DIY (sort of) Sandbags for Counterweight

Buying sandbags is probably the most boring thing next to manuals and paperclips. The worst part is buying online and paying for shipping, so I decided to buy them empty but realized that a heavy-duty sewing machine costs somewhere $200. And by heavy-duty materials I mean leather, denim, and of course cordura (what these sandbags are made from).

Here's my solution: Gorilla Glue ($8) and sand ($3) at Home Depot.
