It's been a while since I had a project. My Uncle asked me to make him a daypack. I originally thought of making an internal frame daypack, but I realized that my Necchi Supernova was having some difficulty punching through some of the thicker seams. So it turned into a frame and pack combo. I haven't made the bag yet but here is a look at the frame.
I used Exo Mountain Gear K2 shoulder straps and hipbelt. I just don't have the capability to make those yet.
The frame is 500d Cordura. I wanted to reduce the point pressure that some of the compression straps can cause pulling on the seam so I made some really short batwing type of system, to spread the load along a wider area of the seam. There are 3 looplocs on each side to take the compression straps, similar to the way Kifaru used to connect to the old Duplex frame.
The lumbar pad is dual density foam and 3d spacer mesh. The hipbelt slides behind the pad and then velcro holds it in place.
The frame is 1/16"th HDPE frame sheet and two 1/2" x 3/16" 2024 aluminum stays. The whole frame is 23" tall with the stays being 22 1/2".
I'll post pics of the bag when I get that done.
