    Does anyone need any of this stuff: http://www.macculloch-wallis.co.uk/Product.aspx/Gutermann!72722 Apparently its the bees knees for things like Tarps, Hammocks, and general MYOG due to its strength. If we can get enough together for a couple of boxes it'll make it worth while. £3.25...

    Exped Downmat 7 DLX (LW) Repair

    Hi guys, Does anyone know of a company in the UK that can repair the Exped Downmat & LW? The problem is not 'user repairable' as a weld seems to have blown (see the attached image). I've tried Google, but with no joy. Surely there must be somewhere in the UK that can do high frequency welding?!
