Hello everyone, thank you for accepting me to Bushcraft UK. I am a beginner wild camper, motorcyclist and cyclist. I also enjoy making pre-historic tools from deer bones / antlers and enjoy Neolithic fire making using flint, marcasite and various local tree fungi.

Love to see some more of your tools.

Do you make needles?

Hi Tengu, I was about to add some pictures of tools I have made, but unfortunately cannot find the option to do that, it only gives option for an http link.

Always a pleasure to meet somebody from the old county.
<sigh> it's been a while since I was in Stroud. One for the road and one for the hill!

Hi Tengu, The antlers I have was bought from ebay to make needles etc. The bones were from 2 road kills last year, which I have used all the leg bones / sinew (cannon bones) for knives / spears, so am out of bones at moment, except for a load of vertebrae and ribs. I kept the heads for antler/skull display. Unfortunately, no red dear down this way, which I would really like, as much bigger bones and antlers, mainly Roe and Sika in this area.

Hi, thank you, I now live a few miles from Stroud in a village called Nailsworth.

Hi Bishop, great picture. I haven't lived in Stroud since the 70s, and it still hasn't changed much. I now live a couple of miles away in Nailsworth.
