anyone interested in buying Matt’s material IN EUROPE for making a sweet 210D yellow packraft with a black floor (Boston + top-up valve + PLANS for a large packraft included)?
I have finally decided not to make the packraft by myself. It is certainly possible (I made a seat and some demo seams) but I do not fully trust my skills and the iron temperature issue is raising additional concerns.
Since you will not have to pay the import tarrifs, VAT (it is already in the EU) and expensive shipping from Canada we can certainly make a good deal for EU people. In order not to spam you can write me on oskarkulik@gmail.com.

@Chris
Thank you for your input – so there are more of us complaining about the material (I also found one negative opinion on Facebook). I am happy though that I did not order the full 6m2…
I will let you know how in contrast Matt’s material works. Maybe I’ll even make a short video :).
I have tried the 210d material from extremetextil and I was not able to seal (small pieces) together – despite trying with different temperatures the iron (Clover II) or was sticking to the material (and not sealing, despite the pressure) or not reacting at all. Maybe it is all on me… I have ordered a set of material Samples from Matt – I hope this one will work ;).
@Chris – please let me know whether you manage to find a way dealing with the 210d fabric from extremetextil…
