    Damn, that explains why everywhere out of stock. Might try and build my own via Decathlon's jetboil rip off. Never thought about using one of these pots in a different config.

    Sterno Inferno stove kit - looks interesting

    Just seen a Paleo-HikerMD video on this stove and looks really interesting for anyone who uses a meths burner. Unfortunately it looks like a US only product with the price increase and postage on top possibly making it pointless to buy.

    What are you growing?

    Has anyone heard about keeping Goldfish in a water butt and using that liquid as green soup? Also you could look at a wormery.

    Wood burners in the news

    I think Irish Peat has to be dug for environmental reasons so burning is one of the options. This happened to my brother and his son when they moved to a new house by a main road. Cycling is the best way to travel from a breathing point of view. The worst is travelling in a car without hitting...

    Knots - resources to learn?

    Be really careful about this as they get stuff wrong. Dave Canterbury's knot series has mistakes in it and BushcraftUSA has a round turn and two half hitches wrong. I really like the Scout books which you can get for free at The Dump online. One thing to really take on board is what do you need...

    What would be the use of throwing spikes?

    The thing is that it was basically like modern special forces or spy training. Almost everything said about them does not hold up historically. The spikes were what they actually used however the reason for my question is that this is something that people carried so they would not raise...

    What would be the use of throwing spikes?

    Due to the way the Japanese have preserved their history you would have thought that there is something obvious that re-enactors are carrying that fits the bill. This is something that enough people carried for it not to raise red flags when seen by other people so it must have had some other...
