pattern, I'd not bother with trying to make my own! Didn't we have a
discussion about dipping cloth gloves into liquid latex to make
waterproof gloves at one point? Or was that on a more technically
oriented discussion list? 

I have PVC coated fish cleaning gloves and love 'em.  Have to find some
larger blue chemical gloves...sure I'd love 'em too.

On the subject of dipping gloves, my buddy Bob tried a new experiment
Monday night:  $10 neoprene gloves from Wal-Mart sprayed with
Plasti-Dip (the stuff you dip your tool handles in...also comes in a
spray can).

Made the nylon facing waterproof--sealed the seams--no evaporative
cooling and no leaks!!!
