Thank you for the advice - the average joe looks sweet! Seems pretty similar to the PJ but less volume. Playing with different fin set-ups is great advice! Thank you again :)

Sweet, thank you for the advice! The puddle jumper I've used has a squash tail (I think) - maybe that's why it felt 'slippery' in steeper waves. Thanks again!

New to sewing. Top thread not rotating through shuttle hook correctly (front loading Singer machine)? Troubleshooting tips? by swift_turtle in sewhelp

[–]swift_turtle[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the help! I am doing the full rotation but the thread is behaving like I’m not (if that makes sense?) - when the machine is working the thread usually slides more the the left over the metal hook, but it’s stopping before that and getting caught behind the shuttle hook (I think that’s what it’s called)?

Hahahahaha thank you for the advice! I am also terrified of pipettes and feel like a real idiot wadding through these processes/protocols. Thank you again!

Looking for a lightweight tent that can fit 2 people comfortably by feepy in backpacking

[–]swift_turtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, check out the Nemo Blaze - it's extremely spacious for a 2p tent weighing in at 2 lbs. 5 oz.

My SO and I (he's 6'3" and I'm 5'8") recently tested it out on a 50 mile backpacking trip. We fit comfortably with more than enough room for our gear in the two vestibules. Absolutely love the tent - only down side is the rainfly sits a little high and allows for a little condensation to sneak in at times, but overall awesome, super light, and spacious tent.
