There are some groups on Facebook posting a lot of pictures and facts around this. Go into the group "La Naturen Leve" and see. There you will also find links to various groups covering the different areas.

Bad bad things are gong on in Norway at the moment. Large European Power comapnies (mainly german) are destroying untouched nature and endangered wildlife in order to build huge windmill parks. Sea eagles are killed by the hundreds. Please spread the word all over Europe. If this is not stopped...

Some additional photos from my camera: We can see all the way to Jotunheimen, and the glaiciers surrounding the Glittertind, Norways second highest mountain. Looking south/east. This area is full of old bronze and iron age reindeer traps and fences to lead the reindeers of some of the...

I think there has been a missunderstanding here:-D I'm not Odd from the Norwegian Bushcraft. I'm Odd AKA Skaukraft, two different Odds:-) The tention from the scope mounts might very well be part of the problem. It is a old Bushnell-scope (Korean, not Chinese) I mounted in a hurry because the...

What you need is MMA (Metmethylacrylate) and a polymerizer of some sort. And of course some cnotraption to vacuumize the lot. Acrifix 190 and Acrifix CA0020 are good, but expensive. But some well asorted chemistry stores should be able to get MMA for a relative good price. The problem is often...

Looks great!

Thanks. I've got the spare parts list and instructions for it now. Or at least the instructions for the upper part of the machine. I also got on touch with a shoe maker that has one of these in service (a 1910 model). I am planning to visit his shop to see how it works, and get some input on the...

Edit: Doubble postt.

Your tip about the saddle restoring forum payed of Macaroon. It is a 34K. The biggest column sewing machine made by Singer. It was produced approx 500 of these in the end of the 1800's and beginning of 1900's.

Thanks for the info. Sounds like I'm on to quite a challenge here...

She is a beauty:-) I have been googeling for two days now, and not found one single picture of a machine similar to this one. But I am mamazed over the tightness and precision in the mechanism. And it is a round leather drive belt on it. I have reason to belive that it has been in use in a shoe...

Hi. Long time no see. I have just got this old lady in the house. It is from an old shoe makers shop. The serial number is 11400037, and as far as I have found out it is a 1893 model. But thats about all I have found. It seems to be in fairly good working condition, but needs some TLC. I was...

It is hard to get to by public transport, but I would highly recommend a padle from Rogen, via the river Røa through Femnundsmarka National Park and down to Lake Femunden. It is quite a few prtages on the way, so 4-5 days might be a bit short.
