Fabsil is great for that. Done a smock of mine

Hello all, Recently purchased an Elwell hatchet. The handle came broken. I'm happy to replace it, gives me a small project. However I'm struggling to find a good replacement. Seems that the faithful FAIHA16 would work fine. Although cant find any in stock. The eye size looks to be around...

I used neatsfoot on a few leather sheaths to wet shape them. Worked great. Thats like 4mm thick tho

But to be fair. That pot you sent will last 4 or 5 more applications

BIG Thanks to Danceswithhelicopters, Lathered the hestra on the gloves. And reshaped them. Darkened the leather which is great! And not sticky at all. Before After Again. Big thanks

2x3 would be ideal I reckon.

After an awesome hammock camp

Hello Adam, im a new member here also. But already a huge fan. Was wondering the same around Yorkshire. For wild camping I use the peaks and sometimes the lakes. I've never been collared but always keep a low profile and never leave a trace. Woods is a bit different. I need to start asking...

So after recommendations from a few chaps in here, gunna spend the day reading the book. There's definitely harder ways to make a living
