Map Book Case:




Sand Stake:

Made a batch of double layer Faraday pouches, mostly for cell phones so they don't interfere with avalanche transceivers, but could be used for push button start key fobs on a shuttle so you can lock the fob in the vehicle. Or you just use a couple layers of tinfoil? Faraday material was a PITA to work with, very thin and the edges frayed easily.

I am selfishly giving these to my backcountry ski buddies...
