Here it is – it proved better to add a second guide at the rear to feed the tape straighter into the forward guide.

I can’t really tell from the photo if you have a cargo zip, but if so could you get inside and apply some of Matt’s Tuck Tape over all the seams? I would do what Mike says first, and then run that tape over all the seams inside if possible. Looking inside my MRS X2, it has some sort of sealing tape over all the seams.

When I get a minute I’ll make a little guide to bolt in front of the roller – something to feed the seam tape through as it comes from behind the roller and allow it to be steered. Will also keep the tape at a flatter angle to the fabric and closer to the gun, and add a little drag to keep it taut. Fiddling around with fingers and thumbs is too awkward.

I haven’t yet had time to do more than a couple of hours testing, but it’s quite practical to use the gun in one hand and the roller in the other, following directly behind the gun. It also seems to work well, though it will need more practice, to wrap the seam tape over the roller so it trails behind, and use the roller in your palm and two…[Read more]

After becoming disillusioned with my broken down sealing tools, I sat and watched youtube videos on hot air welding guns and then went and bought
 this one from ebay.

I’ve only had it a couple of days and only played briefly with it, but I’m very impressed. It comes with various bits including a 20mm flat nozzle and a silicone roller, is nicely…[Read more]

If you create a Packraft with the T-zipper you can insert airtight chambers with your gear then you have a multi chamber Packraft…

The only way to create a rigged 2 persons Packraft is using the High-pressure Drop Stitch Floor or aluminum Poles (construction)… 😉

The tubes folding up was an issue even in flat water, and I imagine that in broken water it might well get swamped. Part of the trouble with the MRS X2 is that it doesn’t have a top-up valve usable while paddling – you have to pull up on the bank to top up the pressure. If I were to keep the boat I would definitely add one and that would partly,…[Read more]

Rather more than imitation, it looks almost like a straight rip-off. A whois shows the site was registered on 5.01.2017 by a Nick Kowalski in Somerset. The videos and instructions are “available after purchase of a kit” – why are these not public??? He will sell you a sample pack of red, blue and black fabrics, but only sells the kit in green.…[Read more]

Could I make a suggestion here. I plan to use Exped flat valves on my two boats, partly because we have Exped sleeping mats now and it makes sense to use the same schnozzle pump for both. These are excellent little valves anyway, quite unobtrusive and well proven to be reliable. The only negative is the cost – you have to cannibalise an Exped item…[Read more]

Yes, a green – was missing it in your colors.
Well, something like: 3425, 341, 3435, 343 – would be nice – and if “lighter” 362 – would be nice!
