more sewing vids.
This is such an amazing video. Thanks so much! I'm working on making mine out of waxed canvas that I'm making myself. This was a very helpful and entertaining video
This was cool! I'm learning to sew and I want to make a bag like this. I just made some skillet handle pot holders (been burning my hand on cast irons)
Thank you Justin! This is the first video that I've shot with the Panasonic GH4. My dad has a few older full frame Nikon lenses that I am using with a cheap lens adapter. Th This means that everything has to be shot in manual settings (focus, aperture and shutter speed). I really need a wide angle lens but that's going to have to wait until I've saved up more money.
@@MakeWithMiles well it looks great. Saving is the best way. Never borrow if you help it. I was going to buy the gh5 but I bought a Canon 6D mkii instead. Man that was a mistake. I may sell it and get the gh5. Not sure yet.
I have an earlier version of the camera, and wide angle is a bit of a problem with full-frame lenses, so you either get a wide-angle made for the camera, or find one of those front-of-lens converters, does the opposite to a teleconverter. It depends how wide you want to go, but a good converter would reverse the effect of the smaller sensor in the camera. A lot get made for modern digital cameras and lenses, but it looks hard to find one from the 35mm film era, and I have no idea which would be better.
Great work. Awesome video. Could you tell me the name of the weights you use to cut out your fabric? I have seen them a couple different times and can never find them. Thanks
Nice work. Great attention to detail and commitment to see the project through. Real curious about your Dad, there are only a handful of guys doing what he does, with that kind of shop. I'm putting together that he might be at working with, or affiliated with Patagonia on some level? I've also got a shop with a dozen machines working as a designer of gear and apparel, but also have been repairing them since college. Would be great to learn more about his business. If possible, send him my info or message me... I'm in Washington state, been working in the outdoor industry since the early 90's. My feeling is that him and I might know each other or have close friends in common. Thanks -jason
Hi Jason, Thanks for the message and for checking out my video. Check out my Dad at @mtn.soles.outdoor.threads on instagram for what he's up to in his shop. Yes, he's had a very long relationship doing repairs for Patagonia. He worked in outdoor retail in the late 90's and early 00's.
@Jason Ling Yes, we know Peter. He worked for my Dad for about a year before he moved to Santa Cruz and my Dad introduced him to some of the folks at Patagonia.
Binding tape is usually bias cut, and my guess is that you're using a bias-cut tape, from the way it goes around curves. It's a standard enough way of finishing edges, uses a specialised presser foot. And bar tacking is the basic process for making a buttonhole.
@@davebell4917 Hi Dave. What I used is a thicker nylon gross grain ribbon that is specifically used in backpack and bag manufacturing, it's not a bias cut tape and it's not cheap gross grain from the local big box fabric store. In upholstery, home sewing, and lighter weight garments many people use a bias tape, but on heavy stuff like bags nylon gross grain is the way to go. And yes, I used specific feet on the sewing machine that work with the binder. Also, there is an actual difference between a bar tack and a button hole and there are specific industrial sewing machines for each type of stitch. The machine my Dad has in his shop is a 42 stitch bar tacking machine which is often used in backpack and tent production. Button holes look similar, but with button holes you have the ability to slice a hole in the middle for the button to come through. A bar tack does not have the ability to do that.

This was two years ago can’t even imagine what u doing now! So much talent and attention to detail! And passion and craft dude you are awesome !

You are young and very skilled. God bless! Amazing!

I watched your video and was equally impressed. You did a really nice job with Martian/NASA theme and the printed fabrics. Really excellent!
This is really nice… thank you for showing your process… I have 4 sewing machines and I sew cross body bags and bucket hats
Nice job! You are so lucky to have access to all those machines! Your dad is cool!
Not sure if awesome begins to cover it. But, awesome!
Good job on the EDC bag and a very good video production. Keep learning your fathers skills they will serve you and prosper you your entire life, even if they are not your chosen profession for income. Never stop learning new skills.
Your great great grandfather would be amazed and proud. Nice work!
Thank you Uncle David! I hope you are well!
Love the way it opens fullyPerfect top!
Wow! Just wow! Turned out super great! I’m going to start one tomorrow in leather, looks like I have a real challenge in front of me! Truly awesome dude! 👌🏼
Very good work kid. Your dad has some really nice machines.
Great work Miles! Thanks for decoding Mr Savages’s construction process!! The metal frame looks much easier than I expected.
Thank you Richard!
That shoulder strap with the ak clips and pad details came out looking awesome
Thank you!
I’m kinda new to sewing and really learning a lot from videos. Planning to make the panel hat and this bag. You do a great job explaining and showing steps.
Thanks for the feedback! I always try and make it as clear as possible so I'm glad you are thinking of making them yourself ;)
I am amazed. Very skilled. 👏
Next time you come over on a Friday night I want to see this Miles.
That is pretty dope. Very high quality end result
Thanks so much for sharing! My wife and I loved it. Much skills that you demonstrated. Your bag looks fantastic. Daniel

Thank you very much!
Cool Video! Love the bag, looks better than most bags you can buy.
I’m in Awe of you, young man!! Excellent Job. 😊😊😊😊
Haha! Thanks ;)
Awesome bag! Motivates me to pick up the plans, and then learn how to sew.
You should definitely give it a go!
Mies, This is fantastic. You have some serious mad skills. You gave me some ideas to enhance my bag. Can't wait to see more of your videos.
Thank you so much!

Nice build. Very calming.

Awesome!! Puts my sewing job on mine to shame. Incredible work!
Thank you Shawn!
Great build! Thanks for the video🙌🏼

Thanks for watching! I hope you post a video of your build as well.
Great bag, Miles - beautifully engineered
completely AWESOME !
Great Build Miles it turned out great! I love that that the simpler build is Adam Savage's haha
Thank you Dave. I figured that if I was going to make one and make a video, it needed to be unique and different from what he did :)
Hell yeah 👍 keep making.!!!
Dude, you are wicked talented. Nice build, excellent video/editing work.
This turned out really nice. good job!
Thank you for watching!
Dude! Such a great project! And your videography and editing is getting so good. What camera and lenses do you use?

Great Video Miles - Well Done ☘️
Thank you for watching!
That was awsome

First time I'm watching your video n I'm already your fan...
It's looks so easy when you are making.
Thank you!
Awesome intro! Nice work on the bag!
Thank you Brian!
damn! great video, my guy. great bag too.
Thanks dude! I appreciate it.
Great work. Awesome video. Could you tell me the name of the weights you use to cut out your fabric? I have seen them a couple different times and can never find them. Thanks
Thanks for watching. This is a link to the place where my Dad bought the pattern weights. www.ids-la.com/search.asp?keyword=weights
Yours looks better made than the ones he sells.
Thanks ;)
Sweet build! I'm in the scary process of doing this as well. Not sure if I missed it, but did you put any plastic sheet in the bottom of the bag?
Thank you ! I decided I didn't want the bottom of the bag to be too stiff so I didn't put the plastic sheet in. Good luck on yours!
Awesome channel
Thanks for the visit
Holy smokes
Awesome!

Looks that Singer looks just like my lu 563😂
Молодец!
Nice!

whats the seam tape you are using?
Are you referring to the binding tape that I used to bind the seams? You can use a thick grosgrain ribbon to accomplish that. Hope that helps!
Binding tape is usually bias cut, and my guess is that you're using a bias-cut tape, from the way it goes around curves. It's a standard enough way of finishing edges, uses a specialised presser foot. And bar tacking is the basic process for making a buttonhole.
