    Aldi Down sleeping bag £40.00

    See these in aldi today. Anyone tried one as a summer bag? Can't imagine they are very warm but they look like they pack up pretty small for lightweight summer camps. Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk

    Tree ID please. Nothofagus?

    Found this tree at Saltram Park, Plymouth. Sort of looks like Beech with shorter, less pointy buds. Fruit also looks Beechy. Is it just a funny looking Beech, or a Nothufagus?

    Hand crank grinding stone

    I recently found this beauty at a car boot sale for the hefty sum of £5. Have learned very little about it, I know if we made my the Suffolk iron foundry, but that's pretty much the limit of my knowledge! I also can't seem to take the wheel off (which is blocking me from taking apart the case...

    New FAK

    Those trauma dressings look fantastic for self treatment. No extra tape or having to apply pressure to worry about as much. Might get some for my chainsaw FAK. Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk

    Leather thinning help

    I've recently started using a block plane set to the right depth. Works just the same as a skiving tool , without me needing to buy another tool. Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk

    Greater or Lesser Spotted? (Warning dead bird)

    Fairly normal sized hands. But yes, that's why I'm not sure. Plus, red colouring you can see is consistent(ish) with juvenile greater.

    Greater or Lesser Spotted? (Warning dead bird)

    Better safe than sorry! for the sake of writing two words, I'd sooner not start an argument.

    Greater or Lesser Spotted? (Warning dead bird)

    It certainly was! Had been standing dead for years, but was right next to a busy path and started shedding more bits than we were comfortable with.

    Greater or Lesser Spotted? (Warning dead bird)

    We felled a tree last summer (for safety reasons) and while I was de-limbing it I found this little fella in one of the crevices. He is very dried out so can't see for definite if it's a Greater or Lesser. He seems very small. Hoping someone with more knowledge has an idea...

    Can anyone ID this plant for me?

    You're right I think, looks like Guelder-rose. Thanks very much!

    Can anyone ID this plant for me?

    Found in Devon by woodland edge habitat. Looks like something in the rose family, but I really don't know what. Francis Rose has been no help at all unfortunately. Link to pictures

    Would you mind if I asked how much he charged for such an item?

    School me on Merino Wool t-shirts

    I think merino t shirts keep you cooler than cotton, and warmer than cotton when it's cold! Plus they don't smell as much. I wore the same one working for a week and a half once and it still didn't smell.

    Clinometer

    I used a clinometer app for my dissertation (which involved measuring tree heights, among other things). It does work very well, the app I used had a 'lock' system, where it would save the angle when held for a certain period of time. I also used a 30cm ruler lined up with the edge of the phone...
