*The* Gift-It-On Thread

[georann]

Just putting in my two penneth but do you think we should introduce a no holding rule to prevent this happening further. It helps the thread roll smoother and makes it more interesting if there are lots of gifts moving about. Just my thought, feel free to dissagree

Will get em to you in forthwith. PM'd

Think the only reason there was worry about hoding the items was due to the slowness of my response. Apologies.

[Mesquite]

That's a nice little fire starting kit Tim. I don't think it'll hang around too long.

Just as a tip for a replacement firesteel you can use a section from a hacksaw blade

 

[effzedess]

Very useful kit Tim, hope your lad's feeling better in time for Xmas

As this has not gone how about these?

3 x Welsh Bushcrafter Leather Pouches made by John Fenna

 

[Harvestman]

Can I take the pouches please Tank?

I'll put up an offer as soon as I get the pictures uploaded.

 

[Harvestman]

Ok, my offer (I hope it goes down better than my previous one!)

One of the following:

1. Two files suitable for blademaking. Both 8mm thick. One has been shaped already. The bigger one is a foot long

Or
2. Another pair of files. The coarse rasp is 7mm thick and the smaller file 4-5mm thick. The rasp is a foot long, plus tang.

Or
3. A set of old drill bits, with various tips. All these bits have square bases, rather than the modern hexagonal sorts, and they don't fit any of my drills. I've tried for a close up of the tips.

Or
4. A set of firelighting materials, to include cramp balls, dried birch polypore, bulrush head (whole one), fatwood, tyre inner tube, and anything else I can lay my hands on that might burn (!). No photo at present, but could do one on request.
