I got the frame for one at a garage sale a while back because I had the pack somewhere.
Now the pack was found after my mother cleaned out the closet that I didn't put the pack in.
Wtf? I suppose someone put it away for me.

Anyway, I have no idea how to hook up the bottom straps, I looked online but could only find ways on how to install the damn thing for 1/6th scale models.

Help?

The Pack definitely has seen better days, some pockets are torn and some edges are frayed. Nothing a bit of sewing can't fix but... how do you do that with nylon or whatever material this is?

Nylon generally has glue-on patches, I think, kind of like vinyl. If you've ever repaired a tire tube or a pool inflatable, it's similar.

I have no idea how to strap it in though. I've never dealt with one.

Ah... hmm, what places would have that?
Fabric shops or something?

Anything from a fabric shop to a Wal-Mart. At least, I'd assume Wal-Mart would have it. I think that's where my mom gets hers.

I think I figured it out.
Fed the straps for the bag through the holes on the bottom of the frame and fed the strap on the left through the left shoulder loop and the opposite on the opposite.

Seems to work fine so that's probably how it goes or at least how it might go.
Did a bit of a function test, straps loosen and tighten, bags not falling off.
I didn't put anything in the pack yet but I think it'll hold.

Yeah, walmart might have them, mother said a fabric store would more than likely have them.

Yeah, but if your area is anything like mine, anything more specific than Wal-Mart has to be searched for.
