    Duplex Lite Clone

    Made a 26” version last night. It went a lot smoother with the points taken from @WoodBow Need to cut some longer arrow stays for this one and try it out. Ended up using a piece of surf rod blank I had for the tie/handle between the top of the frame sheet.

    Duplex Lite Clone

    @WoodBow Starting on another frame sheet and looking at how you did yours VS the kifaru I see that my life could be easier. I was just blatantly copying what they did, I should have been improving. How you did the top loops is much better, it will last longer and easier to sew. I’m trying to...

    Duplex Lite Clone

    Took me awhile to figure out how kifaru put the belt together, had to walk away for a couple hours but then lightbulb went on and got it done. I found some shoulder straps in the classifieds and for the price i figured wasn’t with my time to make them. I had just barely enough presser foot lift...

    Duplex Lite Clone

    Got some time today to tinker. I think if I made $1/hr that took me to do these I could have bought them 😂 Lumbar is done, ended up glueing up 3 pieces of 1/2” xpe foam and shaping. Still working on the belt.

    love seeing your projects woodbow, your work is so clean. After a lot of research and deliberation I’m going to use carbon arrows for stays. I can always swap them to the aluminum or order some composite from kifaru.

    Let's talk foam

    Okay, I’m gonna try a set of shoulder straps here shortly. Also need to make a lumbar pad, the kifaru one is shaped which is what made me wonder about the shoulder straps

    What are you guys using to shape foam? Do you shape foam for shoulder straps or just let the edges square?

    Duplex Lite Clone

    No the lite doesn’t not use the grommets. I don’t have any issues backstitching. I do have what seems to be random issues with the top thread breaking. I switched to the size 18 needle and it went fine for awhile, then Sunday it started breaking again and I couldn’t figure out what changed.

    Duplex Lite Clone

    I sewed the first stay sleeve in last night. Didn’t go exactly as planned but I think it is OK. I didn’t take into account how much room the stay would bring in the width of the webbing. So the first side is straight and then I put the stays in and sewed the other side but it got out of line at...

    Invest money into an free ALICE frame or stop tinkering and stay with my MR PU28?

    I saw one at army and navy for cheap and started thinking I could use it as a base but I concluded that I didn’t think it would be worth the time with how short/wide it was. Ended up trying to make a frame sheet like a duplex. I do have the MRPU28 and it’s a great bag, but I also want...

    Wool sock recommendations?

    I tried some alpaca socks last year and really liked them for warm and comfort but they just were not made to withstand a lot of abuse. I need to find a better made brand
