Great stuff Mike, Subbed as well. I look forward to seeing more and I personally enjoy gear reviews because I'm new to Bushcraft and swore not to run out and buy everything at once. So finding the right gear and buying it once is my philosophy.
thanks for watching, that's all I did, just have a go, everyone in the RUclips community is very helpful, I just learnt from watching others, best way I think, thanks again atb mike
That is a great bag, I use an LK 35 myself, But for the winter when I'd need to carry a bit more ( ie extra bedding,heavier tarps etc) that would be Ideal, thanks for the heads up I'll look out for one, thanks for sharing. ATB Pete
Thanks for taking a look, it is a class pack I really rate it, I would of gone for the lk but without modding it's just a little small for me, thanks again atb mike
Nice one dude , Ive got a US Alice type pack very similar to that , love the way the frame transfers the weight to your hips rather than cutting into your shoulders, it was also £10 on a car boot sale lol atb Bruce
Some great finds there, Mike. That Bergen is a bargain ( I bet you make a belt for that ). The wood gas stove is a terrific bit of kit. The best way to use it is to fill it with wood and light the top. Pete, outside edge bushcraft does a very good demo on his channel and he shows how to make one too. Don't forget to film your first try in the hammock chair :-). Atb.
thanks for taking a look much appreciated, yeah well chuffed with the pack, I think making a belt seems the way forward, I'll take a look at his channel thanks, thanks again for watching atb mike
