If you bring the axe down quickly near the middle of the phone that should work. Or take the axe and head out to where there is no signal, that would work too. Jim

I am now inspired to forage for some crooks to hang my axes on the wall instead of standing on the floor. Jim

I too used a boat trailer and built a box on it to make it multi purpose. The canoe rests on bars, short for one canoe and longer for two canoes. I did a build thread on here somewhere but couldn’t find it. Here it is in use moving my crap up to Maine. Jim

Welcome to the campfire Floating Upstream, pull up a stump and make yourself comfortable. Where are you currently located? Jim

If this is better suited to the diy thread please move it for me. I saw video the other night about a diy camping griddle, it intrigued me so I thought I’d have a go and make one (or a couple) to pack in with the fire box I made a couple of years ago. In the video they took 22 gauge weldable...

I was going to say my knees but in terms of equipment most is old but I did upgrade my sleep system, and I’ve made new items based on my old items. Jim

I saw this on Craigslist. From back in the courting canoe days. Jim

Maybe years ago they used canvas but these come from the factory with glass. They use the 4oz glass to save weight because there is the whole rib structure inside. I’ve repaired and maintained quite a few of them. Jim

Varnish is what you want but it looks like the glass is worn through in a couple spots, if my reading of the photos is correct you need to patch those first. I think 4 oz glass is what they use. Jim

Welcome to the campfire Daisy. Pull up a stump and stay awhile. Jim

The cheapest way to ship things is through PirateShip. I haven’t used it yet but my friend says it saved him a bundle shipping Christmas gifts. Apparently you sign up with PirateShip upload the weight and dimensions of the package, it calculates and then you print out a label. You can use UPS or...

Pat, so sorry to hear about your fall it sure looks painful. Here’s to healing quickly. Jim

There is a canoe race on the St George river here in Maine this coming weekend. I’m not a racer so I don’t plan to be there. Jim
