Thanks for the help. DJ2 I read your lite weight pack frame and that's what got me started on making my own. I couldn't find a pack I thought was the right size to do both day hikes and overnite camping. But when I saw your packframe with the 3 different items all tied to it that's when it clicked. I can carry as much or as little as I need that way.
Gonna give it a try anyway and see how it goes.
