Thanks Matt. I’m using a 210D nylon with TPU coating similar (if not the same) as the original fabric. I got the kit from someone here in the UK that didn’t get around to building but wanted to add the orange seam strips for a different look. I’ve got the original blue strips – wish I’d used them now!!

The test seams have all been very strong and look good when pulled apart so I’m comfortable with the welds.

Is there a better place for the join on that seam? Somewhere with the least stress? I imagine maybe somewhere on the long top curve?

Looks great. I’m in the process of building a Skeena with the same trips (and more) in mind.

Thanks. I’ve tried adding pics again although they don’t show much. I’ll get on with the build and keep my fingers crossed!

New user here just starting out on a Skeena build (a kit someone else imported but didn’t start the build other than separating out the parts). Looking forward to getting on with it and exploring the Scottish Highlands.
