I have a Gamo Hunter 440 .22 calibre. It's full-sized, relatively heavy at 3 kg and with a bit of a kick (and quite loud - a silencer would have been good), delivers 1000 ft/s and from target practice I have found it to be quite accurate (making allowances for my shooting, of course *cough*). I pur...

Join Landyzone (landyzone.co.uk) or just view as a guest, mountains of info on there. If you do join don't forget to introduce yourself (no need to mention prepping) and to use the search facility (otherwise the 'locals' will give you a good bit of grief). There is a lot of good info on there and pl...

If you want it to power delicate electronics (TV's laptops etc) best to go for a pure sine wave type (but more expensive) for more rugged kit (lights etc) the cheaper type will suffice

Microwave oven should work too as it is designed to keep radio waves in (just unplug it so no one accidently zapps all your kit!!!)

MTP - Multi Terrain Pattern, replaced CS95 (combat soldier 1995)

Used one for many months out in Iraq, certainly worked well out there (plently of sun) and had to add cold water before use. Most of us modified ours by shortening the outlet pipe so you don't have to raise it so high to get your head under it (you need a beam/bar or branch at least 3ft above your h...

I'm intending to do something with batteries along the lines of a UPS but bugger that will power my PC and accessories and keep the broadband router online during short-term power cuts (a couple of days max) If you have a local powercut your UPS may keep your router running however if the local are...

I don't have a problem with a very thin smear of copper grease on the hub to stop the wheel seizing, I do it myself (just make sure it can't get onto the brake disks). Even if you just put grease onto the exposed threads it will get into the nut when you remove it, grease can also attract dust/grit ...

Don't put grease/oil on wheel studs unless the manual specifically says to do so. Eventhough you think you are doing the correct thing you can actually overstress the studs/nuts. Wheel torques are based on clean dry threads, grease them and for the same torque you are actually putting more tension o...
