Trash Pända

If you're like me, you spend a lot of time outdoors — multi-day hikes, long days in the wild — and you've never found a good trash solution. Nobody admits it, but a lot of us just use plastic bags. I'd knot one to my pack or stuff it in a side pocket, and it'd tear or leak inside my backpack every time.

So I made the Trash Pända. And yes — if you look at it and think "that's just two clips merged together," you're absolutely right. If you then think "I could make that myself," awesome — that's exactly how I started. I prototyped a version for myself on a 3D printer, took it into the wild, and was amazed how versatile it was.

This is a small batch from a small business. Buy one and you're getting one of the first Trash Pändas — and helping me make a bigger batch, improve the design, and bring the price down. I've got a few more outdoor ideas brewing too: electricity-free shoe drying, an interactive packing list, the right cutting board. More to come.

And because I really am one of you: the files are on Gumroad. Print them in whatever you've got and they'll work fine. If you want one in PA11 that'll outlast your boots, that's what's in the shop — that's what you get from me. Grabbing the files is just a small "support the project" price, and it helps fund the next batch and the gadgets coming after it.
