Just looked at some of the prices for these generators and I am amazed how expensive they are. So definitely beyond my price range, well the more practical sizes anyway. Thanks for the replies

I hope this is the right section. Any body tried a solar generator, if so what do you think. I have been looking at a small one just to keep gadgets charged. Jackery, Ecoflow and Bluetti spring to mind, around 300 watt ac outputs.

Many thanks, will probably look for gas heaters.

Looking for a cheap non electric shed heater, any suggestions out there.

Having delved into the subject a bit more I think I`ll just wrap in kitchen foil, which does seem to block mobile phone signals.

I thought it was a frequency thing. I see some homemade cages on ytube so thought I would give it a try. Only tin I had was an old bread tin. I might try an old ammo tin which will probably seal better as the lid pulls down tight. And the bread was gobbled up a long time ago !!!!

Just knocked up a faraday cage from an old metal bread tin. Made the lid a good fit and managed to get an electrical fit, and the tin conducts current all round. Now whilst it seems to block mobile phone signals it does not block 2 way radios. I assume there is a good technical reason for this...

I purchased a Kobun during the first lockdown. I quite fancied the look of the knife. Very pleased with the knife, as I have small hands it seemed to suit well. A very light tool and quite sharp out of the box, but not a razor. Tried it in the kitchen and slices pretty well. All in all a fair...

Really fancy a multi shot crossbow, but seem very expensive.

Has anybody watched this channel on Youtube. Just found it a couple of days ago. I think he is German. Some of the inventions are really mad, but he is a clever chap.

Sheath just arrived, very pleased.

Many thanks.

Been looking for a while for a kydex sheath for my Falkniven F1. Plenty in the States but I cannot see any suppliers in Uk. Can anyone put me onto a supplier trade or private. Thanks.

Just a few of the sheaths I cobbled together during lockdown.
