    Film Cameras

    I was a film holdout for what seemed like a long time, but once I went digital my photography improved exponentially. I can take literally hundreds of photos on a card the size of a postage stamp and again the instant feedback from digital encourages experimentation. Film feels so finite, as...

    Quality Phillips head screwdrivers?

    Pro tip: when you have a less than perfect screw head but you still need to get it out without drilling, fill the screw head with valve grinding compound then push hard and turn, if it's not too far gone you'll get enough traction to get it out.

    Quality Phillips head screwdrivers?

    I have one of these SNAP ON SCREWDRIVERS and I use THESE BITS . I also have the stubby version of the screwdriver. I"m an airplane mechanic and I have a drawer full of virtually unused screwdrivers except for my two ratcheting screwdrivers. It's an investment for sure but the part that wears...

    barrel and harness...

    I've only used a barrel one time and I quite liked it, the harness wasn't bad but I think if I owned a barrel I'd use an external frame pack to lug it around rather than purchase a dedicated barrel harness. I'd imagine the same would apply to a wannigan if you're not inclined to tump it, strap...

    GPS recommendation

    You don't even need the cellular version as you can use an external gps receiver like the DUAL GPS (which I have used back in the day on an ipod) then you simply download all the maps before you go and let the gps do its thing, no cell service required.

    GPS recommendation

    It depends on your use, if you plan on tracking your whole day a dedicated unit might be best, but if you're at all like me and you just want to drop a pin on some point of interest or you're not 100% sure of your location then you can get away with just using your phone (assuming you have a...

    Thwart bag suggestions?

    I use these SUSTAINMENT POUCHES and I'm quite happy with them. They're inexpensive have a nice capacity and the snaps on the back go right around a thwart and hold well... almost too good sometimes.

    ​3rd party hosting photo site suggestions?

    When it's just a photo I want to share on a forum I put it in google photos. Works well enough, it's free and probably not going anywhere.

    My new coffee kettle & cups

    That is a fine looking kettle for sure. I long for a tea kettle, I just don't actually need one, but with a little effort I'll find a way to justify one. ;)
