I know this is an older post but I'm just starting to make packs so I have some questions that I'd appreciate help with. Can you share what you used for the "plastic frame sheet" and the foam and were you sourced them? And are the frame sheet and the foam sewn in or removable? What thread did...

About 15 year ago I bought a great big 18' Grumman from an estate auction that came on a homemade trailer and had a 1.5 hp Johnson motor, partial sailing rig and a rowing rig similar to this one: I didn't row it much but when I did it would sure move right along considering how big and heavy...

Maybe it was the ever desirable alsg NYETI.... Lance

Beautiful canoe, beautiful lake and a comfortable campsite. What else would you need? Welcome to the land of the living from North Carolina! Lance

He already hinted at that..... he drank Bud Lite......

And we're talking about any kind of Bud and beer in the same conversation..... why? Mike, given that Rosie never met a bear (or likely never dreamt of a bear) she didn't want to dance with she'd likely get along fine with Precious. But if they tag-team a bear you get to explain any new scuffs...

Bill, do you have any pictures of how the suspension and harness are attached to that Ostrom pack? I really like the idea of pair bags whether side zip duffel style or some variant of roll or fold over top bag. Best regards, Lance

If your wallet can stand the prices Duluth has several packs with side and rear pockets. And although I know nothing about them this outfit makes a couple sizes of cane bags.... Chinook chemun https://www.ebay.com/itm/123933123718?hash=item1cdafd6486:g:pOEAAOSw-zhdnN2A Lastly, I think Mike...

Welcome from Pinnacle, North Carolina. Lance

And most of the ones with steel fire rings are pretty near to useless, too. Surprisingly after I showed Nancy the pictures from sweetfancymoses she commented on the usefulness of a dry laid fire pit. Hmmm...... I suspect that a load of stone from one of the local granite quarries is in...

I know that this is an older thread but I prefer to add to existing threads rather than start new ones on the same or very similar topis. To add to the info here about poles here are a couple of resources for making custom poles and sets: questoutfitters.com/ https://tentpoletechnologies.com...

Doesn't he have to step on a pop-top first? Every now and then I still find one of those stirred up by a recent rain while picking up trash along trails. Lance

I'm glad it finally got there, Oliver and I hope you get a lot of opportunity to use it. That bread looks darn good! And it looks like there's room in there for another small pan. I'm jealous of your fire pit. About the time I finished building our fire pit this spring (complete with my...

Welcome from Pinnacle, NC. We've had messages between us over on BCUSA. How are things going now that you've had a year to settle in? Lance

OK, I have to confess that I've been a bad, bad boy. I should have finished the reflector oven months ago for Oliver (AKA sweetfancymoses) but I finally finished it this week. As stated way back in the thread we decided to knock roughly an inch off the length of my original oven. The only...

Glenn, the first three messages went into the spam folder. Each time I selected "Not Spam" and it finally seems to have taken as I just got a fourth message and it went to the inbox. Lance

The incoming private message alert went into the spam folder again......

Good morning, Glenn I had two private message emails go into the spam folder in Firefox. I replied to one of them directly in hopes that it would keep Firefox (or Norton?) from tossing them overboard in the future. I'll send a message to the original communicant asking for a reply to see what...

Nice report of a good trip. Thanks. Lance

Thanks, Robin Interesting website for sure. At those prices I think I'll order a tent and a hammock set just to see if they are something to recommend to the local scout troops I work with. They sure seem budget friendly anyway. EDIT: They have a YouTube site with a few videos, too...
