    A question of glue...

    I have come across Shoe Goo years ago. I didn't know it was still available. Does it last well? At least it has "Shoe" in the name... Z

    Sold Singer 15-91

    Killing Ticks on Clothes - tumble dryer

    As a boy in Africa, my mother would iron everything, bedsheets in particular, to kill the bedbugs, fleas and other visitors. How about microwaving stuff? Z

    Axe Giveaway

    Not found your YouTube videos before. I'll have a look. I just finished pimping a little 1 lb Elwell into a carving hatchet and I was thinking how I learned how to sharpen an axe by following a thread of yours on here. So thanks for posting that one! (I just looked and it's still a sticky at...

    Lose your knife, lose your life!

    I tend to make up names for paths and places I frequent in the woods. A particular brambly badger track has been named "Hopeful Pass" as it is the last place I remember having my Svord Peasant. Z

The regulations for incinerators stipulate a temperature of 850°C (or 1100°C for halogenated organic substances).You might be able to get your fire up...

    Anyone own a Zafira tourer?
