I have been looking at fabrics from elsewhere as you are out of stock. Could you please explain the difference between Nylon 6 and Nylon 66 fabric?

Interesting fabric, how can I make a 100% waterproof bag or tote using this fabric and technique which I'll fill up about 2 gallons of water and no leaks should occur? I would like to buy this as a fabric and not for the boat. This TPU nylon fabric is impossible to buy from USA.

Making a waterproof bag is easy - just iron two pieces of fabric together around the edges - but you’ll need to find a valve or port that won’t leak. There are some press- fit valves available on the DIY Packraft website that might suit your needs.

You're saying this model of the iron can't get too hot - so one could just ramp it to max and be good?
@DIYPackraft 4 жыл бұрын
Not necessarily... I’ve only tried two of them, so no guarantees. And if you live someplace where the electricity is 220 V, then definitely not. Max would be a good place to start in North America though.

yo! this is very cool, do you think that this tool would be good for DIY outdoor clothing construction? trying to get a setup for my workshop
@DIYPackraft 4 жыл бұрын
Yeah, but only if you’re using heat sealable fabrics - otherwise it won’t do anything except melt things.

@@DIYPackraft so you think that even if i just use it to apply seam sealing tape to synthetic fabrics it wont work?

Ah, yeah that might work - I’m not sure.
