Slightly odd number, I know, but I completely forgot at 1000 so thought may as well now! Now, on to the competition itself - bit of an odd one here, so hope it works.. You guess a country, any country in the world. Now, in the interests on fairness in respects to huge countries...

So in my area there is very little birch, and I finally managed to get hold of a small log, about 5 inches thick and a metre long or so.. I'd already done a bit with it, and decided I wanted a half decent project so decided on a ladle. I used about half of what was left with it, so a fair old...

Not mine but found this online, fantastic piece of work! http://imgur.com/von30Vu

So a tree fell on our phone lines in the storms so haven't had any internet for a week or so. Immensely frustrating! I can't be the one to have this happen??

As in the title, anyone recommend or have any comments about this? Cheers, Harry

This sounds like it could just be the most awesome thing of all time! http://www.theguardian.com/culture/2013/nov/19/onty-python-reunite-stage-show-comedy-holy-grail-palin-cleese

Up for swaps is a used pair of British military assualt boots in size 9. These have been fairly used, yet not excessively so. There is some wear on the toe area, but the rest of the boots are in good used condition. I have just given them a full clean, treatment with dubbin, and boot polish, and...

Makes me despair at humanity sometimes, £11,500 worth of rescue equipment stolen. http://news.stv.tv/highlands-islands/247424-mountain-rescue-equipment-worth-11500-stolen-from-glencoe-garage/

So I'm pretty much priced out of an actual anvil unfortunately, and I'm wondering what kind of alternatives are available? I went down to our local scrappy today and they had nothing by way or rail track or anything suitable really. Anyone know of where to get hold of some rail track perhaps...

This may seem like a stupid question, but I know little about the area other than the few trips I've had there, but what kind of wild camping is available in Snowdonia? What would be the best places etc? A friend and I are planning on going in February kind of time, would this be stupidly...

If anyone can help I'd be massively grateful! I'm looking for about a 2mm thick piece of brass, about an inch by an inch, suitable for a knife bolster. If anyone has a spare little square of brass like this kicking around I'd be very grateful! Or if anyone knows of somewhere where I could get...

......never cut metal with an angle grinder in flip-flops!! Lumps of burning hot metal between the toes never ends well!!

As in the title really, lets see your bedrolls! I'm looking to make a more traditional canvas and woolen blanket type bedroll and am looking for some inspiration, so if you've got one of these kinds of bedrolls I'd love to see them. Thanks :)

So i spent a while last week designing my own little friction folder, that bit of it is all sorted now though. What I was planning was to have the wooden scales with brass liners and with the area between the scales as brass too. My question is, when the knife is folded up what is there to stop...

Been getting back into the whole carving shenanigans lately and these are some of my latest creations - I've been trying to do as many different styles and types of all of them hence why they are all quite different. Bit nervous about loading these up so please be nice! Spoons: From left to...

Am looking to get some heavy duty canvas for a bedroll and such, anyone know of any good, cheap suppliers? Thanks!

I found it a couple of years ago but thought I'd post up on here now.. A friend of mine was having a wedding in the new forest and in the woodland nearby I just stumbled into this, quite literally! Asked the landowner if I could it have, which they said yes to and so now this is a bit of a...

I'm trying to find a name of a blog and the name has completely left me and I can't find it in my history. A large amount of the blog was around the building of a large wooden boat by hand; and down the right hand side was a link to some knives that he had made, and I think was selling? And...

So I'm thinking of going there this weekend, but the question is, is it worth the entrance fee? Is there much there? I've never been and can't seem to find much info on it, so any opinions from the bcuk collective would be great. Thanks :)
