One of these.

Can I please ask what your thoughts are about this tent? Could you get 2 people in it and does it stand up to the weather?

Thanks

Worked got rained off so I've spent the day, off and on, at my desk. Figured I needed one of these:

Nabbed it for £85 inc free P&P and I bought 20 grinding belts from another seller.

Should make making knife handles and such a whole lot faster, not to mention some more accurate grinding angles. Won't be picking it up until December when I'm in the UK next.

I will do, so far I'm finding the jumper to being doing exactly what it says on the tin.

I was actually excited about the wind and rain this morning. Kept the wind out and stood up to the rain. Although, I would not want to rely on it during a downpour, but it does cope well with light rain.
Its got patches on the shoulders, to reduce wear from pack straps. Patches on the elbows aswell.
I was only wearing a polo shirt under it this morning and it was enough to keep me warm in the morning chill.
Probably team it up with a dedicated base layer when it gets really cold.

So far I have no gripes, but will post a review in a couple of months afters a proper run in.
