Description

The aim of this tutorial is to show the steps involved in producing a prototype thermal curtain.

Sommaire

---

Introduction

Insulating curtains are essential accessories for the home, for nomads in a van, converted lorry or camper van.

They protect your home on wheels from the cold in winter and the heat in summer.

Matériaux

• Blue part of the mask :

- Waterproof

• Inter-layer part of the mask (white part) :

- Contains polypropylene (High durability - excellent insulation - recyclable ...)

• Empty packet of crisps (contains aluminium):

- Heat-reflecting layer

• Sponge:

- To separate showers from aluminium, to create a gap between two layers of aluminium to increase thermal insulation (R-value).

• Cartoon:

- More specifically, in the areas where the stitching runs, so that the two layers of aluminium don't stick together, thus avoiding heat transmission.

Outils

Scissors, needle thread (many), stapler

Étape 1 - material preparation

Étape 2 - material assembly

from outside to inside:

• Overlay 4 layers of the blue part of the mask.

• Overlay 4 layers of the part in the middle of the mask (white-poplypropylene part).

• Add a layer of the extended chip package (reflective layer).

• Glue the rough part of the sponge previously cut into pieces.

• Glue pieces of card on the lines where the seam will be made.

• Mettre l'autre couche de l'aluminium (pour réfléchir la chaleur qui est à l'intérieur).
• Superposer 2 couches du tissu de polypropylène.

Étape 3 - Sewing

Sew!

As simple as that!

....Not really

it'll be easier if we use a sewing machine.
