Yeah it did not stick until cycling long distances and having to stop or remove clothing on the go.

As TKM said I have had this happen on a cycle in Jeans and a funny thing happened in that I got faster as they got more and more water logged ie heavier. On my bike and walking there is often those moments of is it a shower or is it serious? I cycled to work and the estimated 12 times a year I...

As you are a professional writer I believe you... As a dyslexic I now need to spend some time muttering in the corner about bloody English.... I mean come on vowels that are not vowels or half vowels, give me a break...

I am slowly replacing my cordage with jute as with some prep work it is a joy to work and you can get it from PoundLand. I used paracord the last couple of days and it just does not have the same feel and behaviour as the natural stuff. My fast ridge line just made me think about ways to make it...

Nice to met you at the weekend.

Wonderful work as always however why make it from sisal or do you have some process to make it pleasant to work with? I am going back to natural materials however it is very much for the feel and the joy of use.

I am doing this slowly with a molle vest set up. Part of the reason is to have the stuff I want available to the front as I carry the stuff and never seem to use it.

Understanding the variety of Japanese carpentry tools Might be of interest.

Knowing it only between me and you, I love me some Nora Roberts and JD Robb. :)

Harry Harrison and Bernard Cornwell books are interesting. I really liked how Cornwell created him and then they ruined it in the TV show along with a lot of other stuff.

It is a very small knife to be honest and while I have used it as a food prep knife, not sure it what people looking for. Think more neck knife.

I think that is the big thing going for these designs which works well in the office, school or college however when out in the beyond weight becomes one of my gods. Yeah, being able to find my glasses because they sit in a pocket at the top of my bag is a really big deal. The game of hunt the...

I think that is the thing these pack ideas come from medic packs so they are used day in day out with the set up being designed to work with max muscle memory. The big thing that keeps getting in my way with using this idea is the duplication of items which is such a weight issue for us Civvies.

I am not sure that works ever... The theory makes sense however I just think it gives you more pockets to not find what you are looking for in.

Yeah, I have actually seen the 'latest' tacti-cool rucksack with rolls in it and after laughing at the blurb thought back 30 years to when the paramedics had those. It is an idea I have been thinking about for a while however it does not work very well from a weight point of view.

I have had my Strike for a while now and just starting to mod it. Lovely bits of kit. Only complaint would be the shoulder straps are a bit thin, it a weird one. Watch side pockets as I had fun getting side pockets due to zip direction issues.

More info please John... as always. If you go over to Bushcraft USA and search for user spork (I think) he makes them and has a guide.

The massive problem with this train of thought is that there is minimal to no evidence to work with. Paul Kirtley Podcast 53: Theresa Emmerich Kamper On Traditional Tanning Theresa talks about this issue in this podcast. Think Ray mentions it in Woodland as well. The requirements for the stuff...

A big problem for us is that most of this stuff now is not designed for our use. It is all being designed for the non-user like for school or college. Which makes sense as they can sell more. You will notice they have a very fashion approach with lots of colour changes and design changes year on...
