Rubbish kit

  • Come along to the amazing Summer Moot (21st July - 2nd August), a festival of bushcrafting and camping in a beautiful woodland PLEASE CLICK HERE for more information.
i have a small shoulder bag that you could use for foraging, a survival blanket, some pacemaker beads that i made, 2 cyalumes, 3 led keychains, a pair of thin wool nike pro gloves, some cheap lanyards, 100m of fishing line, a 2oz tobacco tin, some bike inner tyre (good for fire lighting, so i have read), a KFS set that looks like a SAK, a crab fishing line that is missing the hook, some fishing hooks, a para cord keyfob thing, a whistle, an unopened compact toothbrush (off a flight to australia), and a belt pouch that will fit a 2oz tobacco tin.

after going through all my stuff for ages that is what i came up with :)
if you already have some of the things, then just let me know,
just pm me your address.

Definitely, I don't think I'll need the shoulder bag, unless its green as the other small bag I have isn't green so it would be really useful if it is :D I'll PM my address.

EDIT: we should re-name this thread the "Lets help out the skint students" thread :p
 
You mention you quite like fixing things......me too........I also enjoy making thing, usually from waste/scrap/end of use items and materials........

Take a look around this and other forums, the net in general, even youtube has some good instructional vids on making kit.

penny stove...for instance.....cheap light and efficient! You'd be surprised just how much kit you don't need, and what you do you can mostly make or adapt yourself......ok I know that there is better gear to be had, but cheap is always a good start till you can afford or you get an offer.

Hopefully you'll get enough given from the good folks on here, but you are going to be short of something and the above is always an option.

To me, making do and adapting goes part and parcel with bushcraft, being able to make a working stove in the middle of nowhere, if needs be, is one of the skills one carries with them.....unlike the primus stove you may have inadvertantly left at home, which is why you now need to use the skills you have developed;)!
