Out and about

[Mrcwcb]

Hi guys not posted on a while but I've been out in a local woods for the last couple of Tuesdays , initially was just to chill out a little but I've decided to make a little camp where I can take my 6year old and 5 year old to to teach them a little about bushcraft

Few pictures to show what's been happening

That was the first wee chill out day then I went back up the following week

Made a bow saw to collect some better logs

And a wee bush craft chair to relax on

A wee mallet to help with the build

Upgraded my pot hanger

Started on my second wall

Camp tools

Small stock pile

Looks wonderfully peaceful. Any road noise?

No just the odd person walking the dog. But I'm in the bush a bit so it's really only the dogs that can see/hear me 👌🏼

Brilliant!

With both the walls it really starts to look a bit more permanent and camp like...

Keep it up and keep us posted please..👍

Hey guys wee update from yesterday

Despite the crazy rain fall in Glasgow I Managed to brace it and head up the woods I managed to build the second wall just need to back full the gaps now. I also built a little table to sort out the cooking while the fires running.

Next on the camp agenda is to line the fire pit at the bottom and to use the brick I found in an upturned tree root to make a surround on it that why I can place a grill on it to. After that I'm going to make a tripod and use it to support a ridgepole to build a lean to but I'm going to use my kids help with that so there really involved to

Second walls up

Wee table to use for cooking

Works a treat

The bricks I found will be great to build a fire surround

Dogs wee treats for being a good girl

Updates to come 😉

Looks a great spot to bring the small ones.

Great score with the bricks. They'll go a long way to cooking success. I'd be happy to take little kids there.

Just a suggestion: away off in the distance, you might want to organize a discrete place
when somebody "has to go!"

Hard to remember the last time I had a meal cooked over an open fire.

Absolutely brilliant, I need to get out and work on something like that myself 👍
