First try making a frame bag with heat welded PVC tent fabric.  Quite the learning curve, but all the welds are good and it looks water tight.  Super small, but what the hey.  It will fit a 2.5L Platypus and a few other small, dense items.  Pretty rad little project made with scrap materials and tools from work.  Made in Greenland at Summit Station!

Really cool  thumbsup ! I'm thinking about doing also a PVC welded frame bag. Any feedback or advise on your bag if you would have to do it again ?
what kind of PVC fabric did you use ? (den, g/sqm...)
thanks
