    OSINAF - Ghetto forge build-along

    Love the new ghetto forge mate. It just goes to show what can be done with very little and shows people that even though you've moved a few times recently you 'can' still do.

    Can I make my own rucksack ?

    Can I make my own rucksack ? This has been bothering me since I joined the forum as I cannot afford the high £ for even a second hand one.:eek: Also more recently what about a bivvi (bivy, bivi) bag can I make one of those too as they too are quite highly priced at the moment ? Anyone...
