Do people have preferred guides, or other recipes for frame bags?
I want to make one for my 29" HT, and at the moment my biggest problem is I have found so many different resources for it, and don't really know if any are better or worse.

I started off with this video

I just watched it again and still, after six selfmade framebags I still think it displays the process well. Stick roughly to it and you'll be fine.

I recently bought one of these: http://www.singerco.com/products/2118/4411-heavy-duty

Been really happy with it. Not particularly tested the 'heavy duty' aspect yet, but it certainly looks and feels like it'll do the job.
