Egg-sellent!! I wasn't expecting that, I thought it was going to be a factory made thing. Didn't realise you started the thread Patrick, otherwise I would have realised it would be special! Good job! :You_Rock_

I was just thinking that Patrick hadn't been on for a while, and there he goes again with yet another amazing contribution. What's next, a GPS made of twigs with only leaves as tools?

The Hadza used a hollowed out ostrich egg, corked with grass, as a water container in one Ray Mears episode (like you all haven't seen it :lmao: ), but that's a cut above.

Nice one Patrick...........I have just been reading a Wilbur Smith book, where the bushmen were using ostrich eggs as water containers. I bet any bushman would be proud of that one...............Jon
