£100... What shall I get?

[Mesquite]

Had some money paid back to me today that I'd lent a friend some time ago

I've decided that it's time I spent a bit on myself but the trouble is I haven't the faintest idea what to get Surprisingly there's no kit I can think of that I need or want.

So I thought I'd throw it open to you good folks... what suggestions would you make for me to spend my money on?

Note it can't be more than £100 excluding p&p.

Take the wife/partner out for a nice meal and sod buying more kit.

^ Good suggestion The payback will last a lot longer than some kit.

 

[leon-1]

Buy the good lady some flowers and sit on the rest for a rainy day.

 

[BJJJ]

Who am I to suggest any piece of kit would have more value than the previous suggestions

Nah... I do that regularly enough that I get plenty of brownie points etc

This is some 'it's mine, all mine' money

Put it towards a course?

Project cash.

Buy knackered mini maglite for conversion to fire piston.

Parasilk for making a zoot suit or drawstring bags /bag lanterns.

Leather for making simple fold over moccasins.

Materials for making a kydex press and the kydex itself.

Ventile for making a jacket or trousers.

I too would say put towards a course. Failing that, hillbill makes an awesome knife, put it towards that perhaps.

What about a decent saw Steve - you can get a really nice "one man" 3 foot hand sharpenable cross cut for about that price - including all the files etc. that you might need...

[Chris the Cat]

Could you forge for a day and come away with your own, one -of-a kind blade with Dave Budd for that?
Best.

You could do a flint knapping day with John Lord for that or loads of other craft days workshops for the money.

You could buy a group sized chute/tarp set up, and one of those muckle great karhai (sp?) that PatrickM uses as his hanging firebowl

Mad money's fun

I'm tending towards a course... possibly Robin Wood's spoon carving foundation course

As for communal kit... I'm pretty well sorted for that
