Push alpha pack clone

[LeanMachine]

Heard the push talking about the alpha pack on their podcast. Looked it up. Liked it. Built it. At least my version of it. I normally run a fanny pack but it can be tight on space if i want to take an extra layer. This should give me just the right amount of extra capacity. I primarily built it just for a hip quiver for shooting at home but i think im going to like the easy access to stuff when hang sets and such.

Man, I always love your builds. So clean. Does it bother you how far it hangs down? I feel like my arrows would get pulled out a lot in that configuration

I kind or wear it behind my hip. I do not even notice that it is there. At first i thought it was too long as well but it seems about perfect in use. I am not buckling the leg strap. That is just for when you are sitting. Zipper goes half way under pack so you have full access when seated as well. How im wearing it id say chance of arrows getting pulled out is almost zero because the are behind me. However i will not have arrows in there while in the woods. The quiver part is just for target shooting for me. I can put other crap in that quiver sleeve when hunting. You can put 10x42s in there.

This is slick. Might be a good set up for me to carry in bolts and drill. Thanks for posting!

They slide all the way in. Pic just to demonstrate.

Man that would be real nice for scouting to slide my machete into and carry just a few essentials.

Looks great!

Did you get yourself a double needle machine, or just running parallel stitches? I think I'm going to set my Singer 112W140 up as a dedicated binder so I don't have to constantly swap out needle plates, feet, and feed dogs--it's getting old. I just switched it over to a 1/4" gauge set, but thinking 1/8" or 5/32" will be better (more forgiving) on the 1" binding ribbon.

I sewed all of this on a consew 206rb5 single needle. I do not have the appropriate foot to sew on the binding using the binder. So the first pass is a long ways from the edge. I then make a second pass closer to the edge. Not super efficient but it works.

Its on my to by list but the one i need is $100 unforunately. But having a right angle binder would be clutch. Mine works fine for straight runs. Curves and corners just suck.

For what it's worth, Sharp Sewing and Cutex generally just sell Kun Peng (or often lesser quality) parts that are repackaged with a substantial markup and lesser customer service. I've ordered bobbin cases and a few other parts from each to test the theory.

Yea im sure. $100 is just the cheapest i have found for a right angle that will fit my machine. I bought a cheaper one and it no worky on my machine. So i won't make that mistake again. The next one i order will specifically state my machine model in the listing.

Hey the more belts the merrier! Normally yes i am wearing a saddle and a fanny pack. I will likely make a way for this bag to attach to my saddle. However I do not feel that having the additional belt in the mix would be an issue. I dont wear a belt with my pants so it would be about the same as if i was. All of those "belts" ride at different heights so its not like they are all stacked. My fanny pack buckles near my belly button, for example.

I have been meaning to build a custom fanny pack. I have just run a generic one for about 5 years. It has storage built into the belt portion, which is very handy, but if the right side was open belt i could slide this pack onto that. But i like the idea of being able to leave the hip pack on if i take fanny off. We will see. Real world use will sort it all out. For now its working awesome for shooting in the yard.

I have the saddle and a gun/battle belt that also buckles high like u describe and sometimes after long hikes were the saddle and belt had time to move around and self adjust I can get a pinch point in the love handle/muffin top area...easy to readjust but it's a kinda tender area to get pinched when u not expecting it.....I still working to alleviate that issue and could see how u maybe have the same problem with all the belts

That leg pouch looks very useful.... Good job
