I was surfing ebay, looking for prices of body heater suits (or whatever they are called) and stumbled across this:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290331231465
Looks pretty neat for the price. I ordered one and if I like it, I am going to order another one or two, Lord willing. So, don't order them all!!!

Why not make one to go up to your armpits?

looks like to much work to me! When cold weather gets here, I always carry coat and coveralls with to the stand. I do not put them on until I get in the stand. It would be much easier to put this "blanket" on then coveralls. Plus, having all of your legs and feet in a "bag" would keep them much warmer than coveralls. Back in the day, when I couldn't afford coveralls - I used to carry a sleeping bag to the stand. When I got in my stand, I would slip in the sleeping bag up to my waist to keep me warm.
I don't think I would like it up to my armpits...I would feel claustraphobic (sp.). I'd rather wear my coat for warmth up top. But, that's just me. I'll test the thing out and let you know how it works.

Had a guy tell me one time to carry a sleeping bag one time. That looks like it would work.

Go to Wal-mart and buy their cheapest sleeping bag....in a green or brown, if they have it......they are very lightweight and come in their own carry sack.
You would be surprised how warm even a lightweight sleeping bag can be. the biggest thing is knocking the wind off you and keeping your body heat concentrated around you....
actually, they also have at Wal-mart a car blanket that's actually a blanket made into a sleeping bag.....very small, but does help keep the wind off.
works well......
