Thanks TwoDo that's useful stuff and I appreciate the time you took to write it. My grandad was a bee keeper, he died when I was 1 so I never knew him, but starting a hive or two is definitely on my longer term to do list. I was speaking to my dad yesterday and suddenly thought to ask a couple of qu...

ah, the wax factory! that's were I got mine!

Yeah that would be useful thanks.

I was watching one of Dave Canterbury’s vids on youtube ages ago and saw him using Murray’s Beeswax (marketed as a hair care product) and twine to make a grease lamp. It burned for a long time and I thought it would be useful to add as an item in my kit, but wasn’t high up on the agenda. Seeing it o...

Useful vid, thanks, I didn't know they made stainless nalgene bottles! Shame they don't realize that that's one reason people go for them and give it a heat resistant lid and pickup.

The trouble with a plastic bottle is, yes you can boil water in the metal cup but you've still just touched the untreated water running down the side of the bottle from where you filled it up.

This will give a more stable base and solid platform for the bridge (red) brick - yes I k...

I always go for plain olive green everything (bags and clothing) for the following reasons: * Black tactical gear makes you look like a SWAT/police/special ops nutter. * Cammo of any kind stands out more so in public and again you look like an army nutter or in a SHTF situation a well kitted up targ...

If its the extra weight that a three wheeler can carry then you're better off with a trailer (I might get the one below as some stage). It would be cheaper, easier to store, better of road, and you give yourself more options as you can dismount your gear and hoist it up a tree (for example) then bur...
