    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...

    Leather glove treatment

    Depending on the brand they may offer their own care package. I have a pair of the hestra falt guide gloves and use the hestra branded leather balm care. I usually give them a wipe over with a damp cloth and saddle soap, dry them naturally and apply the hestra balm. I use the casstrom leather...

    Pathfinder stockist in UK? Seeking Grayl Stainless Steel Cup by Pathfinder Gear

    Bought mine from the grayl UK site as was the only place I could find it in the UK at the time. No issues at all. Would like to find a UK supplier of pathfinder products though- I do like my 8 inch skillet and they have a new 10inch version out that would compliment it well

    New Zippo Insert

    Bought a butane insert for my zippo a few years ago, its the single flame version. Initially I had trouble with it not working consistently until I read something about the need to 'purge' them before refilling. Once it's low on fuel I use a small flat blade screwdriver to press on the fill...

    Woodlore clone recommendation

    I love my lars falt - to me it suits my needs and would highly recommend it for a multitude of tasks. It splits well, carves good and the spine can scrape wood or a ferro rod just fine. It also feels like the right size in the hand and balanced. I havent seen the tbs boar, but have the original...

    Burradon pond

    I use a 5-15g for perch and jack pike, usually use the zman soft plastics with a 1 or 1/0 hook rigged on a 5g cherabuska weight. I find the weedless setup bouncing on the bottom gives me a much better success rate. I use a 'bfs' style setup- shimano alderbaran baitcaster - 10/12lb braid onto a...

    Better Kit organisation

    I try and store what I have in the storage boxes, and take what I need depending on my plans and company. As much as I try and offload what I don't use or get along with I do have redundancies and spares and just in case items. What I take out in the summer may differ to winter in terms of...

    Tools at the heart of the home/homestead - power tools!

    I used to use bosch power tools, but they were in need of new batteries and some of the tools were getting old and tired. I bought some erbauer replacements and figured if they lasted me for the warranty alone they would be a lot more cost efficient for me- that was 4 years ago and all have...

    Xmas Christmas ideas

    Im asking for some new sharpening stones/diamonds and maybe some help towards tickets for the bushcraft show next year. There's not a lot I want or need -I generally save up and buy things I want when I am able to.

    DMT or equivalent sharpeners

    Have seen the Axminster ones- what would they stick to? Something like a block of flat plastic or wood? They seem very well priced
