[a1993h]

Well, I find myself browsing this forum and watching bushcrafty videos on youtube more than I actually DO bushcraft activities. Ive nothin to do today so what can I do around the house or in the garden??

Convert the shed into a workshop and start making bits of kit out of bake bean cans and such. really I did that once I got bored watched some youtube vid on making a charcoal stove out of can and decided to have a go.....by the time id finished however it needed three people to lift it, but could boil a litre of water in 9/10th of a second or process a kilo of iron ore in a hour. I had loads of fun though and it keep me occupied for weeks

You can practice tying knots anywhere.

Backyard bushcraft. It's about all I get time for these days. Bow drill and other firelighting techniques. Spoon carving on the sofa, cordage. But do yourself a favour, don't look at Paracordists stuff. You'll need a second mortgage to pay for all the paracord you'll get through.

I've been playing with charcoal making at home.

i should be moving soon to a house with a garden where i shall probably be doing most of my bushcraft skill developement, and its got a large brick shed type thing attached to the front of the house, which is probably about 2 meters by 3 meters and has plenty of height, and i have definately 100% taxed it for workshop use, might have to sound proof it
