I don't know if they can be found everywhere, but I've seen them at my local store.
I'm usually not out for more than a weekend, so I just use water and don't bother with toothpaste. There's less to carry, and I can brush right before bed and not have to worry about hanging my...
If you're still concerned, use grain alcohol. It's more expensive, but multi-use.
I've heard that it's the roomiest bivy, but probably the only way to know for sure is to make one out of some cheap material and try it yourself. Maybe an old bedsheet...
Get them while you can. Word is, they've been discontinued and are replaced with standard looking cans. I haven't found any of the old ones around here.
Tomato powder: I know I can order it online, but could I get a can of tomato sauce from the grocery store and dehydrate it, and then throw it in a blender? Would that give the same result?
I just finished my UQ and weighed everything together. Everything that I need to hang, except for a top quilt, is 44.9oz.
I haven't slept in my hammock yet, as I'm still putting it together. I originally thought that hammocks were both heavy and expensive, but if you're into making stuff yourself, the hammock can be...
Water keeps the plastic holder from melting.
Thanks for the reply, Tinker. Good to know that 6 inches works for you. Now on the other hand, I recently found a post on BPL where Ron Bell himself recommends an 8" neck.
...
The issue isn't fitting MY neck. There has to be enough material there to be able to seal up the hole in tarp mode to prevent leaks.
I found out that on a Golite poncho tarp the length between...
Thanks, I'm roughly following Roy Robinson's design and I wanted to see if the 6 inches or (after seams) that he recommends is enough, when compared to commercial versions.
The problem is that cheap ponchos are not intended to be used as tarps so the neck section would probably be much shorter than I would need it to be.
I'm just about to finish my poncho tarp, that is, when I get the nerve to cut a big head hole in the nice tarp I've made.
Anyway, I've never seen a commercial poncho tarp up close. When I make...
Doesn't get much simpler than this.

Though it's not extremely close to Allentown (maybe less than 2 hours), You should definitely check out Campmor in Paramus, NJ.
I'm pretty sure lighter fluid = naptha = white gas
I used a section cut out of an aluminum beer bottle. It fit perfectly.
Yes, I filed mine down too. It still works fine on regular cans.
Looks good! Any comments on hole sizes and spacing?
I think that's an older revision than GG used to have on their site, though I don't know what's different.
I think I have both the Henley and the G4 instructions saved somewhere. I'll have to...
I have a Sansa Clip. It weighs less than an ounce, and the battery lasts forever. The Clip + would be a good choice, I think.
Contact Bender from http://kookabay.com and see if he can do a custom size.
I thought that Triptease wasn't recommended for bear bagging, because the sheath is quite abrasive.
The original Jerry chair is not that much different from yours, though probably quite a bit easier to put together in the field.
It weighs 2.17 oz made of less than a yard of $1.50 coated ripstop...
