Down
I think this could be done, but it would be a lot of work and it might require a couple of practice pads to get it right. It seems to me that you would have to remove and modify the valve, and make...

Altimeter, thermometer
David, I did consider the Brunton ADC Pro and other similar devices. I'm not really interested in wind speed, and I'd like to find something a little smaller if possible (watch-sized, ideal...

Clamping
Zach, I dispense the Hysol by pushing the glue out of each tube with a dowel marked with gradations so I can get the same amount out of each one, usually. If I only need a very small amount, I draw...

Pole
When I was young, I successfully caught trout by doing what you suggest: cutting a branch (or finding a fallen one) and tying line to it. Those branches were never an ideal fishing pole in any sens...

Tarp

Connector for using tarp poles as fishing pole
I'm making a Hexamid Twin (pieces and guidance from Joe Valesko), and I'll be using a modified GG LT4 and a 32", 0.420" diameter carbon tube from Josh Leavitt for the poles. I wan...
