Poncho multi uses

I have been looking at the german rubberised poncho which is pretty much 100% waterproof and is pretty fire resistant and tough

Features:

-Drawstring on hood

-8 eyelets with cords on corners for tying down

-8 press studs 

Uses:

-Poncho

-Emergency sleeping bag cover- make into tube

-shelter/ tent- join two ponchos together with press studs

-bivi

-ground sheet

-tarp
-rain catcher

Macgyered sleeping bag goes inside poncho from blanket and space blanket 

WWII navy blanket, folded it in half and then sewed it across the bottom and 3/4 of the way up the side. I then took a space blanket, folded it over and taped it together (totally waterproof). Putting the wool blanket inside the space blanket makes for a decent sleeping bag and keeps out moisture from the ground.
