The future - in a YouTube video from seven years ago!
"A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds." Ralph Waldo Emerson
Yup, SS got it right. There was a discussion of this video when it came out, and some of us (I'm guilty) even tried some of the then commercially available bonding products for fabrics he mentioned. They work well enough to hold two pieces of fabric together long enough to sew them. As a replacement for pins, they're okay ... but just. Ironically, one type of bonding produces a stronger connection than a sewn seam - using 3M adhesive transfer tape or some other adhesive to bond "cuben fiber". My old tarp is testimony that it lasts and lasts. The insulated cuben fiber hammock that I kicked a hole in down in Linnville Gorge didn't lose all it's stuffing because the baffles were adhered with 1/2" wide adhesive transfer tape, and they acted like ripstop threads, i.e. stronger than than the pieces they joined. (I recycled the cf and the down for other reasons - condensation.)
