    Hultafors Overstrike Guard Wanted

    When I was reading about stick making many moons ago. The writer said he always used a pva glue/water mix on paracord and to this day whenever I use paracord in any sort of whipping I still do that. Works a treat. The water stops it drying white and the glue holds it all together. But I still...

    Hultafors Overstrike Guard Wanted

    I already have an axe wrapped in paracord with a small section of bicycle tyre on bottom to hold it all together - that works well. I have one with no guard at all and theres chunks missing - they definitely offer good protection. Dont take offence but I'm not after opinions this time around...

    Hultafors Overstrike Guard Wanted

    Anyone know where I can get one from, if there is such a thing. Or, the best fitting type? Any makers here that can knock one up for me. I have the Hultafors Trekking Axe with the 44cm handle. OLO www.onelifeoverland.com

    Is ash food safe?

    Just checking, I'm sure it is but is ash food safe? I have a project coming up (lockdown permitting!) which involves cooking meat on a kind of lattice using debarked green ash shoots. I'm saying ash because I know there is an abundance of ash in the area I'll be going too. I've used various...

    Good fjallraven 'trouser' alternatives

    I looked around and in spite of lots of thoughts and ideas in the end I decided Fjallraven Trousers are the failsafe. Tried and tested so i went back to what i know and bought a new pair. Thanks all for your efforts though. Much appreciated. OLO www.onelifeoverland.com

    BCUK 2020 Photograph Competition May Heat

    I posted this in the 'photo of the day' thread but I guess I can use it here too as an entry for this month? My boy Teulu comes everywhere with me. This was taken on a Samsung Galaxy S9+ Teulu's Adventures OLO www.onelifeoverland.com

    Ridge line and Prusik knot

    Just happen to stumble across this thread. I know what system he will have used for this test, we used same in Mountain Rescue, though for hauling and not breaking. Just a simple matter of adding a short section of cord into the system, along with a set of scales that has a max pull needle on it...

    Leather Pouches

    Mike McQuilton uses a leather pouch for his lead shot for his slingshot and fire kit and seems to cinch up tight. I think he carrys 14mm shot mind so bigger than your pellets. He also has a video on how he makes them. I've made a few of my own of varying sizes but I've used a synthetic leather...

    Go Pro Hero 8 Black Reviews

    I got the one from Amazon including the extra battery, 32gb card and the shorty. Not that I'm impatient but that was quickest delivery I could find [emoji23] Not ordered any of the mods yet though. I'll knock up a video without first and see how it sounds - with sound being the main bug bear...

    Go Pro Hero 8 Black Reviews

    Am in need of a new camera for my vlogging exploits on a popular video upload website where I have a channel that I'm trying to boost my subscribers. The Go Pro Hero 8 is appealing because it comes with all the mods that gives me all the options I require in a camera. I want a screen that faces...
