    DIY mummy bag to UQ help

    A friend of mine has a nice military surplus mummy bag. Hes looking to convert it to an UQ.

    I feel like I remember seeing a thread on exactly that but my searching is coming up null.

    Can anyone point me (us) in the right direction? Thanks for your help.

    'Advanced search' is your friend.
    These should be a start, though not exactly what you are asking about ?

    BTW, when I was a kid in CubScouts (in the 1950s) I spent a few nights in a military 'down' sleeping bag - smelly and heavy! Never again!
    I also (helped my wife when she) built a couple of Frostline down sleeping bags in the 70s - it's a lot of work. I'll leave the down work to real enthusiasts nowadays.
