<span style=”color: #000000; font-family: Montserrat; font-size: 15px;”>There are software programs that assist designers to visualize complicated 3D shapes of products made with fabrics. Many industries, not only clothing designers, use them for their simplicity, accuracy and speed. When the designer modifies the 2D pattern pieces, the 3D model changes as well, in real time. CLO3D is the most popular, available online to amateurs as well as professionals. Hope this helps.</span>

Edit: I made an error recommending another software program that is not applicable for the OP’s use. Deleted.

First splash with one of the new DIYPackrafts I made this winter!

I couldn’t be happier. It handles just like an old creek boat kayak I had years ago but lighter, is much more controllable than my canoe and is going to see a TON of time on the water throughout Canada. Thanks again for making these kits Matt!

Gidday! I seem to DIY everything in my life, so might as well try out Matt’s kits. Looking forward to much fun on the water throughout Canada in the coming years … oldcanuck
