    Default Does any one make dyneema "cubes" besides HMG?

    Thinking a med-large in the semi transparent dyneema would be great for a food sack...
    one could see the contents, smaller items and would be easier to pack/unpack
    thanks guys

    I did get a cuban stuff sack and a role top dry bag from zpack. They did take a lot of wear and had holes in it about 1/2 my Harper's Ferry. It was strings in sections by Maine. I don't think thinner material would be a good choice.

    The cubes from HMG aren't very transparent. I find the main advantage of a cube is the zipper, which allows me to open it flat and find anything in there easily. It also allows the cube contents to be organized when it's relatively full, where items in a stuff sack would just be jumbled.

    And to answer your question, HMG's are the only one's I've found so far.

    Superior Wilderness Design makes something like this, though they are not transparent. I have two.
