    Molle/PALS attachment thingies?

    Blade-Tech Molle-Lok. Brilliant kit. Not flexible, but dead solid and dead easy to put on and off. ITW Nexus Annex Clips Also great kit, a little more tricky to attach than Molle-Lok, but much easier than the MALICE Clips

    Tengu and the Stuckie

    Well, actually, I was starting to wonder where you were. I had imagined that you were so deep in the Iron Age that you did not have internet. I am so sorry to hear that it was something else altogether! Hope you heal swiftly. Chris

    Recommendation for good Tent for Garden Bushcraft?

    I understand better. I think the shelter like Tony has at the Moot, made of pipes, a bit of a pain to put up, but pretty sturdy. I have friends who have been building their own house for several years and have several such shelters to hold tools and materials in (what is left of) the garden...

    Recommendation for good Tent for Garden Bushcraft?

    I would think you would not want a floor in the tent, and would want to be able to open doors or roll up walls for through ventilation. I would have tended to go with a large tarp rather than a tent, but only if the tools were only out for use, not multi-day storage. I have had tents in my...

    What wildlife did you spot today?

    :slap::rolleyes: If someone knows you and knows you are just joking, that is funny as hell. If they don't, its not funny at all. Lets not take a thread about wildlife spotting off topic with a further detour into blow pipes and related poisons. :rolleyes:

    What wildlife did you spot today?

    Was out on Saturday and saw a pair of house martins flying over Pitsford Water. Saw the other usual stuff, great crested grebes, swans, geese, various ducks etc. Also, in the days since posting about the water deer behind my house I have seen a muntjac and last evening saw a pair of roe bucks...

    What wildlife did you spot today?

    This morning, I saw a pair of Chinese Water Deer in the field behind my house. Usually the deer seen are muntjac and sometimes lately, roe, but these were a pair of water deer, doe and a buck following her around, passed within a few yards of my back garden fence. The buck's vampire fang tusks...

    Heads up - Post office not sending sharps after 22th April

    I would like to think that the person updating the website didn't get that memo, but knowing the way things are, they might have ignored it, or maybe there has been another change of tack. Will just have to wait and see.

    BcUK fly of the month April 2024

    Don't publish where that was, but I am curious! My own theory, based on my experience, is that most rivers and lakes don't actually contain the fictional creatures called "fish". They are merely the creation of the local tourist boards trying to pull in foolish visiting anglers

    What tinder to wrap around a ferro rod?

    Is the tape for fire lighting, or is it just a handy place to wind some tape that can be used for repairs? I used to wrap tape around the tube from effervescent Vit-C, which I used to carry sugar for my tea. Tape was not used in the tea brewing, it was just a good place to carry it. As for...

    Legality and Perception of EDC's

    @Paul_B "The more you know, the less you carry" Mors Kochanski That said, I EDC tweezers, whistle, lighter, and micro LED on my key ring, a SAK in my pocket, often a single 123A torch and if I have a day bag, a FAK. The interesting thing about EDC tools, if you have them, you often find uses...
