Nice bags yet again, GG. That latest 32 looks like a spiral pattern as opposed to a radiation though... granted I'm not a very experienced stitcher so I may be way off.

Edit - I think you're right about the radiation pattern... I was expecting the red to be the color that's grouped into sets of 4 but it looks like the gray is? I r noob.

Wasabi - it's yours! I'm pretty sure it's the radiation pattern, the photo being so close up and off-center makes it hard to tell.

Peace.

It's radiation. No doubt about it unless you added something extra.

Two bags for Ken S. Redux. Both tungsten/poly, 63.2 grams.

20-panel. Pattern originated from Louis Rinowski. First one ever made by me. Micro SS shot size/poly, 61.4 grams.

All of them loosely gathered, round and more-or-less floppy.

It's a 20-panel, Brian.

No one makes 20-panels other than Louis Rinowski, elemental footbags, and myself I guess. They're like the complicated older brother of the 12-panel.

I can bust out a 14-panel in 30-minutes to an hour.

Thanks Guys

Post by garygargan »

Seems we have a community of hardcore modified users - so thanks you guys for the comments.

Waylon - look in your mailbox on Wednesday... and while I would love to keep this one, I have more than sufficient bags for my kicking needs, at the moment I need to get more people to try out my bags. (And finance the Fields Fabrics bill!)

Donovan, Will_T, Brianbear, it means a lot to have guys like you say great bag.

Matt, sorry I don't know the weight yet, I filled it up till it felt good. (Postal scale at work) I shudder to think of that old bag I sent your way, it was so amateur!

92 panels hey... there is nothing more annoying than a good example... perhaps after I finish bag 27...

I can make a 92panel no problem, it's just a question of whether I should make it for looks or for practical playing. Sometimes my beliefs on them way on the former.

marco, i love triclaws, especially variants of them, nice bag!!!!
way, not too sure why i said 14, lol, i guess i just had it on my mind...
either way, thats siick (and one of the few designs i've never attempted).
4,8,12,14,26,32,38(special request),92= checkmark. i guess i better make a twenty, any tips, or just gather as you go? i know how frusterating 12's are, and i imagine this to be similar as you said.
Stitchers i challenge you: post a picture of all the different numbered paneled bags you've made. i will soon.
