1 old innertube, 15mins, sub 1 pence for sewing thread, job done!
I was surprised how easily the machine coped with 3 layers of rubber. If I hadn't gone tubeless years ago I would have enough old tubes to make a 'special' suit for the weekend sir

That's great, you should sell 'em.
How much bigger would one made from a 29" tube be?
May the bridges you burn light your way

That's amazing!
I bet you could sell these at £15 a pop on Ebay if you had the time to make them!

That's brilliant - like the patch too... you'd make killing if you made these as little tool rolls too (for roadies back pockets)
