There were a small but unknown number of rats around my mum’s bird feeders earlier this year. Got a snap trap from B&Q, which proved too stiff for my mum to set. Since we have a cat and the birds, I built a box to put the trap in. The mice loved it….crapped and peed all over it. Caught two...

And the Scots?

That was not me being disparaging. I didn't say it was bad that he used AI, just that it looked like AI. If Dobson is who he says and all that he says is true, fantastic. If he shares how he wrote something that is structured and phrased to look like AI and multiple AI checkers show as 100%...

Terminus: I reckon the S35VN version at £119 would be good for Goldfish, but I would be hesitant to recommend anything in D2 that would be taken fishing on salt water.

Welcome. I am going to go out on a limb here for a compliment and say that that is one of the most impressive examples of AI writing I have seen used for an introduction. What prompts did you use?

Hello Jakemaan (Keshy, Tu5ive, Jidex, Abana) Going by your opening post, you seem to have a lack of imagination. The least you could do with your opening post is to craft something unique for us rather than just copy and paste the same one used on the Trifive forum (twice under different names)...

Great, thank you for your reply!! Your local choice isn’t that different from that on the mainland! :lmao: I think my local gun shop had some Spyderco once, but they were not anything I would want to use for field dressing game. Anyway, ordering from Heinnie is safe as houses. I don’t know...

What do you mean, you could not get a Vosteed Racoon? *edit: that sounded overly confrontational, not my intent. What I meant was, do you have an objection to mail order, certain companies, only buying from within the UK, or were just unable to locate one online? We often have folk asking...

One too many stove systems. One too many metal pots. Green cups, looks like they nest, which suggests one too many. Arguably the orange survival bag is excess when you are that close to people in a popular low level area while carrying a tarp and sleeping bag already. What looks like a grey...

Also moved thread from Resources as it wasn’t really what that sub forum was for, and shortened the title a little to make it more of a title and less the entire question.:bigok:

Not really. The forum is over 20 years old and just the general Kit sub forum has over 443 pages, each with about 20 threads. Some do discuss that sort of thing, but if you want something live, I think you will need to rekindle the conversation ;) :camping: Anything by Erbswurst is worth a...

I was curious, and found that the Wrangotool website ships only within the US. The only UK distributor for their tools I could find sold their hammers but not the axes. That left just Amazon US, which priced it around £145 including the shipping and duty. That is GB SFA price point.

I was also thinking about questioning the energy transfer statement. But decided it was too minor to fuss about. It did occur to me that it might be possible to accelerate a lighter axe to higher speed within the limits of arm power and swing length. Higher speed leading to more energy in the...

Thank you. Understood you now. You meant that Mecha is the resident expert on Bladeforum. Easy to misunderstand you though, because saying that someone is “our resident expert” implies an association. Since you were not here representing or on behalf of Bladeforum it was reasonable to...

Hello Dennis, For everyone’s clarity, Dennis is the founder of Wrangotools. Is Mecha working with you on this project? From that Bladeforum thread it didn’t seem so, but your post here made it sound like he is involved. Thanks Chris

"I thought our main ethos of bushcrafting was to leave no trace which I truly believe in." As we have had several lengthy and contentious threads where members have argued about what "bushcraft" even is, it is rather a stretch to assume there is a predominant ethos. ;) :D It might be more...

Paramo Men’s Katmai Shirt. Have used one for just about all sunny adventures since 2005. Not the sharpest looking, but performs well. I have a Royal Robins 5:11 tactical shirt esque design that looks better and works well, but hasn’t been made in many years.

https://uk.olight.com/store/i3t-2-small-edc-torch AAA powered or 10440 rechargeable. When you say “similar size” do you mean length and diameter or just length? Obviously you can get more run time in the length by going to a fatter battery, which is what I would do. What is your intended use...

For ticks, it is hard to beat spraying clothing and fabric with a permethrin based product. Repels and kills those that have a go anyway. Next would be the BushWear NO Tick wash in repellent. Finally for something to wear on oneself, I favour a picaridin based product rather than DEET. I have...

I will try to answer all the questions you asked. Yes. :lmao: Since there wasn’t another question in your post, I am not sure what, if anything else, you were wanting to know. ;) Good luck with your musings about erecting or deploying a tarp or umbrella while still zipped up inside a mesh...
