It's highly probable the I'll have my Swedish snow smock* up for sale/trade at the Meet.



* dyed olive, button front, 'cavernous' pockets, hood fits over the average leather bush hat.

Hope to pop along to this one during the day on Saturday.

If anyone's feeling pedagogic I'd really appreciate some tips on tying a ridgeline for a tarp - I've been working on my Evenk hitch which seems to be OK for one end, but I'm struggling to tie of t'other end while keeping the tension on the ridgeline... if anyone's mastered Cobweb's powercinch I'd love a demo, or any other solutions :)

I've got a very easy way to get really good tension on the ridge line that I'm happy to show you :)

Hello all. I know this is cheeky but there's a link to an axe at Argos on for £2.99, none in stock anywhere in my area. Address here;

http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/7001545.htm

I'm desperate for one of these, if anyone is already planning on getting one and they have an extra in stock could you please grab me one! If you can get an extra one and bring it to the meet for me I'd really appreciate it as this is about all I can afford at the minute...I'd be happy to throw in something bushcrafty as well as the £2.99 in return if anyone is getting one! Thanks in advance to anyone that can source one, no worries if not though! I feel a right toerag for asking but it's worth a shot.

Cheers, Chad
