Very small compared to you all, but I’ve saved £6 and 240g by making my own peg bag to put my tarp bits and pieces in .

(The 240g includes buying titanium pegs and lighter guy lines, but the end result is 240g so I'll include it all!).

My partner is a popcorn maniac. Discovering it was easily made when out hiking was a great discovery for her . We simply make it inside a small Trangia kettle that she carries for the sole purpose of popcorn

We used a grill and always toast marshmallows, so the popcorn popper was just an afterthought. It is ideal for kids and makes a good cupful of popcorn so each kid can have a go. My kids are around 30, one’s a doctor but still loved the popcorn popping!

Nothing wrong with that!

@Norrland Just oil and popping corn in the covered pot over flame? Neat idea; will try! How’s the cleanup after?

Some ultra

Just on the gas stove or spirits. Cleanup is nonexistent hence why it is only used for popcorn

Hoodies.

Windish 10d Hoodie from some trial nylon.
Seems a very useful balance of both wind blocking and moisture easing.
