Re: Timekeeping/telling the time!
Thing is: If you know GMT and your Local time difference you can calculate the date by measuring noon. If you know the date and Local time difference you can calculate GMT. If you know the date and GMT you can calculate Local time difference (ie Longitude). So, for many things a reliable timepiece b...

Re: Home made anesthetic?
I wrote "Hemp" because thats what they called it back then. I know its different from hemp, the one used for seeds and fibres. Re: Glaucoma. I didn't think it was a cure, just used to manage the symptoms. Thanks for confirming that for me. Squirty cream, the cans are pressurised using nitr...

Re: Log splitters
500mm long split logs go into my boiler lengthways so I don't cut them any shorter. I like the idea of the log splitter but as you suggest, it needs a stop so hands can't be caught under the maul blade. I'd just stick them in my pockets..... But I'm a lazy bugger ;) The Oliver was used in chainshop...

Re: Freeze dried cheese !
Interesting, the cheese is about three times the price. £2.50 for 150 g opposed to £1.00 for 170 g (cheap own brand chedder)...... However, I'm not sure what the water content is. The Biltong I've bought in the past is half the weight of the raw meat so even assuming that cheese is less wet then ste...
Re: weapons
Having something around (or in your car, or on your person) that you are planning on using as a weapon is an offence
Mentioning it on a public forum will only strengthen the Prosecution's case.
I store my axes in the house because my shed isn't very secure or dry
