My packraft has a lot of leaks from incompletely sealed seams.
Probably I think that the form of the bowl when heat seal iron does a curve was bad.
Therefore the seems of the curve is not beautiful. Air seems to leak from there.
When you made PACKRAFT for the first time, were there a lot of leaks from incompletely sealed seams? Will such a thing be a common thing?

[hiroshi]

It was completed.

However, there are many punctures.
I must solve this puncture.
I attach soapy water and find the place of the puncture and intend to heat-seal it.
Because there are very many punctures, is there the method that, besides, is good?

[hiroshi]

I heated up again.
I was able to tear it off.
Thank you.

[hiroshi]

I should be able to tear it off, but do not seem to be able to tear it off.

Because there is no help for it, are even these measures good?

Or how is such measures?

[hiroshi]

I have begun to make it.
I have finished doing Step1.
However, in defiance of explanation, I have heat-sealed 1.5cm – 2cm of both ends.
I cannot tear it off.
What should I do?

[hiroshi]

I arrive for such a feeling.

“diy packraft kit” (The contents of the kit)

Cloth and the air infusion valve that the bottom was cut to a paper pattern. (I make the main body with this.)
The cloth that the top is blue and black cloth.
The surplus cloth that the blue cloth was cut.
The cloth that the black cloth forms a seam of 2cm.
I did not think that there was blue cloth (cut surplus cloth). With blue cloth, I can give a test of heat-sealing it.

cut to a paper pattern. (I make the main body with this.)

The surplus cloth that the blue cloth was cut.
The cloth that the black cloth forms a seam of 2cm.

Well, I make it.

I ordered it on February 1, and a product arrived on February 13. I make it at once.
By the way, it is a question, what should I do to attach a photograph to the topic of this forum?

[hiroshi]

I think that my question was not clearly understood by topic and reply, so I will ask again.
1. Japan’s voltage is 100 V, can I use “clover mini iron Ⅱ – the adaptor”?
2. How long will it take delivery to Japan?

[hiroshi]

Blue Colour. (floor and seams is black)
Large size.
single layer floor.
I ordered.How long will it reach Japan?
This will mark Japan for the first time in the map.
By the way, I plan to purchase “clover mini iron Ⅱ – the adapter” from amazon.com,
Japan is V100 but can it be used?

[hiroshi]

It is a question about color.
For example, if you choose blue, is the floor and tape blue?
Or is the floor or tape black?

[hiroshi]

Thank you for an immediate answer.
By the way, I am 180cm tall, 100 kg in weight, does the size have good S, M, which of L?

Then will DIY PACKRAFT KIT have the manual?

[hiroshi]

japan is 100V. clover mini iron is high-low version.

The cause of the puncture is lacking in the adhesion by temperature being low.

Because temperature was low, I improved a soldering iron.

 

[hiroshi]

Please tell.
Did you purchase this product?
How many meters did you purchase it?

I painted with soapy water and confirmed a puncture.
I did a puncture from a floor and a connection part of the tube. The pressure and temperature of the iron to heat-seal did not seem to be enough.
I think that you had to make it very exactly when you make it first. I reflect.
Is “TUCK TAPE” the thing of $ 7.99 in the online shop?
Should I stick this along a seam from the inside?
