pm sent with question
zing-it is what i use
cabelas and academy sports both carry it, at least my local ones do.
this might help too.

right now would be a great time to check out some of the really cool waterfalls in the area. the indian creek trail is one of my favorite day hikes,...
CLOSED TRADE HAS BEEN DONE
i am looking to trade an alcohol stove (or stoves?) for enough 1.75 lash-it, zing-it, or the equivalent to make a CRL for my extra tarp (plus maybe a little extra for...
shug put this up on a previous similar post.
have a good plan going into it, go slow, and if you start to get frustrated STOP!!! and cool off for awhile before you start back up.
hopefully there is no deadline that you have to meet, so take...

welcome from missouri!
those who dance are considered insane by those who cannot hear the music:lol:!!!
yep, they have done the same for me on some of my orders too!!!!
definitely a class act, i cant recommend them enough!! great stuff, great prices, and great service!
+1 on the poncho liner, cheap & way more comfortable than a pad in my opinion. Or a diy synthetic, I use a pluq or diy climashield apex 2.5 for the warmer hangs. But like the others have mentioned,...
welcome from southwest missouri:)!!
Same as stated before, i've been using 1.75 zingit on my setups for a few years and no problems so far.
great looking set-up!! you should be proud!! i have to agree, sewing the tarp can be a huge pita, and has been known to induce tourettes syndrome(at least in my house..lol). but you definitley nailed...
great pics!!! and it looks like it was a successful trip, both enjoyable and a learning experience. i always pick up a few more do's and do nots every time i go out but thats also one of the fun...
welcome from missouri!!!
Good looking u.q.!! i have nothing but good things to say about the APEX. its warm, light, and compresses really well for synthetic!
welcome from missouri!
+1 on the blackbird, i love mine!!
really nice looking quilt! i too am getting ready to start on one. i'm still in the thinking,planning,rethinking,changing my mind, staring at fabric,and planning some more stage.lol
i use one of these,http://www.tothewoods.net/HomemadeGearPackCoverGearHammock.html i needed a pack cover and this is dual purpose. also cheap and really easy to make. 2 birds with one stone:)
+1 on the climashield apex, i got mine from http://thru-hiker.com/materials/insulation.php i have used both the 2.5 and 5.0 in quilts and have been very happy with the results from both.
i agree!! i'm so glad i finally became a donating member. so much more information. so if anyone is on the fence about it, just do it, you wont be sorry.
+1 on the arrow shafts, i've also used a section of dowel, short stick, tent stake, and the spine side of small carabiners.
from what i hear its should be soon. sometime in the spring is what i have always heard. i recently picked up a few at bed bath and beyond with 19oz. of 600 fil, on sale for about $35. i was...
welcome!!! you wont be disappointed in WB!
1 more for the accu-rite, cheap and simple. i pulled the suction cup out and replaced it with a loop of cordage.
i've been using a stainless steel fishing leader, and tapering the ends.
about a half dozen orders from them and no problems. i'm guessing it picked up the odor somewhere in transit.
struug and Paulie your new stoves are on the way!! i hope you enjoy them:)
