    Canvas stool

    I'm using nylon bonded thread. I double stitched the hems and reinforced each "joint" by going over it two or three times. Good luck stitching four layers of canvas on a standard machine. I used a manual crank 1938-40 201 singer. Sent from my ONEPLUS A5000 using Tapatalk

    Can you double it over? Don't forget to round over the sticks...! Sent from my ONEPLUS A5000 using Tapatalk

    Axe sheath

    Decided to do a bit of leatherwork today. I bought the axe off the bring and buy table at the moot a number of years ago and year before last Dave reprofiled it for carving. The sheath that came with it has never fitted - I think it was a spare they guy threw in just to stop it slicing people on...

    Canvas stool

    I was "torn" between this and a hammock chair, but trying to keep bulk down so it's either one or t'other! Sent from my ONEPLUS A5000 using Tapatalk

    Canvas stool

    Far North bushcraft YouTube channel showed off a canvas stool project with measurements. As I'm off to Finland with Wayne Jones (forest knights bushcraft expedition - still a few spots left!) I thought it'd be nice not to sit on the floor, but have a very lightweight stool which was airline...

    Wanted: Underblanket

    Like this? ;) I do prefer curtains, I only have one 4x4.5m tarp that'll cover mind. Sam's is 3 x 3.5 I think. I'll put them up on Sunday to check. Sent from my ONEPLUS A5000 using Tapatalk

    Wanted: Underblanket

    Son is 4ftish. We have the DD underblanket and it's not quite doing the job. This plus the DD blanket should leave him toasty I hope! I've bought some shock cord as well and it should do the job. Though if anyone has a winter down underblanket they want rid of still let me know! I do also have...

    Wanted: winter underblanket

    Cheers, but all my hammock options are netted! I think a 6 year old might struggle with it and I'm 6ft 5ins so can't swap for my Gucci hammock. Sent from my ONEPLUS A5000 using Tapatalk

    Wanted: Underblanket

    That might work with the addition of the crappy DD one. Have you got a link to what you mean? Don't want to order the wrong one... Sent from my ONEPLUS A5000 using Tapatalk

    Wanted: winter underblanket

    Cheers, it's bad timing from my side - I've plenty of hammocks and a DD underblanket for my son. But looking at the temperatures in Finland I'm concerned it won't be man enough for the job. I've camped in the DD underblanket in this country with the overblanket and just been very cold - and...

    Ooops, I'll (probably) miss you.

    I don't think I'll be able to make the summer moot this year. The scout section is oversubscribed for the number of kids they've got going and need additional leadership support. Unfortunately I'd already booked a holiday in July, and this too is in July, so taking yet another week off at the...

    Anyone got an crafty plans?

    Can't make it Tony, but that walking stick session (go find, harvest and then carve) was excellent. Sent from my ONEPLUS A5000 using Tapatalk

    Autumn bushmoot questions

    Usually you can forage for wood or there's some provided. You can park up, wheelbarrows for use. Fires can be open, but you'll burn less if you use a box. Best to check in first, but if you're late, find a pitch and check in next day. Sent from my ONEPLUS A5000 using Tapatalk
