Loved your post, that location looks divine, a natural abundance.

I agree about the Mini, light enough to carry without being a drag, yet versatile enough to accomplish the necessary tasks.

My Mini, Gerber Sportsman saw, Mora Clipper, Leatherman Supertool, SAK Swiss Champ and Fiskars Trowel fulfill my needs and don't weigh a ton.

If your in Sydney, your only about 3 hours from me.

In Aussie country terms, that's not far away at all (bear in mind when I was younger, I used to travel 6 hours in a bus for a game of Rugby, and a game that was only 1 1/2 hours away in a car was classed as a "home" game :D )




Kind regards
Mick

Hi Mick,

Yes 3 hours is a short distance. I usualy manage a few 1000km plus days traveling somewhere each year on my motorbike, so 3 hours is just a short stones throw away. I'm actually a Victorian, although I have been living in Sydney for a few years now. Still discovering places in NSW. I love the other side of the range, had a few nice trips out Sofala way and around Mudgee. Hoping to get out a lot more over the next year. Enjoyed your post about your hatchet, I have been tempted buying one from Kilmarnock forge for a year or so.
