Phantom, Woodsmoke do a 3 day long bowyer course. I did it this summer and am now the proud owner of a flatbow make from ash. The course is taken by a gentleman called Werner Pfeifer from Namibia. The course covers all aspects of making the bow.... you start off with a stave of ash and over...

Could you put me down for 2 on the second unguaranteed list. Thank you

Thanks James...decision made!! :You_Rock_

After a lot of careful consideration (and literally hours searching this forum) I have decided to order an expedition hammock from Mosquito Hammock. The only nagging question remaining is will the insect netting on the hammock stop a scottish midge?! I know from this forum and speaking to...

Sorry Abbe, I'll stop mentioning books now!!! I've just ordered "A New Earth". Thanks for the recommendation.

Abbe, That books looks interesting. I will add it to my extensive "To buy and read" list! Just reading the reviewers comments on Amazon reminded me of "The Miracle of Mindfullness" by Thich Nhat Hanh. He is a vietnamese buddhist monk who in his book explores the importance of living in the...

All, If you are at all interested in this subject (as I passionately am) then I urge you, no make that beg you, to read a book called Ishmael by Daniel Quinn. It is the most profound book I have ever read. It looks at how we, as a culture not as a species, have ended up where we are...

Could I suggest that regardless of what sharpening stone/system you opt for (my personal preference is for the Japanese waterstones from Axminster)....you get a nice cheap knife to practice with before you do anything you would regret to your WS Woodlore. I've got a couple of the Frosts Mora...

Mark, I bought a wetterlings splitting maul about a year ago as I have a good source of firewood from an aquaintance in the F.C! (Lucky me.) The wood I get from him varies probably from about 4" up to about 18". The maul is superb for splitting them all. A hefty swing will easily split the...

What a coincidence... Walden is the book I am currently reading. (Second time around in a month). As soon as I finished it for the first time I gave the copy to my best mate (another societal dissident) and bought myself a new one and immediately started reading again. What a precious...

I'm curious.... I've been thinking about replacing my very cheap but reliable Eurohike :eek: tent with something that will get me even "closer to nature". I must admit that I love the idea of an Explorer Deluxe with a Hex fly. (Where I come from I'm used to horizontal rain and fancy the...

The mind boggles! ;)

Spot on Tantalus. As has been discussed in other threads (either here or on BB) banning knives, long bladed kitchen knives or otherwise, will not stop those intent on doing someone injury. If kitchen knives were banned I'm sure most households will have screwdrivers, or other potentially...

A very interesting debate... I don't necessarily agree with everyones point of view but it is refreshing to see such an important matter being discussed. I find it particularly disappointing that topics like this are constantly kept from the agenda of all of the mainstream media outlets. (I...

:rolmao: :rolmao: Adi no offence is meant by this remark but it would appear that your axe is second only in sharpness to your wit :nana: On a serious note though, thankyou all for your concern for my finger but really I think I deserve your scorn for what was a forseeable ax-ident...

What about your axe?! :naughty:
