I have 2 stoves too. One is a large stove with 127mm chimnies, an the other one is an old rusty Norwegian army stove with 89mm pipes. The larger stove chimeny wouldn't even fit into the stove jack of the tent unless it gets cut. The old Norwegian army stove pipe fits ok, and the stove sits OK...

I got this new hot tent, which came with stove jack. But I feel my wood burning stove might be too close to the tent wall. The tent is 1 or 2 person for max, which is not roomy. When the stove is placed in the tent under the stove jack, the back of the stove is very close to the tent which...

Coud it be this one? I found it interresting too.

I have read the news that some campers died of Carbone Monoxide poisoning off the kerosene heaters in their tents, but never read or heard of the similar tragic cases from the wood burning stoves.

I have some Fiskars garden tools. They are 2x small wood cutting axes X10 X7 (?). I also have 2x Fiskars retractable garden saws, which are excellent. My first Fiskars tool was the brush hook bought used from eBay 15 year ago for a tenner. It still works like the first day. Very sharp edges...

A portable camping / garden stove - seems working well.

Please PM me for Paypal details.

I will take it, thanks.

Ordered a long handled billhook from ebay 3 days ago. The seller posted via Royal Mail Tracked 48, and it arrived OK yesterday. The billhook has the sharpest edge I have seen, and works great. RM seems keep delivering blade stuff no problem as of well into mid May 2024.

Came across this interesting video on youtube.

Came across this interesting video on youtube. Blade making part starts @9:27

Wow that was a real bargain. Indeed, it is funny old world, or new world. Things used to be more predictable in the good old days. Now? A bit of hit and miss. :D

That's pretty good. It must have been made with good quality material. I was wondering if plastic tarps degrade through time even not being put out in the sun, just being stored away and getting old. But it seems all depends on what materials they are made of? I recall having bought my old...

I was clearing out the toolboxes in the shed, and found this old large tarp about 5m x 7m in camaflage colour. It is made of some type of cheap plastic material nothing special. I remember buying it about 15 years ago, and used for one summer season. It must have been folded, and put away...

Got a popup tent set up under the canopy for further sheltering from the storm, and now quite cozy for a quick rest, sit down for a drink and read or repairing and cleanig the garden tools in it. It takes about 5 minutes to erect, and 5 minutes to dismantle fold and put it in the carry bag...

The old Fiskars Brush Hook performed very well. I have the new design one as well, plus some others (Tramonitas). Will try with the others next time.

A smokeless firepit. Not 100% smokelss due to damp woods. Seems working ok giving much less smoke than normal firepit. We have loads of tree branches to burn in the garden.

The 100m roll of paracord from Amazon for £9.61 arrived next day, and it seems good quality. I managed to tie up the shelter frames guying it down to the heavy rocks and washing poles. The paracord was bending and tieing very well like string. The canopy shelter feels more secure and stable...

Managed to locate, and ordered one from Amazon a 4mm noname paracord 100m length for £9.61 including FREE delivery. Will update here on quality in due course.

£10 for 100m 4mm thickness paracord from eBay sounds OK then. A 100m length paracord will be plenty for another 10 years. :D
