Replaced the ruff on my M65 Parka

[Twodogs]

Not long ago I brought a M65 Parka off ebay with a set of overwhites,
I do like the parka but didnt like the synthetic ruff that it came with yuck ,, after a bit of looking about I found that the early parkas had a coyote fur ruff ,,, nice ,


So many hours later and very sore fingers here it is now ,

Us bushcrafters sure do have a perverse idea of what fun is

[southey]

Oooof that looks snuggy!! now for the snow!

[sasquatch]

Looks great Cliff, just the thing for cold weather. Did you sew it straight on or is it possible to remove it? Might have to source some coyote and have a go at my mothership jacket this autumn now...

[Twodogs]

I put it straight on but can remove the hood

[Dannytsg]

Very nice work. You wouldn't even know from looking at it that you had altered it.

[Andy BB]

Oh very nice! did you remove the wire?

[Twodogs]

No mate left it in for my needs , removing it is easy to do though

[addo]

Great job mate, but your looking a little deflated there in the jacket.
Get that dutch oven out dude!

[vizsla]

Very nice mate im planning on doing similar to my field jacket come winter.
Gota love the m65

[Dreadhead]

nice one i can imagine how much of a pain in the rear that must have been to sew on looks great. no furry pompoms though?!?!?

[nolightweight]

Top job, mate.

[lou1661]

[southey]

AHHHhhh Ice Station Zebra! there is another dvd to dig out of the cupboard

[ex-member Raikey]

oooh i like it!,...

[Biker]

Now that's pretty. Coyote eh? ... I wonder if Labrador would work as well? Oscar's using his right now.

I can see me adding a fur ruff to my Swedish Snow smock once I've finished pimping it... I have yet to start it truth be told.

Very well done!!

[MartinK9]

Nicely done Cliff.

[Karl82]

Nice work Cliff!

My fingers found it hard going too, they work a treat though.

[Shambling Shaman]

Very nice work. You wouldn't even know from looking at it that you had altered it.
