http://www.mungosaysbah.com/2009/01/panoply-of-downloadable-bushcraft-e.html
A Panoply of Downloadable Bushcraft E-Books. I am a member of the online forum BushcraftUK.com.

Which offers a set of downloadable PDF format. E-books - well worth looking through. You are sure to find a few new ideas here and there. Foxfire Book 1 (40.mb). Net Making. (0.9mb). In The Wake. (12mb). How to make soap (0.15mb). Old Campi...

Redux: A Tutorial on How To Build a Coke Can Stove for Hiking, Bushcraft and Camping. I was just looking over my Coke can camping stove tutorial and thought it might be a good time to post it again - it is such an easy stove to make, and lots of fun. Okay, following up on a post about emergency preparedness. I saw a pile of Fondu Fuel bottles containing denatured alcohol. Boiling water is obviously important when camping or hiking or during a power outage. With one you can make hot drinks, heat meals...

Mungo Is Still Mad About Wool Blankets. So this is a rewrite of an older post. I'm going to start writing more again soon - but with the cold winter upon us here in Ontario, I wanted to share my Wool Blankets post again. Stay warm out there! So instead, I occasionally stop in at the neighbourhood thrift shop and browse the rack at the back of the floor where you can pick up used comforters, sheets and towels. Nearly every time I go there, there are one or two blankets waiting for me. A backpack can be qu...

* Mungo Says Bah * Bushcraft Blog: 20 Minute Knife Sharpening Board Tutorial
http://www.mungosaysbah.com/2010/12/20-minute-knife-sharpening-board.html
20 Minute Knife Sharpening Board Tutorial. This little project should take you about 20 minutes at most. Mors Kochanski recommends making one of these in his book 'Bushcraft' (of which I have a signed copy! I had all the ingredients needed in my basement: 600 grit wet and dry sandpaper, double-sided carpet tape, a scrap of wood for mounting the sandpaper, a cutting board (another scrap of wood), a pencil and a piece of paper. Then I carefully and evenly adhered the sandpaper roughly positioned over the w...

Here are a couple of spoons I carved from a single chunk of white ash (fraxinus americana) I gathered from the park behind where I live in Toronto. The already-dead tree had collapsed in a windstorm last year. To finish them, I soaked them in olive oil for a day. The tree was likely the victim of the Emerald Ash Borer. I used my Gransfors-Bruks Small Forest Axe to cut up the log, and my Mora ' Classic Original 1. Well, I've just discovered that Mora has restarted making and is selling the Mora 510. From ...

* Mungo Says Bah * Bushcraft Blog: Desperately Cleaning my MSR Dragonfly Stove & Then Realizing I'd Plugged It Into the Fuel Bottle Wrong To Begin With.
http://www.mungosaysbah.com/2009/07/desperately-cleaning-my-msr-dragonfly.html
Desperately Cleaning my MSR Dragonfly Stove and Then Realizing I'd Plugged It Into the Fuel Bottle Wrong To Begin With. It is a great stove, it can simmer or roar loudly on full bore. It can be very noisy, but I've not got any complaints about that. The arms fold out and spring-load back to the element, to allow it to store down small. The arms keep the burner off of the ground to help insulate the unit, and the arms fold over to make a pot holder. I pulled the fuel pump out of the fuel cannister, filled...

Living History? | John Lambtons 68th Foot
https://lambtons.wordpress.com/living-history
18th Century Living History. John Lambtons 68th Foot. Although many groups use the term living history to describe battle re-enactments and drill displays, we as living historians aim to recreate a moment from the past to the best of our ability. This means from the time we arrive at a location right through to the point we leave. This means eating accurate foods/rations, sleeping in woollen blankets, at times under the stars. 9654; No Responses. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Enter your comment here.
