Nicely attended Ian, best post on here in ages. You forgot to mention that aluminium will also make a totally useless axe, but it'll be a lot cheaper ;)

Cheers, it’s a spectacular view, from the hill behind me are views right over to the Bristol Channel. I’m somewhere between Wells and Shepton Mallet, a place called Croscombe, on a lovely little campsite.

Lovely work says the Sussex dweller :)

Apologies for not tidying the thread, it sold to a friend a while back.

View out of my van window tonight.

Seems to me that sticks actually made with walking in mind are always longer and grip height is judged by up to the elbow with the lower arm held at a right angle. Honestly a far more useful length for getting up of a seat, feeling the ground ahead if going downhill, feeling out rocks and depth...

Price drop to £45

We should start a landscaping advisory service :35:

I've always got a bag of Tesco's baby broad beans in the freezer. As someone mentioned, excellent with bacon or gammon, parsley sauce and potatoes.

Limited edition in polished aluminium, has a 5000K emitter that produces a lovely pure daylight neutral beam. This is the wide reflector version so there's lots and lots of flood with a good central hotspot. Comes with a Sony VTC 3000mAh battery, boxed with headband, clip and spare o-rings...

Gathered 6 Hazel stems yesterday for just such a thing, a lot cheaper and rustic.

Had exactly the same problem with a similar ‘joiner’, mine was to reattach an antler handle to a walking stick. Couldn’t for the life of me think what it might be called, so I ended up on an extensive search of walking stick supplies, which was equally vague. This meme was offered :D

If it’s just a flap and there’s no proper stove jack fitted then it’s likely for power. You need a proper insulated fitting to keep the canvas away from the pipe. Plus, it’s extremely unlikely a glamping tent would ever be fitted with a wood burning stove.

Nothing to do with wisdom, more to do with spending too much time buying gadgets :rolleyes:. My recommendations for cheap, burner multitools are in the post above. Roxon, Nextool and Bibury. Having sold a Leatherman and bought the Bibury pliers pro, I can vouch for the quality being on a par...

To add to Dave Budds excellent advice, it's a good idea to thoroughly rinse your stones and blade to avoid larger particles being transferred to finer grit stones and scratching. Possibly more useful to those looking to get a polished surface, I know this from experience getting lacquered wood...

St Mary's Church, Upwaltham, West Sussex.

Once more into the realms of fantasy :lmao: It's really a very simple opening post.
