    What did you buy today?

    What's the plan for the setup and are you currently running the house from it/if not what are you powering? If you have the space you could do a ground mount array

    karrimor SF predator a generous 30l?

    It's considerably lighter, feels less bulky than my centurio did. Only downside is the lack of adding the rocket side pouches on the predator but it does have bottle holders on the sides and straps if you wanted to store a saw/axe/bivvy etc

    karrimor SF predator a generous 30l?

    I own a predator 30 I would say its 30l once it's closed properly and pulled down tight on the straps like the pictures show when it's shown online. With the inner expanded I would guess an easy 10l extra if not more if you loosen off the tension straps. I can dig mine out and take some...

    Amazon Prime - Have you quit?

    Have to agree- fallout has been a pretty good watch. Currently on episode 5. Never played the game so had no idea what to expect

    Home first aid kit

    If your using a chainsaw I would highly recommend getting some sort of idea on how they are used correctly and picking some up. Unfortunately the prices have risen in the last 2 years on this kind of equipment. Not to put a damper on the mood but by the time help has been called and someone...

    Legality and Perception of EDC's

    More often than not I carry a slipjoint (lars falt) and a farmer x. The only time I dont is on the school run or while in a supermarket and it's in the car. I don't go clubbing/pubbing but if I did I wouldn't carry them there, and I don't work in a setting where people look at me if I do use...

    What tinder to wrap around a ferro rod?

    I wrap duct tape on the end of a 6 inch ferro rod to give me a handle. I use a small section of tape to scrape fatwood or any other tinder source onto and find it sticks to it and doesn't blow the tinder away if theres wind. The duct tape does then burn in the tinder pile

    water bottles and water

    I use a 1.5l nalgene bottle with a source hydration hose, and have a 1l nalgene stainless as part of my brew kit. If the kids are with me they have their own 500ml nalgene bottles to keep the weight down in their backpacks and ill put a few fruitshoot drinks in my pack. I'm rarely far from a...

    Home first aid kit

    Was told by the paramedic that if it's a hospital job then the biggest concern would be stop the bleed- tourniquets don't need to be sterile/in date just readily accessible and prepared and stored for use and the time written on them if applied and a cross on the forehead to signal this...

    Home first aid kit

    Did a refresher course last month for first aid that covered forestry and lone working and also ticks (lymes) Will definitely be doing it again once it runs out and money well spent for the knowledge you get from it. Showed us the correct way of storing a tourniquet ready for it to be used in...

    2024 Bushcraft Goals

    To only buy gear and kit with money I have made from selling other bits. Have recently discovered vinted and have sold some clothes on there rather than dispose of in the clothes bins at supermarkets. Signed up for a separate bank account that any money earned gets paid into that and trying to...
