Sometimes you see something so awesome you just have to share it. These bags are one example. The most wicked thing I've seen to in a year for $60-80, these biker bags from Vaude Rucsacs are self-healing. That means if you're on the trail and you puncture them, they release plastic to self-repair on the spot like the human body...only much much faster.
I'm not much of a biker, but I love German technology. Personally I'm a big fan of leather or heavy weight cordura as I prefer my bags to be puncture resistant, over lighter-weight, but it's exciting to see different solutions to the same problem of making a durable bag. And the video is just awesome!
Happy Friday! May I have spread a little joy to your day!
So sometimes you see something so awesome, you just have to share it. This video of a new group working on printing 3D houses in roughly 20 hours (1 day). You want to blow your mind, watch this 12 minute video, especially the pictures at the end as it's being used currently in building structures on the MOON. Yes, I know it has NOTHING to do with textiles, but WOW. I feel like my very own Star Trek: Next Generation replicator is getting closer and closer. This looks like it's based off RIVET technology. Thank you NASA.
