Same boat here.
Thanks guys. This is exactly what I was needing
I have been reading up on making charcuterie. This is making proscuettio (sp), salami, fresh sausages. Has anyone here made any of those? I still fight making the perfect jerky so I don't know why...
I hunted Alaska a few years ago with my native brother in law. We got a caribou and he took some thin slices, put some salt/pepper on it and hung it in the trees. When we went back by there two...
An ex of mine used to make Chocolate and biscuits every so often. I didn't turn away from it, but it's something I haven't missed either. Her kids and mine devoured them.
Great news friends!
Congrats and good job.
Interesting. I seem to remember years ago someone made a tool similar to this for Boy Scouts. The biggest issue was that you had to have two of them to do anything because the knife and the fork...

I am very glad you and Mrs are getting things set up and done. Good Job! I know it's been a long time coming.
I am getting worried that we won't have much moisture here. We haven't gotten much snow at all. Wife and I are getting ready to plant our garden. After last year I am excited to put in a widely...
Supposedly everything they make is US, or it used to be that way. I had heard that they moved some items overseas, but I don't know for sure.
I really like my CRKT knives. I prefer some of their older models, but the new ones are good knives too. I am looking at getting their new Freyer Ax/Hatchet. I'm not sure how useful it will be,...
It took me a day- or two- to remember I was looking for this. Here is a study guide for the HAM radio technician test. I know the thread is about listening and you don't need a license to do that,...
QRZ.com has a real good set of tests that change until you see all of the questions.
I will see if I can find the link to a book/paper that answers every one of the questions for the Technical...
This idea is pretty cool. I have a binder with things I don't usually do. Having access to hard copies of these things would be pretty handy. I guess I feel like if the electricity is out, one of...
Sold more of my precious time so I could have a roof over my head. I don't think this pays out near well enough for the portion of my life it's taken.
Seems to me that being self sufficient with these lay outs requires a couple of things. First, a couple of growing seasons. Up here in the north, we get one season that lasts 4 months and then we...
If animals taste like what they eat (antelope and Sage grouse tasting sage-y) Then do these chickens taste like ---- (compost) ?
IMHO, They are too heavy and of singular use to be much good for any kind of a IFAK. I don't even carry them in my EMS jump bag.

I would like to point out that what people carry in the first aid kit varies due to the training they have as well as their plans if they are using it for SHTF. I carry a jump bag in all of my...
There is a thread on the good/bad of the Celox/Quikclot stuff on here too, it's a good read. Sorry I don't have the link handy.

No thankfully, I haven't had to use the Halo either. Knock on Wood, we run a pretty mundane service here. Lots of nursing home transfers, a few car wrecks that aren't too terrible, and a few Heart...
I agree with KFILLY. CAT are the ones we run with also and I carry them in my own jump bag. I haven't used them in a real situation thankfully, but others in our group have and say that they...
I keep coming back to this thread and re-reading it. I hope Smokin works on 1moretoy's question. I guess this is a bump in a way.
I think they meant to stop the powder, but they way they wrote the protocols doesn't allow anything with QuickClot in it so Pads are out also.
The reason we have been given are two: 1)The burns that you talk about and 2) the ER docs don't want to break any scabs that are on a wound to clean out the Quickclot. They have seen infections they...
