Hi Tom,

That would be great, I'll put your workshop on the list. After seeing you doing this on the last weekend, I'm sure others will want to try it as well.

updated the original post with some new information.
We're looking for workshopgivers and people who can aid with:
1. Bringing a wood supply (also for some long-log fires)
2. Helping with setting up camp or breaking up camp afterwards.

I can definetly help with breaking up camp(if I can get to the train station somehow), might also be able to help setting up camp but that depends how late i'm home on friday.

Hi All,

I can definetly help with breaking up camp(if I can get to the train station somehow), might also be able to help setting up camp but that depends how late i'm home on friday.

I can off course help with breaking up camp, and setting up, if I caan take friday off... Stijn, be happy to pick you up and drop you off at a station in the neighboorhood. Just give me a shout.

I also can get hold of a trailer so if nessesary, I can also transport firewood.

Hey guys, Stein, Simon en Niels, I've put you in the group that's going to help clear out the campsite. I'd expect that it will take untill 18.00 hours at the most, including a trip with materials that we'd need to bring back to storage. Would that be ok? It would be great when you guys could help out with that.

Yes that will be fine.... What time can we arrive on friday to help? And any need for a trailer behind the car?

Hi all,

Thijs, looking foreward to give a workshop together with you about different kinds of angling methods.

I will bring some gear with me, like nets and traps, bates, hooks etc.

Maybe we can combine it with some rabbiting methods?

Please pm me for further brainstorming.


Best regards,

Jan aka Penvisser,

Oh, and I can probably bring some firewood

does anyone by chance have a dutch oven? as I have a long eared furry little creature in the shed.....
also anyone inthrested in the untanned skin?

[Jurjen Knoester]

Hey Stein,

I've got a dutch oven, you can use that one. Or follow the dutch oven workshop, or buy one at the location. Plenty of choices :-)

[stijnb]

ok then, might even buy one after first using one

still doubting about the size and legs or not(for indoor use) and an african potjie also seems pretty intresting

see ya friday

I'll be taking some bushcrafty DVD-material (including some Kochanski & hard to get Ray Mears' Track's episodes) as well with me to Hilversum so if anyone is up for a trade (other bushcraft-titles, a spoon knife, or something else to barter) let me know!

Cheers,

Tom
