Might as well use this old thread (good recycling :) ). A couple of us had expressed an interest in signing up to this year's course and we are now on it pre opening. I decided on this year because I have this opportunity to maximise it. I've just been through module one and will try and do...

Good of you to post an update. Yes check his wellies, when I stayed over to help with the photoshoot for this badge last January the mud there kept sucking them off my heels.

Bit of a cheesy title but I realised that I hadn't yet done a bowdrill page for my blog so I set about knocking one up..And as I put some bits down it just grew and grew to become my journey thus far with notes on knots I use, cordage and oh, lots more. The link is here if anyone would like a...

Interesting that you are in Essex too yet didn't know about it. I did a quick blog with several pics if you are interested http://austinlill.blogspot.co.uk/2015/06/the-wild-food-chilli-fair-essex.html

I attended this show on Sunday and I thought I'd chuck a link to it on the forum to give it a bit of a push for next year. It was the first one so almost predictably there were some teething troubles, notably a lack of local signage and the fact that the show was spread out over a large area...

I know that putting this in leaders chatter is preaching to the converted, but it seems sort of right too as it's a blog about selling scouting to bushcrafters and getting them involved. I've covered what I've put in (and got out) of Scouting with bushcraft and peppered it with pictures of...

Google The Bushcraft Journal and you'll get him.

I have been helping the corporate dept at Gilwell for some months with the sponsorship by Victorinox of Scout section's Survival Skills badge. Whilst I wasn't involved in all parts of the decision making I'm pleased I was on board to at least influence the bits I had access to. There's more than...

Mighty pleased it was a non mod post having said that! :)

I saw a notification email that you'd posted and thought 'Uh oh a mod, I'm getting told off for posting about his blog again' lol.

I seem to becoming Joe's unofficial blog PA but he's said, via social media and his e-newsletter, that in the quieter winter months he will start increasing his output. He's stuck up an Alpkit tarp review which looks impressive kit, and has said that he'll be posting some projects to build from...

Go and sit on the naughty log! ;)

Nice one. I'm in no rush...it's done when it's done! Uptake has been a bit slow so it probably will be the deciding factor time wise :(

I've hopefully got six of the list of twenty outstanding issues arriving in the near future (Spring, Summer,and Autumn 2006. Spring 2007, Winter 2010 and Spring 2011) which will leave only fourteen issues that need doing...

The idea is to make the contents of all the issues available as a sort of wiki so for instance, if had a glut of elderberries and recall you seeing an article about making them into cough remedies, you wouldn't have to thumb through them all, you could look at the (hopefully) completed list when...

Here's a link to my blog where I've listed the articles in the issues I have so it can be used by anyone who wants to find something specific http://austinlill.blogspot.co.uk/2014/12/ongoing-bushcraft-magazine-article.html

Thanks John, much appreciated but it doesn't look like this one is gonna be a starter... :(

Er bump? I'm surprised that there's no takers, the idea is that we can all build up an online reference library that we can all benefit from, and turn your Bushcraft mags from just issues into a usable resource.

I’ve recently compiled an article reference for the issues of Bushcraft magazine (http://www.bushcraft-magazine.co.uk/) that I have with a view to posting a thread on here and my blog, the only trouble is that I’m missing a fair few. I messaged the Bushcraft magazine on Facebook recently with...
