I suppose I should introduce myself.
I've been an outdoor person the last 35 or so years, with an interest in survival/primitive tech for most of that time. I'm somewhat active in the Swedish Survival Guild (Svenska Överlevnadssällskapet, a club for studying and teaching wilderness survival).
My main interests are in long term skills, with an unreachable goal of being good enought to actually walk out with an axe and a knife and never comming back again, and not by quietly dying in an abandoned bus a few weeks later. So I study both the "survival" bits, the crafts bit, and the primitive tech bits, wanting to know enought to make replacements for as much as possible of my gear.
Currently I live in what is logically the middle of Sweden, but by summer I'll be moving closer to what is geographically the middle of Sweden (Jämtland).
