nice video mate. Certainly shows how quick some good tinder can be made for a warming fire.

wow how does that work? air goes through the pipe or soemthing and blows onto the charcoal or something?

I think no 1

used a credit card sized one also with great sucess. I've personally made fire with just some dry grass/wood "paper" shavings mixed in and packed down densely, then kept the lense still for a fair time so it gets a nice coal going & then blown that to flame. One of the easiest most relaxing ways...

wow ducan! Thats a very versitile cook stove! Can i ask what you made the ring out of to fit the zebra top? Looks like some sort of tuna can / tin can?

Hi I was just wondering about some more definition on where we can and cannot go. OP says Does this mean that we are only allowed on the leader training field, or does this mean that the communal area is designated to PC11 and we are allowed to spread ourselfs out within the whole forrest? I'm...

field and trek are sports direct's camping / outdoors store and this is where you'll find most of their stock go. Its Karrimor brand and they sell it for £3. Its not bad. I think a light my fire firesteel works better (although I've not had the pleasure of using one) But i've definately lit some...

Thank you for the links. I'll be sure to check them out! What do you mean about the glyn farm place though? Hopefully something horrible didn't happen down there right? =( Thanks for the links! I'll have to check these out also to see my options!

Hmm.. that is interesting to know. I'll definatly take that into consideration. Thanks! Hmm.. well this definately is an idea. Even if we're limited to small woodstoves, this does sound a step in the direction we want. Also its a good point you've brought up that if an accident happens then...

I take the meets is reffering to a large group of members meeting up and doing all of this together? We wanted to aim it more towards just being us 3 and the trip revolving more along the lines of us learning the basics and finding out for ourselves. Well i'm actually based in the south east...

Hey guys. I need a hand finding somewhere to camp in the midlands with 2 other of my friends. It'll be our first outing ever so we're quite new to actually doing this. We've done our homework on what to bring etc, but we're a bit stuck on the finding a place to go. We're looking for an area...

Edit: Ah sod.. I made a typo in the title. Now I look like a right tit! Sorry all, I'll make a 2nd thread with corrected title Mods please delete! :)

looks gorgeous and very smooth on the finish! Great job!

i'd do either the 1st post option of wasing it with a wash made for waterproof items. Or do the cloth with luke warm water and leaving it to hang outside to air & dry. Also you might want to look into fabreeze which is made for getting rid of lots of smells in fabrics, which could very well...

anyone know how much they charge for shipping?

I don't know where you'd get one, But i'm quite a fan of the ontario sp50 mkII or sp46 ( a shorter version of the 50) there are some youtube video's here by this guy here (try to get over the amercian accent because he knows his stuff ;D ) Sp 46: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7keIZ5W5BE...

The only thing I don't like is that he uses quikclot. Quikclot binds to water molecles, which will help with more serious bleeding, but is not a good idea sometimes. If quikclot gets in your eyes, then it'll bind your eyes (for whatever reason, and yes it has happened in the past to people) then...

god thats gorgeous! Nice free find! ;D I bet it goes everywhere with ya

pretty sure there's some videos on youtube about it. Ray mears made some string out of a similiar plant that was very fiberous. If your gonna make rope though, i think you might need quite a bit of nettles xD

I know at least someone else thought of this ;P
