Description
Note: This product may not persist if it becomes too time-consuming for me to manage, and/or the price may change. I’m selling these fabric scraps below cost to prevent them from ending up in a landfill. To make processing these orders worthwhile, I must spend as little time on them as possible, so I cannot respond to email inquiries about the available sizes/colors, nor can I notify you when a particular fabric becomes available. Feel free to indicate your preferences in the “order notes” box during checkout and I’ll choose pieces accordingly if possible, but I won’t necessarily have the perfect piece for you, so if you are not willing to take a gamble and accept whatever I send, please do not purchase this product.
Note: Now that I’ve sold the pieces that I had accumulated over several years, this product is rarely in stock (like only a few units added to the shop every few months). There are three reasons, the first being that I include more of the scrap fabric with the packraft kits than I used to, the second being that I have some smaller products now so some of the smaller pieces from the ends of rolls are useful to me, and the third reason is that I’ve switched to a different fabric supplier that does better quality control so only a small percentage of the fabric isn’t cosmetically good enough to use in the kits. Thanks for your understanding.
Here I am offering fabric pieces that aren’t useful to me but they could be useful to someone else; for example: irregularly shaped off-cuts, end-of-the-roll pieces that are too small to use in a packraft kit, pieces of discontinued products, and fabric with manufacturing defects that I can’t work around (defects that do not affect the integrity of the fabric).
These pieces are generally 0.3 meters to 1 meter (1-3 feet) long and are irregularly shaped. Each “unit” is 450 grams (1 pound) of fabric, and may be made up of more than one piece unless dimensions are given in the drop-down menu.
These pieces could be useful for making packrafting/camping accessories like small drybags, attachment points and handles, backpacks, collapsible wash tubs, and so on. They could also be useful for other DIY projects unrelated to packrafting.
Because every piece is different, I will not show photos of each one or list their dimensions.
The fabrics (GSM = grams per square meter):
- 250-280 GSM fabric – this is the standard DIY Packraft tube fabric, coated with TPU on one side. Colors may include red, yellow, green, blue, camouflage, and black. One unit is about 1.7 square meters (18 square feet) of fabric.
- 450 GSM fabric – this is the current DIY Packraft floor fabric, coated with TPU on both sides. It is available in black only. Each unit is about 1 square meter (10 square feet) of fabric.
Note that shipping costs are based on metric weight thresholds, with a jump in shipping price as the weight of the parcel increases over each kilogram (or half kilogram in some cases, depending on the shipping service and the destination country). For example, shipping a parcel that weighs 1001 grams can cost the same as shipping a parcel weighing 2000 grams, but a parcel weighing 2001 grams (only one gram more) can cost significantly more. For that reason I have made each “unit” equal to 450 grams (1 pound) of fabric.
The price and availability of this product may change without notice.
