Well, oops. Ask questions BEFORE you buy. That way you don't make a mistake like you just did.

I also live in St. Louis. I haven't found any since the one i bought 4 months ago. I find them in Walmart's in Illinois, just across the river. In fact there were 7 in one walmart, atr full price...
I am looking to buy a pre-made underquilt shell, minus the down (which i already have) and suspension. I have tried UnderQuilts.com and they're paypal doesn't work. Thanks.:rolleyes:

I think it's the same one i'm looking at getting on ebay. Check out some of the forum posts on goose down recently. 750 is considered very good down. Most down items are in the 750 range, only the...
Thanks, much appreciated. Yeah, i'm hoping to make an UQ and a TQ out of the down i'm going to buy. If you're willing to be careful and spend the time to do it right, i don't think taking the down...
Thanks for all the advice. I've got material for a down TQ and UQ, minus the down. Weighing the pro's and con's of buying from ebay vs buying from one of the vendors mentioned. I don't mind the...
Thanks, I've checked it out and i'm interested. I wonder what the down FP is on these pillows. How much down did you get for each pillow? I'm not interested in premium down or high FP down. I can...
Has anyone either bought these down pillows or have bought from the sellers (ebay)? I am considering buying some from them. I know some pillows have feathers in the center of the pillows and...
This seems to be an even better source of down. http://www.ebay.com/itm/750-Fill-Power-FP-Egyptian-Cotton-White-Goose-Down-Pillow-s-King-/390896635850?pt=US_Pillows&var=&hash=item5b03414fca king...
Thanks for all the reply's. I see many posts on down, and no explanations on the actual difference. I was looking at some down online, and don't want to make a purchase I'll regret. I am going to...
What's the difference between 550 FP down and 700+ FP down? Besides the minor difference in weight. I know that it takes more 550 to keep you warm. Does it mean there will be more feathers? ...
Starting on my own UQ and TQ with Climashield 5.0 and Maxima ESD from DIYgearsupply. I will have a zippered footbox. It will be 84x58 roughly. Just a rectangle for the TQ is best and easiest. ...
They don't advertise this. You have to call them. Also, they require a minimum order of 10 yards.
Just did a google search for "Noah Lamport" and got their phone number off their website. Called them and asked what colors of 1.1 silnylon ripstop they had (they called it silicone when i was...
Opps, $93...so 72 for material, plus $5 cutting fee, then 16 for shipping (I specifically asked for it to be "off the roll"). Shipping seems high, but still worth it. I pay $12 shipping at...
Just ordered some silnylon, 12 yds black, 12 yds grey from them @ $3 a yard, off the roll (of course)...OMG, so much cheaper than any other supplier. Came to $96 dollars. These guys at NL's rock! ...
I LOVE the idea, but the expense...well, I don't need gold-plated equipment. I'll wait until cuben goes down in price. W/B Cuben at $30 for 1/2 yard. I don't have to have the most expensive...
I'm going to start on my first top quilt and under quilt soon. Maxima ESD (12 yards, for the quilt and a little extra for something else), and 4 yards of Climashield APEX. for a 55 x 80 TQ and a 48...
I'm getting ready to buy material for my first synthetic TQ and UQ then i saw this and wondered. I'll use Climashield APEX. I like Down, but there really is only a small size difference (i'm not a...
Would Maxima ESD fabric on sale at http://diygearsupply.com/product/maxima-esd/ be useful in making my first quilt. I know it is heavier than 1.1 ripstop, but it seems much more durable, since i...
What do you folks think about

Since the last post on this thread was in early 2013, how do you rate the down from the OnlineFabricStore that several of you mentioned? Online, they don't give the fill power of the down. Were you...
I will be starting my own DIY bridge hammock this summer, and will be using your instructions. Thank you for taking the time to make them. As i am a big man, 275 pounds and 6'2, i will be making...
Hi folks, im 6 feet tall and weigh 270, but so far I've only seen Bridge Hammocks with a top weight limit of 250. Are there any? I might have to make my own or have one made for me. Thanks.
Hey folks,
I'm going to buy another hammock, a double layer one. Which ones are double layer? Eno Doublenest is on my short list, but it isn't a double layer from what i read. It has extra...

I think it's a useful idea, since i car-camp about 50% of the time anyway. Weight isn't a factor when i car camp. Sure, it would add weight. Compared to down, how heavy would a small fleece...
Ahhh, well i guess I'll have to remedy that. ;)

Hi, i get this message "you do not have permission to access this page". What does this mean? Is it because i haven't posted many comments or reached a certain minimum number? Thanks
Thanks guys, I'll make the extender. I just bought some of that silicone sealer from amazon and I'll put it on the seams of my GG tarp. Shug's videos are awesome! I'm going to do a dry run in my...
Hi folks, I just invested in a hammock and some other equipment. I would be thankful if you all can tell me what else I might need, or where I can improve my setup:

I just bought 9 yards of ripstop nylon 1.1 (i think, i'll weight it soon, just to be sure) for 4.99 with a 40% discount. That's pretty cheap, alot cheaper than any of the DIY fabric sites listed on...
