The Sherwood 4" one, if I used 3" feathers it would work, but the lateral movement is in by positioning the feather in the clamp so a 4" feather in a 4" clamp can only go in one place

 

[ozzy1977]

I have been looking at the cartel one as a replacement.

 

[Big Stu 12]

Oh my one easly takes 5" fletches

 

[ozzy1977]

What one do you have?

 

[Big Stu 12]

I am not sure the name of it I brought it second hand from here ....

 

[Big Stu 12]

Well after seeing a few of these... in action

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/181140287190?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649

I have decided to get one... not really a gas fan but for the cost and size a handy leave in the car one... for when I want a brew if I have nowt else...

 

[crosslandkelly]

Can't go wrong at that price, and always handy to have.

 

[ozzy1977]

That's the same as mine, the gas can will cost as much but they are much more versatile than hexi.

 

[Big Stu 12]

Yeah I know the gas is expensive, in the cold would rather use hexi, lol, but it will get chucked in to the glove box with a canister.

I just dont think for the price you can go wrong...

 

[crosslandkelly]

You'll get a few brews from this. http://www.outdooraction.co.uk/camp...-pd-5447.php?gclid=CIj8m7HIq7wCFXGWtAodMRUAxg

 

[Big Stu 12]

I'll pop down The Range..about 5 min walk and get the smallest one they got..lol

 

[ozzy1977]

That's a very good price. I paid £5 for a 250g one.

 

[Big Stu 12]

I cant remember how much they were in The Range, but dont think they were too bad, I'll check when I get one..LOL.. but it does say that due to the Chinese new year it may take until March 3rd for delivery, lol

 

[ozzy1977]

I think that the ones I the range are only butane, thats wht they are cheap.

 

[Big Stu 12]

more then likely, but as its not my main user, and will prob will not get used for months, it will do, lol

 

[Big Stu 12]

Just been getting bored this evening ... been doing something I rarely do..

Watching You Tube..... why I do it, I dont know...lol

Why are there so many wanabees, and so many people that make videos, for it its quite plain to see that they waffle on for hrs about something , make so many basic mistakes, they dont know what they dont know...

Funny thing is from the comments about the vid's nor do the people watching, and leaving such comments that they agree and love the content of it...........

 

[ozzy1977]

Well I guess the numpties need to go somewhere to big each other up

 

[Big Stu 12]

lol yeah..... I know there is some good information and some good broadcasters that give out loads of free info,

but I am seeing more and more that fit in to the worst part of the what do we know circle.. the "Dont know what they dont know" part of it...

 

[ozzy1977]

True enough, it does get harder by the day to filter out the dross from the gold

 

[Iambosscat]

Its even worse to work out what's dross and what's gold if your learning, I watch a lot of engineering documentary's on you tube and they are excellent but then I suppose its not Joe Bloggs with a video camera and I know about engineering. Bush crafty stuff I tend to watch Dave Cantebury, Ray Mears and MCQ Bushcraft, these guys seem to be sensible to me and talk sense I have learnt a lot from watching these, well I think I have, I'm sure I will find out this year when I try and do it for myself. You have to be careful with YouTube as you can start watching a video about cheese and 30 mins later suddenly be watching a video about O ring Failures on space shuttles
