I always wear a bracelet woven from 35 metres of tungsten wire, in case I have to improvise a lamp filament when I'm in the bush.

Don't know about how many Bushcrafters it takes to change a light bulb but I'm told it takes 31 feminists to change a light bulb.

One to change the bulb

Thirty to talk about the passive role of the socket.

I hadn't, but by gum, his ropework is first class and those bracelet grommets, whooooo..to form these 6 stranded he uses a pilot or a sleeper wire as a central core which is gradually removed bit by bit as he backlays the working strand . very clever and dexterous marlinspike stuff. I bet not many of todays riggers can do that

I have a pair of the little earrings he made for me, and they are incredible workmanship :D

You'd enjoy his company Ceeg, he's friends with Des Pawson too :cool:

If I won a million I'd invite all of the people that I know with skills like them for a week's holiday and just enjoy the company and the conversation :D

How many Klingons does it take to change a light bulb?




Two.

One to change the bulb, and the other one to shoot him in the back and take the credit.
