Re: Zip Repair

The zips are properly fecked, my fault for using the waterproofs on the sea and the salt has done the damage. I thought Nordy's gimp mask came with a warranty attached to his entire dungeon? If the zip coil/teeth are plastic and it's just the slider that's corroded, it's pretty easy to replace the ...

Faulty Katadyn Befree filter?

Was out last week and filtered some water from a stream with my Katadyn Befree filter to refill my water bottle. Next day felt mildly unwell.

Re: Like a lanshan 1 but cheaper?

It appears that the ebay link is simply for a mesh inner ... no outer mentioned from what I can see. (I know there's a picture but I believe that is simply to demonstrate what it may look like in place) No, that is the whole tent, outer and inner, although it's not a 3FUL branded one so I'm not sur...

Re: Etrex Stem Mount

Interested in that Amazon kit. My DIY effort, (v similar to Javatime’s) has worked well but now, after a good few hundred bumpy miles, the female stem-top bracket has failed. It may be down to a poor quality bracket but I’ve always thought the extra height of my DIY gizmo was likely to increase lev...
