Thanks. I wasn't really sure what board this goes on.

Use the catalog, asshole

I'd like to see him do more food stuff. Maybe some trapping?

>>1071456
Next he'll need to make primitive orthopedic gel inserts

>>1071464
kek, it looks slippery though

I think you may have better luck on >>>/diy/ with this project. After all, terraria (three years of Latin, proper plural of singular ending in 'um' is 'a') aren't /out/ so much as a little patch you make to brighten up your /in/ space. Seems a neat hobby to get into, though. Good luck in your endeavours.

I have a great one.
It's called "outside", perhaps you've heard of it.

don't be an asshole, the guy is just asking

Your various cervid furs are fragile, the hairs are hollow and tend to break.

The warmest and most durable furs are predators, such as wolf or bear. However, these tend to be either prohibitively expensive, or restricted.

Beaver would be a good option, as would muskrat.

ok

I've always wanted to deck out my bed and couches with hides. You can get those lapland reindeer hides for pretty cheap. Wouldn't carry them /out/ though, except maybe as a poncho type thing

I like my Sea2summit dry bags, I've got a couple of them.
>A4 paper
You could've just said printer paper so I didn't have to google it. No, sorry, nothing that would be a close fit. Pelican and Hardigg both make 10x12x4 and 10x12x6 cases though, if you can tolerate a little slop.

>>1071122
Thanks anon. I don't mind it being a bit bigger. Those sizes are perfect.

>>1071086
I have a pair of drybags from The Friendly Swede, they've held up for 2 and a half years so far.

Are there many Mongolian anons here? I almost never see them on flag boards.

>What are your thoughts, /out/?
I think I should change my oil and go grocery shopping, but I really don't feel like doing anything today.

Get this one and read it front to back: https://archive.org/details/SASSurvivalHandbookTheUltimateGuideToSurvivingAnywhere

You can get it in a small paperback and take it with you innawoods. It's a great resource for so many things, I learned a shitload from it as a scout.

If you learn all of the shit in this book, you're probably more knowledgeable than 95% of /out/

I was looking at that one but wasn't sure because it seemed like it might cover topics I may never use (ie: tips on surviving in the desert, etc), but I guess I can use the pages that don't apply as fire starting material. Thank you!

Blowing shit up is not /out/

I agree with you, but why did you bump the thread?

Haven't used one. They look like decent entry level backpacks. I really don't recommend a 100 liter pack for anyone unless you already have a ~40 liter pack AND a ~65 liter pack. Make sure you want to go backpacking first, as a 100 liter is for either deep snow camping, or trips lasting more than a week.

That being said, they don't look terribly ergonomic.

Catalog

Depends on how needy the dog is. Some are perfectly fine laying out on the ground, others will freak out if they aren't in your sleeping bag with you.

>>1070647

Ground isnt really an option with how damp it is in the bush. Basically need a short bivvy sack with a hooped opening maybe.

>>1070627
Nice pug

>Where are the best places to go hunting for deer in WA state?
Preferably as deep inna woods as possible

There ya go!

Olympic National Park. It's your land, don't let them tell you what you can't do

upper Greenwater between King/Pierce/Yakima and Klickitat County.

I wear contacts and am basically blind without them. I also have to use those hydrogen peroxide solutions that neutralize overnight due to sensitive eyes.

I bring my one pair of contacts and in my kit, some alcohol scrubs for making sure my fingers are clean of dirt. After scrubbing and drying I also then kind rub my fingertips together, to get rid of the fibers left by the pad.

I also bring my glasses in case I need to see at night to pee or want to stargaze, fend off nocturnal cairn builders, get attacked by skin walkers etc. If I lose a contact lens or drop it in the dirt I would also go to the glasses for the rest of the trip. But, I hate wearing glasses so my contacts are my primary. If you find glasses comfortable then by all means just wear those, but it's advisable to have a backup pair in that case if you have myopia to any degree.

I think it's perfectly reasonable to be paranoid about your eyes when /out/. Bring a good pair of comfortable sunglasses and I also personally bring a pair of safety glasses (good ones, not the cheap boxy kind that you get free in tool kits and shit) for various uses. Maybe that comes from working in EMS but I think it's a good idea.

Your eyes are necessary for a full life, difficult to impossible to fix, and you can't grow them back. Furthermore you really cant /out/ without seeing. Take care of them.

>>1070563
Also forgot to mention, as far as contact cases go, the little pouch that hangs inside most tents seems to be a good spot for them. I tuck a pair of socks or my glasses case or whatever against and around them to keep it upright and level so I won't knock it in the night...this is more important with my solution type than normal solutions, though, since it has to sit upright to neutralize properly.

>hurrrrr Anon just get Lasix

Will eventually. I'm just now comfortable with the maturity of the technology, and my optometrist recommended letting my vision stabilize which it is starting to do. Couple more years.

I wear glasses and occaisanally start to wander around without them at night. Makes every bunch of trees look like a bigfoot/skinwalker/faery.

I literally had a dream last night about poison hemlock seeds getting into the compost/manure from the local horse barn and into my garden where I grow queen ann's lace. It is a semi-legit concern since it grows near the horse barn, but I highly doubt it can get in unless severely wind blown.

Do you guys have Giant Hogweed? It is the stuff of nightmares.

>>1070261
I've been sleeping on the yellow one from your pic every time i'm out under every weather conditions for two years. Light, small, warm and comfortable.
Totally worth its (high) price.

I rate my exped downmat. I have the 5cm lite version, which is R 4.1, I use it in my bridge hammock and does 4 seasons for me. Exped do a lot of varieties also.

>>1070261
NeoAir Xlite is the GOAT. 2017 version is less noisey too.
