    Although I now live on the mainland, I lived on the Isle of Wight all my life til I went to Uni 6 years ago and have been back there every summer. There are many places to camp and if you choose the correct site you can have a fire too. Compton bay farm didnt mind when we were there last year...

    Tired of epoxy glue

    What epoxy are you having trouble with? Using 2-ton (which you may have read before is my favourite for oh so many reasons) I have never had any troubles. Get some little scales from ebay and measure it by weight before mixing, it is alot easier than guessing volumes.

    thinning Two part epoxy

    I would recommend popping to your local boatyard (or kitcar manufacturer :D ) and asking for some polyester resin (boatbuilding epoxy as they said above). It is pretty runny and should give a longer working time than epoxy, so long as you dont use too much catalyst (depending on resin <2&#37; by...

    Anyone made there own tarp?

    My tarp is a homemade affair and rather heavy.... it was free though. If you want a cheap (funny shaped) tarp go to your local sailing club and ask for any old sails they have - if there are competitive people they will change their sails every couple of years, or sooner if very competitive. Get...

    Sharing of tool/kit designs

    Cheers for the input Red, it is nice to hear your happy to share and share alike design wise. Also I fully understand the trouble finding good axe makers, try finding someone who can forge you rear helper springs for a 35 year old car - both almost impossible tasks. And Mikey, yeah licensing...

    Sharing of tool/kit designs

    Since reading British Reds group buy for the Red Hunter made by Cegga I have had a bit of a silly idea. Here it is... To avoid massive demand for the product could he make the design publically available on a "use it and pay a fee", say £10 for every axe you make/have made (£5 to British Red...

    Hydration pack or water bottle?

    I own two camelbaks, both bought for cycling, but I find them invaluable when out in the woods and hiking. Both bladders are transparent and it is easy to see how much water you have left because they sit in separate compartments to the rest of the bag and one open of a zip and the bladder is on...

    My 12cm just arrived. This is the best bit of kit I have ever bought, and cheap as chips thanks to evil-bay. Time to save for a 16cm one now I think, and maybe one for the back of the car and one for.........
