Some cracking photos there, bringing back the memorys of a great weekend for me and finally getting to meet some of the people I have known online for quite a while. I didn't realise the snap at Waylands' (Have I put that apostophe in the correct place Gary?!) huge tarp was being taken, probably because, as with so many people, the conversation was that interesting I didn't have a clue what was going on around me!
I could have spent hours in Waylands' camp looking at his kit and all manner of good stuff, and that stuff in the bottle that did a passaround was quite an interesting thing too! I did mean to ask though, what exactly is the brass strip in your craftwork bucket thingy, is it a measure of some sort?
We tried the heated wire around the bottle to create a candle holder but with little success, also the method with parrafin and string, but again it was a partial success. I think we should probably try using a wine bottle next time. Also, Goose showed a quick red bull stove and he wanted to show us his fire demonstration, but nothing seemed to want to work this weekend and had to be discussed in more of a theoretical way. And the less said about Ther**te Br**dhead arrows the better!
A great weekend, I can't wait for the next one, and many thanks to Ratbag for ferrying me there and back and putting up with me getting sidetracked resulting in us leaving an hour or so later than planned!
