    My belt kit.

    Yep. I’ve not seen an Allen kit on my surplus rummaging lately. Maybe people hang onto them? The numbat is one of the better looking civi chest rigs. The US FLC is a really good (potentally cheap) base if you want front pouches and belt together. I really like the removable “Fanny pack”...

    My belt kit.

    I was in the garage routing about and…. Everything in a belt kit. All be it I am cheating with the rocket pack having lightweight kip bag and ground sheet in. If I had a fancy super compressing air mat there is room in a utility pouch for it. Cheap kip mat bungied to the outside. Change the...

    Used clothing

    Online I have several people get most of second hand clothing & kit from. Build up contacts. All my clothing growing up was hand me down, even into adult hood. I had a very snazzy white fake motor cycle jacket at one point. But that was the 1980’s. :cool: I still get second hand kit from...

    What is the best DIY sole for home made shoes?

    Crushed plastic coke-a-cola bottles. This is the best brand as red ones go faster!

    Folder with just a knife and saw?

    I have one of these, decent little package. The saw seems at effective as a SAK one, if not better.

    I, Robot , I Soldier.

    A humanoid build may not be the best chassis for many tasks. But it can interact with infrastructure designed around people. There is also the psychological aspect that might be useful in some areas. When they add heels, lipstick and an earring you need to run!
