  1. Sewed a new cover for the mini greenhouse. The old one had completely disintegrated in the sun. Re-used donated zippers from an old hot tub cover.

    The 6 mil plastic sewed fine but the large canvas and the slick material were at times challenging to control.

    Pleased with the outcome and happy to #repair, #reuse to extend this greenhouse's life. I call it re- #MYOG : Re-Make Your Own Greenhouse. ツ

  3. Achievement unlocked! The Brother KE-430D bar tacker I bought last year is now fully operational. I have access to all 89 stock patterns.

    The control panel of the machine says 3 phase 220V which had me scramble to get 3 phase power to the basement. Closer inspection however, revealed that the bar tacker was wired for single phase 220V, which I already have available. A new power plug brought the machine to life.

    This is when I learned that the work clamp was worn and the work plate didn't support all patterns. Now with a new clamp and plate, I can sew all available patterns. I can't wait to put this machine to use!

  5. Wir schreiben viel über das Gehen. Aber selten darüber, dass wir manchmal nicht gehen und darüber, dass der Körper auch eine Geschichte trägt: Entzündung, Angst, Schmerz, Überforderung. Dass Autonomie auch heißt, nicht verfügbar sein zu dürfen.

    Das Draußen ist längst kein neutraler Raum mehr. Erwartungen: an Selbstwirksamkeit, an Transformation. Wer geht, arbeitet an sich. Wer nicht geht, bleibt zurück.

    Das Ferale ist nicht immer der Trail, sondern auch die Weigerung, den eigenen Körper verfügbar zu machen.

  8. The backpack pattern thus far in Seamly2D (seamly.io). Piece mode shows the 3 pattern pieces: Back, Bottom & Front. The Variables dialog window shows some of the parameters driving the dimensions of the pieces.

  10. A 2nd packpack prototype, this time out of Tyvek. The final version will be made out of Ultra 200X which has no stretch and rather stiff. This prototype out of Tyvek shows how the final pack will "feel".

    This version is deeper, taller and wider than the 1st version. I refined the bottom shape, which was relatively easy to do thanks to the parametric design in Seamly2D (seamly.io).

  12. First prototype in fabric after drafting a pattern in Seamly2D (seamly.io/) based on the initial paper prototype. Made from recycled cotton. This prototype validated the pattern while also identifying several areas of improvement.

  14. Starting to prototype my first backpack. Made the initial prototype out of paper to get a feel for the shape I have in mind. I find it easier to iterate with paper and tape before continuing the design in software and fabric.

  16. The first pattern was created in a vector graphics program (Affinity Designer). Adjusting margins, offsets turned out to be a pain in the neck.

    Then I found out that FreeCAD, a parametric 3D modeling application, can export 2D views. I redid the same wallet design with all critical dimensions parameterized.

    Producing wallets catering to different bill sizes is now as simple as adjusting one or two parameters.

  18. Refined my wallet pattern and explored a black logo on black Ultra 200 fabric to create the Dark Money Wallet.

  20. Clamshell ultra light First Aid bag out of 1.43oz and 1.0oz #dyneema. Aquaguard YKK zipper for a near waterproof container, large enough for longer adventures. At 20 grams light enough to use on overnighters.

    Ample room to do double duty and also accomodate toiletries.

    YKK zipper, Dyneema, Venom UHMWPE Hybrid webbing from RipStopByTheRoll.com

    The bag's decal is a Direct Heat Transfer (DTF) label.

  22. Un aggiornamento sul mio #cucito

    Lo zaino è finito e l'ho usato un po' di volte, e sono decisamente soddisfatta. Devo finire di scrivere le istruzioni da pubblicare sul mio sito e poi il post sul blog.

    Oggi è il patrono della città dove ha sede l'azienda per cui lavoro, e quindi ho deciso di lavorare un po' sull'altro zaino.

    Già, perché avevo tagliato la stoffa per un altro zaino, questa volta da cucire a macchina, e ne ho più o meno bisogno (o quantomeno mi farebbe molto piacere averlo) entro una scadenza, per cui avere un giorno libero in cui liberare lo spazio per la macchina da cucire e iniziare a fare qualche cucitura è stato decisamente comodo.

    È la parte davanti della mia idea originale di zaino a due componenti ispirato ad uno zaino dell'IKEA, iniziato tempo fa quando ho fatto quello documentato su sewing-patterns.trueelena.org/…

    Alla fine la base era venuta grande abbastanza anche da sola, ma volevo comunque vedere se l'idea poteva funzionare, e comunque ho cose che posso fare con uno zaino più piccolo.

    L'obiettivo minimo per oggi era cucire i fianchi con la cerniera, e quello è fatto.

  24. La custodia per #Pyra è finita.

    Avrei potuto cucirla meglio, e magari domani o settimana prossima scucirò il nastro dai margini di cucitura e lo ricucirò, perché quello è attaccato proprio male, ma le misure sono finalmente precise e funziona.

    Ci son voluti solo 3 tentativi per sistemare le misure :)

    Ci saranno foto (e un post sul blog). Non oggi. :D
