I have tried the 210d material from extremetextil and I was not able to seal (small pieces) together – despite trying with different temperatures the iron (Clover II) or was sticking to the material (and not sealing, despite the pressure) or not reacting at all.

Hi Matt, A 2 person packraft kit would be amazing! I am very interested in constructing something along the lines of the Alpacka Gnu. I am looking to do some two-person back-country expeditions in the spring time, and the added speed of a 2 person packraft would be pivotal to pulling them off. I totally understand if a 2person boat is further down…[Read more]

Is your Clover always too hot on the High setting? I’ve found that mine can get too hot if I leave it sitting on a stand for a while, but then if I rub it on some wood or something for a few seconds before using it, it cools to the right temperature.
