Thank you both.

While I know how to turn a square tarp into a 3-sided tipi, I don't know (and can't find out) what size of square tarp is needed to form a tipi that stands 7' tall at its apex. Could some kind geometrically-minded soul help me out? Pointing me at the formula will do. TIA, Mark.

Has anyone tried contacting them lately? I've msgd re. the PK1, no reply.

Minus 33, all day. That and Weatherwool (££££!) is about the only wool that I can wear NTS.

Thanks, Jared, although in researching this, I've discovered the Dutch SS equivalent. I might be better off with those . . .

I asked for a total price for a set of mess tins sent to my address (Australia) and no reply. Are they actually trading? Anyone had dealings with them? Is Brexit to blame?

I was wondering if it would be difficult to make, given some basic metalworking skills and some basic tools/materials.

I'd found both of those, but they're fairly basic; no buying options etc. which the now-gone website did have. Maybe they're re-launching?

I'd searched Kickstarter and not found anything, but one of the entries refers to Jul '18, so I think you're right. They did have a website which I can't find now, which made me suspect they'd stopped trading. Mystery solved. TYVM.

Had another look; def. no vial present...I went for tritium specifically so I didn't have to use a torch. I thought the price was a little low. Not to worry, a PayPal claim is in train, and it may be an honest mistake by the seller... edit; the scale's in both mils and degrees. another edit...

I was under the impression that all such compasses (from Silva, anyway) bear the circular black/yellow 'radioactive' symbol on the front LH corner of the baseplate. I ask because I've been sold (for top dollar) a 54/360/6400 which was listed as 'tritium', but which bears no such symbol. The...

OK, thanks everyone.

I like the gloves too! What sort of boots are you wearing in the pics? I can see they're a 'ski-march' type, but what mfr.?

Greetings from sunny Australia:) There was a bloke who did similar work with coins at the Riverside Market in Brisbane in the 1980's...wasn't you, was it Cap'n?
