"if you're not always prepared, you're never prepared." the only necessary urban edc survival kit is a credit card and a smile. (And a smartphone that you buy with your credit card.) But that's no fun, is it? Fee image hosting is too much to find on a Friday evening. Words only: Ti peanut...

I like my alpaca socks. My alpaca sweaters wear out too soon. Without some synthetic fiber in the mix, the alpaca yarn falls apart. Not dissing the idea of an alpaca liner, but try this: Merino wool liner.

I use one of these, not necessarily from the linked manufacturer. I add a couple of 2m buckle straps sometimes. Small critter-proof, toss something waterproof over it if rain is likely, wash out every year or so.

Thanks for the link. Imgur for the future.

Scaled down to 640 px wide from 4,000. It's been through a few dips in de-rust solution over the decades. Note the barbs. This is three plies of barbed ribbon twisted together. Current Gigli/dehorning saws are various gauges of round wire woven together. Sharp tooth >> round bump.

Thanks for your reply. I thought I was a member, but nobody told me there was a secret handshake. I tried the little postcard. That's what rejected my URLs. I've been searching this site for photo upload rules, "640x480 jpg under 10 kB", or whatever. Photobucket put up a paywall. I left...

Thank you all for your responses. I have photos but B-IK isn't accepting my URLs for them. Text replies follow. Will post my pics when I figure out the tech. I have always carried the little coil saw only to prepare splints for wilderness first aid. Dead and down wood for fires requires only...

If you are a couple, see item 23 about snoring and flatulence. We don't want to hear the beast with two backs. Items 4 and 17 are the same. Items 5 and 20 are the same. Items 15, 24, and 33 are one item. Item 32 applies _everywhere_. _Anyone_ can halt activity on a safety concern, rank or...

I discovered "Burying beetles" this weekend. Don't know how they made their living before... Those little critters made the cathole a quivering, undulating, nightmarish sight. I don't worry anymore about nature dealing with feces.

Today's wire saws are rebranded Gigli surgical saws. Gigli saws are used to cut skullbone for brain surgery. They comprise three or four stainless steel wires wrapped and woven. They are easy to sterilize. They cut thin bone cleanly enough for surgery. They are mass produced and are therefore...

Greetings all, We all enjoy building kits. Do you folk on the Island really ever need a psk? I'm a bloody colonial. There are very few spots in the continental US where a PSK is of any use. Northern Canada, defined as away from the cities, Alaska, maybe. I'm not disrespecting PSKs. I just think...

Greetings, Cold-camping is well-covered here. In-camp footwear is well-covered here. My question is specific to my experience last weekend. Solo camp in remote forest. Overnight temperature -10C. More-than-adequate hammock/underquilt/bag system. Tarp prevented overnight first-snowfall from...

Silly question, but are you very sure your handwear fits properly? I like glove-mitts with a liner. However, if the liner is too thick it blocks circulation. Dachstein, yes, I love mine with Aleut-made (hand-me-down) leather cover mitts. Mitts and dexterity don't play well together, as you...

Greetings, I was faced with two problems today. One problem was an untidy pile of my daughter's old nylon hose and tights, all with runs, that I saved over the years "because I might find a use for them someday." The other problem was a camo net and a couple of scrim scarves that wouldn't stay...

...Started to snip but entire post is valuable. ... "bad quality". Translation issue? ="rotting"? We don't like that song from the 80s? Ugly fish? Honor the old folks knowledge. (Except when they are wrong.)

I'm reading _While the Billy Boils_ by Harry Lawson. It has the same flavor as Rawhide Rawlins, who lived and wrote in my patch. The Graves' books are superb. How many lives did they save? http://gen.lib.rus.ec has a bad copy. (Thought just occurred: what training did that one Japanese...

Drawing moisture is good. I made a vinegar brine. My observation is that drawig moisture before the brine will cause the meat to draw the acid in. Flavor would be a welcome side effect. Salt-drying preserves meat. It also is boring, tastes too salty, and annoys my physician. Acid denaturation...

All that. I sealed the previous batch in "seal a meal", sans vacuum. Four of six developed mold. "Nasty fuzzy fungal growth" in HM English. One of the un-moUldy bags had a leak and so I et it. Still a tasty treat. Further plan for the current batch: add more ground coriander to the bag. Toss...

Skwee. Swoon. Dude, you are one of my heroes. I have wondered since before I subscribed to your yt channel, why the heck a bloke in NSW is doing North American history? Best wishes.
