The wife and I woke this morning and found that our RCD had died overnight, so one of us had to stay home. Seeing as my wife is nearly 26 weeks pregnant and will be taking a year off once she pops I decided I'd take a day off to play "see which electrician will actually turn up", but I digress.
After the sparky had done his thing and put in a new RCD, I decided to start playing with the cheap ($59AU) sleeping bag I'd purchased last night to use as an UQ.
It's a 190cmx75cm bag with a filling of "hollow fibre 200g/sm" and is rated for +6c (~43f for those who grew up with a strange system of measurement!) and weighs in at 1.2kg (I'm not a gram weenie ). It's also has two pretty shades of blue!
Don't laugh at my "test bed" so to speak. The bag is just tied on with some paracord and other rope I had handy so I could get an idea of what it would look like.
The biggest issue I can see is that the tie out points on my HH are going to be stuck under the UQ. I was thinking of putting some grommets in where the tie out points would be and running them through them. Any other suggestions?
I've also got to lower the head end a little bit so it's lower down and covers my feet just a little bit more.
Next is to make some triangles, probably out of amsteel as I've got 100ft of it sitting here from the group buy
