Does anybody have any helpful tips/pointers on modding a backpack? Adding in some webbing for molle attachment points, and some extra strapping and buckles for cinch points. How did you go about doing it? Hand sewn or machine? Places where you got your bits and pieces/materials?
Seems like it might pretty difficult to get a sewing machine to be useful in the lower regions of the backpack, so im thinking hand sewn might work?
I am not a sewing pro, i have hand stitched a bunch of patches on my motorcycle/metal vest using some needles from the old ladys junk drawer in the kitchen and some braided fishing line (for strength of course) and they are all doing ok. So i figure for the projects i want to do it might work. Nothing structural and it will be quite tedious but doable maybe?
Input please. Help me make an ok pack much better. Thanks.
