    Waxed swedish snow smock with special addition..

    Finished waterproofing my snow smock and added the final touch with a leather panel
    produced by an excellent fellow bushcrafter, Biker-bri.

    Was very touched and chuffed when I saw this, and couldn't think of a better place to put it
    than on a bit of kit I use every time I'm in the woods for everyone to see.
    Many thanks Brian. Hope one day I may achieve some semblance of your leather working skill.

    Woodsman.

    How did the waxing hold up in the recent weather, is it a worthwhile mod for the SSS? Any problems with the wax rubbing off onto the clothes underneath?
