Various Books

[Blundstoned Love]

Hi

Having a bit of a clearout on the bookshelves.

I have the following up for swaps, individually or in combination.

As per the photo

The Ultimate Outdoorsman’s Workshop - Monte Burch (I have more than one of these available) - One copy GONE
The Complete Practical Guide to Camping, Hiking and Wilderness Skills - Peter G Drake
Extreme Sleeps - Adventures of a Wild Camper - Phoebe Smith - PENDING
The Gameshooter’s Pocket Guide - Michael Brook
The Photographic Guide to Identify Woodland Wildflowers (HB) - Roger Phillips - GONE
Wise Words and Country Ways - traditional advice and whether it works today (HB) - Ruth Binney - GONE
The Wilderness Trail - The George “Bubba” Hunt Story - PENDING

I only reckon the trade value at a quid a piece (but £2 for the Extreme Sleeps), so am not looking for much in terms of swaps.

As for swaps I’d like a firesteel and I need a piece of brown leather 6”x4” (about 2mil thick) but I don’t know what the value is for either.

Other than that I’m open to options.

How much to buy and post?

 

[DaveBromley]

I can sort the leather out, not dyed at the moment but can be,

What colour do you want?

I have mahogany or tan.

Interested in Extreme sleeps and the wilderness trail book

[Tengu]

Ive got a firesteel

Id like the First book and the wise words one

Award95 - not really interested in selling per se mate I'd arther do swaps - sorry (unless there's any you deperately need)

Dave - They're yours - Mahogany please

Tengu - have you got a pic please - sorry to sound fussy, but it's for my nipper - have put pending on those books tho'

 

[Tengu]

Hah! Im busy revising at the moment, and will be until Thursday.

Its this one



wooden handle, a thick one

 

[Blundstoned Love]

Thanks Tengu - what I actually meant was the kind of steel that you hit against flint.


However the munchkin likes it, so you have a deal.

And good luck with the exam(s)!

 

[Blundstoned Love]

In case anyone else fancies any of the books and is wondering about a swap, there is the flint-type firesteel as mentioned, but I'm also partial to pouches- military, leather - allsorts.

Oh and I need some nuts and bolts. Bolts 4-6 inch long approx 1/2 inch dia plus nut - need four of them.

And two D-shaped steel/iron handles - 3 to 4 inch long.

And to be honest, wave something random at me and you might spark my interest.

Pm sent. Couldn't get the pic to send though so here they are.

Cheers

Jon

 

[Blundstoned Love]

Thanks Jon - I think they'd do fine.

What do you have in mind for a swap?

 

[JonE]

How about the wild flower book and a copy of the ultimate outdoorsman workshop? I might also have a piece of broken file somewhere if you want it to have a go at making a basic flint striker like this http://www.bushcraftuk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=121745 I'll have a look in the morning and let you know if you do.

Cheers

Got lots of various desert DPM pouches for trade, small to big, including a green yoke.
Would like your ultimate outdoors workshop book.
Let me know if interested, and what size you need if so.
Ta.

 

[Blundstoned Love]

Jon - the books are yours and that's kind about the file piece

Phil - I am intersted and do have another workshop book. Ideally I'd like a pouch about the size you could get a baked bean tin in - or slightly larger. Happy with anything tho ' - pouches are always useful.
