    Broad beans as an antidepressant

    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.

    Sold SPYDERCO UKPK FAT CARBON DARK MATTER HEINNIE® EXCLUSIVE FOLDING KNIFE

    Glad it sold for you, I would have returned it for a full refund rather than sell it and having to pay Age Verified postage, but each to their own.

    What are you growing?

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

    Thingymyjig - Help please

    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

    Bell tent stove

    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.

    Burner multitool

    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...

    Sharpening

    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...

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

    Burner multitool

    Nextool, Roxon and Bibury make decent budget tools.

    OLIGHT i3T2 EOS Torch Alternatives ?

    TBH the stated runtimes are pretty good for an AAA torch. Would you be using AAA, rechargeable NiMh (LADDA, Eneloop), or 10440 Li-ion? I only use AAA on a little Skilhunt E3A on my keyring, it runs 100lm for an hour and helps find keyholes or things in the back of a cupboard. Anything that...

    Hard Lemon Soda.

    Lol. One college bash involved me driving an hour or so back home to do a raid on the garage. I nicked a whole crate of a dozen bottles and returned to the party. Sort of a cider Claymore, nobody got a drop to drink, each bottle erupted like Vesuvius up onto the ceiling.

    Hard Lemon Soda.

    My dad's cider. We were warned not to go in the garage on really hot days, you could hear them popping. Corks were wired Champagne style. The well chilled bottle had to have the cork released by snipping the wire, absolutely fraught with danger and the cause of several chunks of Artex to be...

    Best option for a slicey, 3-4” full tang stainless blade with a flat grind?

    I'm guessing your wifi isn't loading pics too well, but it's loose, not stuck to the strop.

    Is this fatwood?

    That looks about right, soaked with resin. If you can beat the peg out then the best bit is revealed.

    Tengu Versus Highland Castles (or anything else, for that matter)

    Not really, mid range Bongo is around £4000-£6000. You could spend that renting a place for 6 months and you'd still need a car to get to work and back. Also, having a van ready kitted gives such a lot of freedom to travel around Scotland knowing you don't have to google and pre book...
