Bob, referring to a baking tin windscreen with bottom + sides

nice job Ray, going to try foamboard
Nice job Ray. I just remembered that we have some squares of foamboard wrapped in reflective mylar that we used to use to block of light from small windows in a room in our old office. I'm go...

sounds interesting
Lori that sounds interesting. I have been thinking that if we go with a quilt for 3 seasons, we'll do best with one that has a breathable fabric back, like the Catabatic. I'm just startin...

may weight the 3 ply base and see what it comes out to
I may experiment with the 3 ply and see what the square just large enough to support the stove weighs - the 2 x 4 ft. sheet was only $5, and I could always use the scraps for other projects. Ano...

I've used my Montane Lite-Speed in almost all conditions. The fit is quite good, with plenty of room to layer underneath, without being way too big. I'm 6 ft 180lbs, 42 chest and I do fine with the ...
