DIY pullouts

[stx.dead.I]

I'm looking to save a little money and have some fun while I'm at it. I enjoy DIYs just afraid I won't be very good at fabric work.

Anyone ever make any lightweight pullout bags? I'm hoping to start with an easier project but need advice

Thanks for the video, I have made about 10 pullouts myself but after watching that video I think I can cut my time down per bag.

After reading through that topic, I went hunting for a sewing machine. Nobody in our immediate family has a sewing machine we can borrow. Wifey said I should just buy the kifaru pullouts and be done with it :/

Your wife is probably right.

Yeah. If you get sewing machine, then you buy thread, bobbins, needles, zippers, and lots and lots of fabrics. All of which will quickly total more than you'll spend on the kifaru pullouts.

This statement is so true but buying them just ain't as fun!! I'm just starting to sew myself but it is a lot of fun.

Perhaps but you also have the ability to make things customized to certain sizes you want. You can also choose different colors and materials to match certain requirements. For instance, I have my kill kit and possibles pouch made out of safety orange material so it's easy to see.

That doesn't even start to encompass everything else you can make quite easily instead of dropping a decent amount of money for. Plus you can start creating your own things and making your own modifications. I like Kifaru stuff but some things are too easy to make at home for me to purchase.

Brad hit it perfectly on the head, the reason I make alot of my own gear is because I am capable and enjoy making it plus I can customize gear exactly the way I want it.
