    Solar pannel query

    Before you start shelling out for gizmos to charge your phone, it would be much better and cheaper to find out if the actual solar panel works, being stored for so long as well as the normal deterioration of the cells might make it unworkable.

    Walking in Circles

    Looking at this on a mechanical basis, unless each leg was the exact same length, then each stride would be of a different length, therefore you naturally would go in a circle, there are so many variables, hip joint, muscle strength, swagger etc, that I think in reality without obvious markers...

    Warning, when ordering from Spain, and UPS woes.

    Don't forget there is a Global Fuel shortage, and also a lot of Flight cancellations, so some air freight delays might be expected, I ordered a Track Saw at 16:30 last night and it was delivered at 9:05 this morning by UPS, so they aren't all that bad, all incoming freight from abroad has also...

    Opinions please; chatter on threads...

    if it ain't broke, don't fix it. there is no compulsion to view a thread, if you don't like whats going on, don't look at it.

    two way radios updated to cb radios

    As an "ol trucker" (1970's+)I can say that the CB was used extensively whilst on the road, very handy to be told of Accidents, holdups, diversions even directions, weather etc etc, one channel was always kept free for emergencies, it was called "The Emergency Channel", over in the US the CB was...

    two way radios updated to cb radios

    In all honesty, its hard to know if someone is licensed, there are quite a few bogus call signs about, false or SK ones being used by unscrupulous people, and I doubt if any Radio Amateur would refuse to help in an emergency, as its quite common worldwide for Amateurs to become involved in...

    how to keep camera interior dry?!

    Those little packets of silicon, packed inside a dry bag, also never leave a camera inside a bag too long, I use a Billingham bag, which although waterproof has plenty of vents in it, so the air circulates,, you can buy de-humidifier granules in a plastic container in the £ shops which collect...

    Sold Ray mears Wilkinson sword bushcraft knife for sale

    They have a few things wrong, the thickness of the metal and also the weight, a WS knife with Micarta handle only weighs 186Grams, the AW with obvious wooden handle weighs in at 196grams. You can always measure the one you have and weigh it, although a precision scale is usually needed to get...

    What can you see No.7

    Looks to me that the bottom one is a natural step, moving forward with pressure showing on the toe, and the top one has been placed lightly then picked up upwards rather than moving forward in a natural way, so I would say the bottom one is the older one. I am assuming the same shoe made both...

    Sum up what we do.

    It's isolation, peace and quiet, and managing to do it in complete control. After all you don't have to be outside to carry out a "Bushcraft" task.

    Stoopid jokes

    It,s far too easy to start a fight. My wife and I were watching Who Wants To Be A Millionaire while we were in bed. I turned to her and said, 'Do you want to have sex?' 'No,' she answered. I then said, 'Is that your final answer?' She didn't even look at me this time, simply saying, 'Yes..' So...
