    How to stop soot burn from forming on the Crusader mug?

    Hi all, I used the Stainless steel Crusader mug with a hexi cooker and dragons breath gel fuel tablets that leave the bottom and sides black with soot, does anyone know a way to stop this from happening? Would tin foil do the trick, but wouldn't it reduce the performance?

    Army bivi bag mod for dog shelter?

    Hi, I've got the 10mm earth cable... 3 meters of it, and a british army issue closed cell foam mat. Now I've threaded the earth cable in to the existing drawstring tunnel but cannot get the bivi entrance to stand up freely for more than a few seconds. It looks like I'm going to have to stake it...

    Army bivi bag mod for dog shelter?

    Hi guys I always bring my dog out with my hiking but seeing him cold & wet while I'm in my bivi bag is not nice.

    Montane Grand Tour 55 torso length fit?

    Anyone got this rucksack and can provide any facts about how this pack fits your torso length? With it being a "one size" pack I'm hesitant to buy it online without trying it out for fit!

    If your a gamer check this out I bet many here will absolutely love this...

    Actually I'm not 100% sure how it works but if you do donate and the project fails to hit monetary target I'd imagine you'd get a full refund? If it does hit target then you become a "kickstarter" and depending on the amount you donated, receive early access to the game, or some other "gift".

    Either seek an alternative funding, do another kickstarter, or just give up entirely. This particular project will have no problem achieving it's goal, though.

    Yeah this german mountain grey rucksack is utterly useless for putting weights inside of as it has absolutely no structure or rigidity. I want the NI pack so macaroon if your dutch patrol sack is still available please PM your paypal details. Failing that I'll ask you @driliamski thanks

    WTD: PLCE 30l patrol pack or similiar basic hardwearing ruck for weight training with

    The german mountain grey ruck arrived just now. It's not as sturdy as the pictures suggest, and you can roll the thing up in to the sizer of a 1 liter nalgene bottle. I may well still need the NI patrol pack, afterall!
