+johnnyspud Posted February 13, 2005 Share Posted February 13, 2005 Anyone know where I can find those personal first aid kids that came in a pocket sized plastic container? White, translucent, two piece plastic container, with a male/female sleeve - curved to fit in a hip pocket. Smaller than the decon boxes Anyone know where I can find these or actually, just the box? Not looking to use it as a cache, but they are sooo handy for carrying the little things that I'm always misplacing in the dark corners of my pack. Thanks. Quote Link to comment

+LthrWrk Posted February 13, 2005 Share Posted February 13, 2005 Here is a suggestion. I pick up small pouches, fanny packs and camara pouches for anywhere around $.50-$1.00 at thrift stores. In these I can put some of the smaller items. Separate bags for safety survival gear, snacks, whatever. I put a tag on them with a general idea of what it is for. These have the advantage of compressing to fit. And Cheap. Quote Link to comment
+kindstranger Posted February 14, 2005 Share Posted February 14, 2005 (edited) www.campmor.com They sell 'em. Coghlans makes the first aid kit. It's their part number 0002. www.coghlans.com Edited February 14, 2005 by kindstranger Quote Link to comment
+johnnyspud Posted February 14, 2005 Author Share Posted February 14, 2005 Yeah, that Coghlans #0002 is the one in that cool Coglans yellow. I checked Campmor before I posted here and couldn't find it. Searched again under first aid kit and Coghlans with no luck. I'll check garts and that Wally World if I get desperate. Thanks.

Sorry for that piece of bad info. Quote Link to comment

The problem with a rucksack is you usually have to dump everything out to find what you need. The "bag of bags" concept worked well to overcome the rucksacks shortcoming. I still use this method to keep from "over packing" my day pack. I just throw the bags I will need for a particular trip into my day and leave the rest home. The only thing I use I only use hard cases for stuff that could be damaged by crushing, they usually weigh more and don't conform to the space available as well as bags or pouches.
