I have a Fjallraven Jacket that I use Greenland wax on, it does darken it slightly and it will stiffen up a little as well. The heavier the amount of wax you put on the stiffer it gets, but the greater the level of proofing you get. Greenland wax is quite hard though. Using a wax preperation...

101 Uses for Stinging Nettles by Piers Warren. This is the second of two books that I was recently given for my Birthday, both books were cheap and cheerful costing only £5.95 delivered with Amazon Prime. Just to clear up any confusion this book is not a series of tutorials, there are a few...

John as Rick said get yourself an external drive for backup, also get yourself a linux boot disc. You can normally read and copy most anything on a windows drive from linux, all you have to do is mount the drive. This comes in handy if the boot sector of the drive becomes corrupt or fails.

Shack, it's small and light, so if the bookcase really is groaning then you will probably get away with it.

Sorry to hear this John, I hope all is sorted soon. P.S. The title of this thread almost sounds like a type of Fungi a bit like Amethyst Deceiver.

I'm gonna be reading Piers Warrens book 101 Uses For Stinging Nettles in about 10 minutes.

British Native Trees Their Past and Present Uses; including a guide to burning wood at home. By Piers Warren. I was recently bought this book for my Birthday, I had seen it and expressed an interest. I do enjoy carving, but do far too little of it and although I have a fair amount of...

You have a PM.

Quite correct, only a brainless zombie would buy it.

The 800gm Trekking axe is the one inbetween in length alone, weight wise it's probably heavier in the head. I haven't got an 800gm trekking axe here at the moment, I have got the 900gm one here. I could get a photograph of one of these alongside of the GB SFA, GB Hunters, HF SY20, HF Splitting...

A belated Many happy returns for the day

Over here these are reffered to as trekking axes (I hava trade account with them). One has a 8oogm head and the other has a 900gm head. The 800gm head we tend to refer to as the man hatchet, good for splitting and not bad as a pack axe for travelling, don't expect it to replace a felling axe...

I am sorry to say that this was a myth started by the American newspapers to discredit the radio as a source of reliable news. Basically it was all down to revenue, the papers were losing advertising to the radio and as such they were losing revenue, they needed to do something and they took a...

Yeah, you could be right about that, but if you go one to the right there does appear to be a Sleeping bag.

Buy 3 and then keep the cost below the import duty threshold of £18

If it's just for personal use It'll last for a good period of time (probably a decade or more). I would try to use it evenly so that it goes square rather than round that way you'll get better wear and tear from it. If, on the other hand, you are teaching and doing demonstrations using it then...
