    I’ve been using one like that for years. Might experiment with a blue sharpie to make it less visible ..

    Not Bushcraft - music device question

    Most of the Pure ones would do you fine. The Evoke ones sound great. Avoid the One series though, as after a year the black tactile finish one mine went all sticky.

    Heads up - Post office not sending sharps after 22nd April

    I only get post from RM around once every 7-10 days. Been like that for months now due to staff shortages. Only thing arrives quickly is Special Delivery and that’s because a separate van comes out with it. Useless. I’m almost ashamed to say I used to be a postie !

    Heads up - Post office not sending sharps after 22nd April

    Members of EM have contacted RM directly and been told that it will be a total ban. No service at all. The age verified too. They have emailed asking for it to be reconsidered. RM said they will listen to all opinions but plan to go ahead with the ban. Ring them yourselves if you aren’t...

    Heinnies are continuing to use DPD. But as I said earlier, you will need a business account.

    Camera recommendations

    £1500 goes nowhere with new mirrorless and matching lenses. I’d buy used good SLR lenses and an APS body. Nikon D7200 and the AF-P lenses are great value. I still use a D3400 myself. Of course there is Canon and other quality manufacturers , I just have no experience of them.

    Knife - using one of those new fangled waterjet thingymajigs.

    As it’s a fixed blade I wouldn’t think the length would matter ;)

    What did you buy today?

    I was using the usb output there. Have now gone onto using just an iPad say on top of the keyboard .. much better ! You can use midi still to a pc/laptop. Take a look at this one that comes highly recommended. Volt You could also look at iPad options and use the great, free, GarageBand to record.
