Yet another bloomin stove- when the wife finds out she will go ape!

Bought the Kovea Spider as it was half the price of the Optimus Vega I really wanted. Now I have bought the Vega off someone on the OM classifieds- used once, with an Optimus food pouch cozy thing and a firesteel...

Oh well, one of them will be up for sale soon (assuming the wife finds out that is!)

;)
 
Yet another roll of Stein throwline, this time 2.2mm

http://www.frjonesandson.co.uk/prod...es/stein-skyline-dyneema-throwline-2-2mm-50m/

Great to splice ! (The 1.8 is better than zing-it / Lash it IMO ) But aint that cheap when you get to the checkout. Think £25 rather than £16

Also..
zipper and grosgrain for my hammock project :naughty: 99.9% sourced now. If anyone knows what Brandon (warbonnet) uses for the pull out cords (Not shock cord ) on a blackbird? Let me know !
Or if the small split rings (keyrings) come from the fishing suppliers?
Cheers !
Jon

The pull out cords on mine are white shock cord, the loops the cord is attached to is grosgrain ribbon. I have split rings rings on mine, roughly 10mm across.

Can I have the good lady wife's phone number as I would live to be the one to tell her about your, not another stove purchase. Epic and got everything else there I'd MasterCard lol
 
Well, I didn't buy anything, but it's my birthday today so I got some nice prezzies.
A Condor Bushlore, a Ben Orford medium crook knife, a Snugpak Sleeper Lite, a zebra billy can, a Lansky puck and Bushcraft by Mors Kochanski.

A good haul I would say.
 
Ordered up 3 paraffin lamps for the Suffolk group, so we have light in the dunny and around camp.
Also ordered me a fenix e01 torch to replace my old maglite solitare which does not like recharagable batteries and a bahco wrecking knife
