Re: What would you call this?

Hey all,

Thanks, that was what i was thinking. But when i searched online for Tumplines the only thing that was kicked back to me was the tumpline in the over the head fashion.

Thanks for all the replies and links.

What would you call this?

Im being purposefuly vague in my approach here because I dont want to influence responses.

What would you call the item that is strapped acrossthe pictured gentleman's chest and is holding his blanket bundle?

Re: A tested Archers Hard Kit

Very nice,

I love these micro kit posts. Kind of a primitive pocket dump. In my opinion they are more usefull than a full costume post, costume and outerwear is so changeable, the imprtant stuff rarely changes and is often found on belts.

Thanks

Re: An Oft-Forgotten Weapon

image.jpg Made my first modern materials sling, 325 (which i didnt know was a thing) and 550 paracord. Two strap method., designed it for tennisballs, more of a sporty/ practice sling. image.jpg A bit shorter than my usual slings. Could just be my perception but the all fiber ones seem to be shorte...

I like how he hosts a how to section on his website. Very egalitarian, to sell things but also make abailable the means to make ...

Re: An Oft-Forgotten Weapon

Btw. Took a long bike ride today along the Delaware. Tied a sling around my waist as a n afterthought. Took a break and slung a few stones into the river. I used the slitted one. I love it. Feels way more substantial and secure. Need to redo the strap on my stone bag, find some good ammo material, a...

Re: An Oft-Forgotten Weapon

Will this mortar break down and disintigrate in the outdoors? Id rather not sling little cement balls into my rivers and fields. I lurk a lot now. I have a spotty internet connection most of the year. Makes posting on my comings and goings tougher. Need to take some pictures and a few more revisions...

Re: An Oft-Forgotten Weapon

Made a pair of slings tonight. One will be cupped the other has a slit. Other than that they are identical. Next project is to get some clay so i can make some uniform ammo.

Re: Scenario - January 2014

Ranger escape and evasion. My first thought is to put as much distance between them and me. I move quickly away from the orc pack, the baying of hounds likely fueling my body with adrenaline. I move in the direction of the nearest brook, creak or stream, being these are foot hills i assume there wou...
