Hi everybody!
I'm new here, and have an idea that needs approval from the HF Gods.
Here in a couple of weeks, my son and I have our first hang out, after years of sleeping on the ground.
I've been reading about CCF pads, and since we are on a tight budget, that's what well do for insulation.
My plans are to use snaps, which are cheap, and attach them to the sleeping bag, and the pad, so it doesn't roll out from underneath me. When its time to go, just simply unsnap, and roll separately.

Another way, is to use buttons, and sow them to the sleeping bag with strong string (leather string), and a long lead. Then make slots on the pad to feed them through, and turn them on the back locking them in. This way, the pad is always secured to the sleeping bag, with minimal weight. If side panels, or wings are desired, they can be cut to size, and snap or button as well.
I'm thinking this will eliminate having to sleep with the pad in the bag, which could create undesired sweat.
So, what do you think?
