    Sold - DIY Synthetic UQ

    Trying to thin out the closet. This is one of those pieces of gear I don't ever use anymore, so it's time to pass it on to someone else.

    This was a quilt I made a while back, based loosely off of the KAQ DIY directions, and a few other ideas that were floating around on the forums at the time. Here's the thread where I posted specs and pictures once it was finished:

    Original DIY Thread with Pics

    Dimensions and design are almost exactly like what AHE now sells as the Jarbidge - though I made this a year or two before that was available. I used one layer of Climashield 6.0 (regular HL, NOT apex), and 1.1oz olive green ripstop. Each long side has corner tie outs, and three additional loops to allow for tinkering with how you decide to hang it.

    42" x 60". 3D box Construction to keep insulation from being compressed. Finished weight is a hair over 18oz in stuff sack. I don't know exactly what temp this would get you down to as I've never tested its low end, but based off of specs at the time for Climashield 6.0, I'd be confident saying 40˚, possibly mid-high 30's.

    I got a HG down UQ right before my first hang, so I loaned this out to another newbie that weekend. I then used it one more time, a few summers ago. So it's seen maybe 3-4 nights' use, and no trail time. Otherwise stored uncompressed, hanging in a closet. Let me know if you have additional questions.

    $65 shipped CONUS, with stuff sack, no suspension included. SOLD

    Or:

    $75 shipped if you need or want suspension, and I have a set of DIY UQ Triangle Thingies (made to the same dimensions as the real ones) that I will include. SOLD

    Are there any updated photos?
    I'm really interested.... But just need to know the current/updated condition of the quilt.

    Any shift of filling? Stitching still sound?
    How thick is it at the moment (Lost any loft?)

    Could you ship it in a box? How big would the box be/weigh?
    I'm overseas so i'd get you to send it to a place in Sarasota, FL From there they'll ship it for me to Taiwan.
