Getting ready for the New Year, eventual received my Swedish Army LK70 Rucksack (MilitaryMart customer service could do with a good spring clean) at £22.50, was having no joy in find anything that was comfortable even getting on for £200, but the LK70 has more than enough space and initial impressions are that is will be more than comfortable enough, but proof will be when using in anger for the first time.
Also made a start on my Ammo stove, just need to fabricate something to enable the chimney to attach, then its either rivets or welding to attach the parts, so far I have only had to buy the ammo tin, everything else was found in the shed or garage including the chimney (was original the legs from a metal bunk bed that I got cheap when I needed some metal for my trailer) I had been using on top on my trailer to attach my canoe, but being round wasn't the easiest to use so had replaced with square box section. Any suggestions on how to join 2 tubes of the same size, either shrinking one end or expanding the other.

Depending on thickness, grind out a few milli on the outside of one tube, and the inside of the other (all the way around one end of each). Then they'll slot together.
I'm still around Simon. I think I managed a couple of hours before I stabbed myself. Of course it could be a blur for you as you were high on painkillers after falling off your bike... Were you trying to get hold of me about the squirrel cooker sheath? Or have I just reminded you in a subtle way.
I'll be at the January meet, haven't quite decided about the extra day yet. Might wait until New years plans and weather forecasts have been investigated,

Actually your sheath is finished and sat in my Bergen waiting for the Jan meet
Cool, let me know how much I owe you.
I'm charging you by the joke, mate. Every time you joke about my falling off the bike, or getting up late in the mornings... that ups the price
All joking aside, no charge buddy
you know it makes sense three nights
As I said not sure yet. Been working on my hatchet using pen and neoprene backed wet and dry. Gone through a piece of 240 and a bit of 320 grit. Still not much sharper. Fits in the mask better now, must be getting smaller! I'll bring the sharpening gear with me. I have loads of space in the new Honda.

Just as well, not sure I could afford it!
