Bushcrafting trolley

[firebreather]

dose ur other half have a matching one ?

Not yet but after having a play I have come up with a few designs for my own and i will be working on/ bodging one together at some point.

Right who still has an old silver cross pram cuz they had the best wheels for bogeys when i was a nipper

To do list

get back in touch with ventile and order some material
find a supplier for titainium tubing
find suitable wheels and tyre combo (like an off road pram but with heavier weight capacity)
design make then re-design the bag and re-make it all.
Figure out a way of using the trolley to strap my hammock to with an extra pole to use for the other end
design a hidden sheath in the frame for a billhook ala sword cane.
pay a fortune for all the bits, use it once then go back to my trusty bergan

Actually a certain (small) section of the bushcraft community have been using a very similar item to this for a good few year to carry heavy & unweildy equipment across some pretty daunting terrain. They have used them in the most atrocious conditions from desert to arctic (or near enough)sometimes for days at a time. Hand drawn, although there are self propelled versions available, lightweight, relaitvely cheap and extremely rugged I'm amazed these havn't caught on on a big way.
There is one up for grabs on Evilbay now here

Greg - already told you I've got the wheels sorted. Also got 5 spare Land wheels & tyres at the momnet.

Is this a group buy? And can we have it with double layer ventile? Does it have a separate pocket for the ubiquitous mil-spec Trangia? Have you put your runes on it yet?
Great Thread,

Dam it , you told me they was Yellow Lin , I dont want one now ,

But on a serious note I could really use one of these with my leg being the way it is , I almost didnt make it to the car coming home from middlewood , had a raging infection and even had to go to the docs ( I dont do Doctors if i can help it ) its still not right now, I wonder if the mud had anything to do with it.
