Was a good meet chaps!
Nice to meet a few new faces and see some of Kevs new makings!
It was a little damp on Sunday but as was commented on; for November you couldnt really ask for much better, as i was scraping the ice of the windscreen this morning i was thinking it was rather lucky!


Cheers all.

hey all,

Yeah the littel folding BBQ Jason got there is exactly the type i was thinking of when we were chatting - its not quit as variable as yours and the inverted triangle shape of the void means you dont get so much bed building up but i reckon it'll be cracking.
Having said that been using ground fires and a tripod with cauldron for cooking all weekend and that worked stonkingly well! not very portable though.

Im back from the xmas market for a month or so before the big move, kevs strikers sold well as part of a little firestarter pouch. Lots of people liked playing with them and the char cloth.

Nice vid wolf - the colour enchancement gizmo really brought out the congtrast (i think its rather tlike the loudness button on amps raising the top and bottom hehe )

As for me scarpering off - i will be but you wotn get rid of me that easily! I'll be keeping an eye on things in here!

:)

hi all,
while packing ive found a good sized sheet of leather. Its not veg tanned or anything particularly nice - it has a slightly plasticy finish. But i have used it for making several axe masks and so on. Anyhow i dont want to transport it, if anyone wants it and can pick up in cambridge soon will swap for a pint/firesteel or francly anything small item for the principal of the thing!
Its about 1m x 1m - the machine grain is visable so to be honest you not likely to want anything more than purely functional items. bt its good to practice on!
PM me
