>>2236521>>2235356>Not using B&Q BiofuelHonestly the smell of that barney faggot purple liquid of cunt makes using alcohol stoves so unpleasant. The smell of burning biofuel, however... Now that's game. Burns damn clean too.
>>2236637Wrong image, what an absolute mong.
>>2225824Is there any side fuel source with a lower energy density by volume? Or mass? Or by cost? Seems awful to me
>>2235267It’s as easy as starting a fire in the first place but it sounds like a jet engine. The seething is real when other people with me have to pack in fuel but they get the upper hand when it comes to overall comfort and convenience. It’s about the same size and weight as three of those MSR cans stacked on top of each other and will definitely cook food and boil water as long as you have a constant supply of sticks. Everyone keeps feeding them twigs but the real pro move is to start with twigs then use larger, denser pieces that will still fit underneath your cookware that you rest on top of it. Rangers like them too since it’s considered a contained fire on par with jetboils or other gas-driven stoves.Also the batteries will degrade with use over time, and their warranty is ass so if you fancy yourself a handyman you can replace the 18650 cell inside of it and use a larger one, but I wouldn’t recommend going above 3800mAh. The primary reason for the battery is to run the fan so the fire can burn hotter with the additional airflow, and the ability to charge devices is a secondary aspect when it comes to the device’s design. I can take pics of the internals, but it’s literally just a Peltier thermoelectric device with probe that drives a PCB, which in turn regulates fan speed based upon a thermocouple taped to the OEM battery. If the device gets too hot it’ll either put the fan at full speed to cool the device internals or shut it off completely to avoid damaging the Li-Ion cell, because those totally love fire.If you’re seriously considering one, evaluate how available fuel will be for either gas or sticks, and purchase accordingly. Get a used Campstove 2 if you can and replace the battery. The PCB charging circuit is soldered onto it, so you’ll have to bust them off or desolder it if you’re feeling confident, but a new cell should slip right into place. Just don’t reverse the polarity by accident.>MNY2K
>>2234261I used three tin cans to build my first on. Find one that's the size of the burn chamber you want. Then get two more that are each slightly larger than the next. I did mine fast and dirty with a pair of pliers and a bar key and a can opener. But the second one i made i got a thrift store wine chiller and used a cordless drill on it. Took an old dolar store stainless pot and some grill skewers and made a stand off for it. The thing is bomb proof. The part about it where I thought I was pretty clever was i took two long fondue skewers and notched them in the middle. So when i slide them through the bottom they lock and make a noce wide and stable base.
Aus/NZ threadNow that Spring's here, what are your plans?Camping?Hiking?Swimming?Fishing?or you gunna take the 4wd up some tracks?
>>2235648Spring in Australia means birds attack people and the temperature goes from 5c in the morning to 35c by 9am. It's an awful season.A tinnie means a can of beer, or a small boat

Do any of you have /out/ jobs?
>>2234759No one would do that. It's just a fantasy in your head.
Is there any way to use my tech skills to get a more /out/ job, even if it just means getting out of the office every once in a while? I work in data engineering so mostly python/scala/SQL and databases plus some light Linux admin.
I drive cargo trains. I get to see a lot of my country, and I get to be outside a lot. Its nice
>>2220859No but I’m considering wildland firefighting, has anyone here done it? The pay isn’t great but it seems like an interesting /out/ing
>>2232841>would I have stayed?No. My direct supervisor/ boss was the president of the 400 person engineering company. I was a shareholder, department head, had developed over $2 million in revenue in 18 months, 2 years of backlog, grew the size of group by 60% and trying to hire more.And I hated every minute of it.What could they change? It wasn't them that was off, it was me. I felt like a caged chimpanzee, or a dog tied to a tree, attitude had long since deteriorated. Open the cage or cut the rope and what could I do with the pent up frustration and resentment from being obedient and playing the game for too long.I was done.
>Go into the woods >see this>what do?

Do you think it's possible to cultivate marijuana growing in the Atlantic Northwest successfully? ... Asking for a friend btw.

>>2233559Agreed. Vid I took in eastern Canada:https://youtu.be/VVbRQ3Xsw0gCape Cod is amazing too.
I took my Shimarin /out/ today. had a very pleasant day.were you /out/ today?
>>2231970>>2233133absolutely basedwhy are animeposters the only people on /out/ who actually go outdoors?
>>2233141have you forgotten where you are?>Look at OP's image and notice how not a single person realized it isn't OC at all.posting an image you resized for another board isn't posting OCYou must be new here
>>2235212Honestly I have nothing against the non-anime posters but they seem very aggressive. Maybe they should get out more, exercise really helps with anger issues.
>>2234393Ah yes, the "muh work" excuse. That's totally it.
Friends, I can't wait for winter camping
Archery General because I haven't seen one in a while.I want to start fletching my own arrows - what's a good jig that won't cost an arm and a leg?
>>2234969Won't a self bow be easier to make?
>>2218575Is archery worth bothering with if you're cross-dominant? The strong side of my body is the right, but my dominant eye is the left.
>>2236353Pick up a bow at an archery shop and try it out. Shoot on whatever side feels better
>>2218575Finally had a crack at shooting bare recurve this week after being a compoundfag for a while. Very comfy desus
>>2235520What's your budget? Visiting an archery shop is always a good idea and the Samic Sage is a great recommendation like >>2235655 said. If you're buying online and don't want to spend much on a hobby you're not sure you'll like, don't be afraid to give cheap chinese bows like Topoint/Junxing a try. I've still got a 40# Topoint R2 that cost ~$70 on Aliexpress and have no complaints about it
ITT we ask and answer questions about trees and discuss forest management, fire, and similar shit.I have a lot of birch growing on my property in this cluster arrangement. It's my understanding that birch produces shoots from the ground that become mature trees. Does this mean clusters like this are branches of the same tree? Can I cut three of four trees in a cluster like this and absolve myself of the feeling of murdering the tree? Will the remaining tree become independently large?
>>2234304It depends a lot on the end use of the trees. If planning on hunting/recreation land, I would just leave it be unless it really bothered you. If there is a chance for timber harvest for monetary gain, you want one strong, straight tree. Trim any limbs that may shoot off the tree that you can reach from the ground, within reason of course.
>>2234749I'd just i.d the conk before cutting too
>>2234763>It depends a lot on the end use of the treesI heat my house with the shit. I'm pretty sure there's enough beetle kill around that my great grandchildren will be harvesting that, but I'm thinking I should take at least one or two birch per season for when it gets extremely cold.>>2234749>birch don't tend to grow that large thoughThe previous owner of my land left some BIG birch stumps, I'm talking 2 feet across. I have several living trees of about that size. The big ones seem isolated though, whereas many of the others are clusters of 4-5 smaller trees maybe 6 inches thick. What I am basically asking is, can I take out all but one of these 6 inch trees and expect the remaining one to be 2 feet thick when I am old?
>>2234304What's wrong with that tree? Why is the bark completely stripped out halfway up?
Greetings from maine
So did Mallory and Irvine summit Everest before their demise?
>>2230667I choose to believe. Incidentally October 25th will be the 100 year anniversary of the end of the first British Everest expedition.
>>2232047He may have died on the decent.
>>2234449Nope. He was an autist whose family failed to protect him from himself.
>>2236635>autistMore like PTSD from the War. Read 'The Great War, Mallory, and the Conquest of Everest'. There's tons of characters like Wilson there who couldn't cope with normal life after the war ended. Hell, the 1921, 1922 & 1924 expeditions were full of veterans. Wilson wast just a tad more eccentric than the rest of that generation.
>>2230667>jetpackWhat do you think, retard?
It was the heat that killed them. R.I.P.https://news3lv.com/news/nation-world/sheriff-to-announce-what-killed-california-family-on-hike
Good, maybe more urban scum will stay in their containment zones now. If you're so retarded that you don't realize that it is hot in August and that you need water to live then you're too retarded to be worth crying over. I do feel bad for the kid and the dog though, they didn't have a choice in the matter.
Charles Darwin was a wise man
>>2236103>The autopsies would have shown dehydration.In that weather you’d expect to see that even if they’d been shot to death. They were looking for something more than absolute retardation.
>>2236010Should have worn cotton, they were probably in overpriced synthetics or wool.
>>2236010Lived near some real nice trails in the Blue Mountains and there was at least five humans dying every year from the dehydration when they went on the trails without being from here.
Spooky Season is amongst us! Anybody else on /out/ getting into the spirit? Halloween is the best /out/ holiday imho.
>>2236335hell yes brother
>>2236412oh no! not the cholo scarecrow!
Creepy clown encounters when?
>>2236335>>2236412>>2236415>>2236426People that call it spooky season give me emotionally-stunted manchild vibes desu.
>>2236689https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lY0CgxNha-4Well fine but I still enjoy autumn and Halloween and I hope that's ok. We might not get scared the way we did as kids but I still think it's healthy to try.
Here's a handful of smokies from my summer trips
>>2235586I guess obsessing over weird rocks that they don't really understand is one of the less obnoxious things that normalfags do
>>2235586rocks are fucking gayonly good rocks are flint and iron pyrite
>>2236422Shut the fuck up you niggerfaggot
>>2236422Lmao stfu gaylord
>>2236422What you meant to say was "please don't call rocks gay, rocks are all cool and even the lamest ones are cooler than any person- gay or otherwise- could ever hope to be."
>picrel visit your camp at 2am and says hiwhat do
>>2236665I'd do what I did last time it happened to me - bolt up right and scream at them then feel like a damn fool being spooked by a family of deer.
