Pinoy Bushwhacker: January 2014

http://pinoybushwhacker.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html

The Paracord Survival Bracelet. The compass is relatively accurate. The ferro rod throws sufficient sparks. But the whistle doesn't work. No matter how hard I blew on it all I hear is the sound of my breath, no whistle at all. Thursday, January 2, 2014. It doesn't work anymore. What is this opener made of - aluminum?

My family celebrated Thanksgiving Day together with my mother, brothers and sisters. My youngest sister cooked pork pot roast and stuffed turkey while my wife brought Jambalaya. Not to be outdone, my daughter-in-law pitch in an orange chicken Filipino style. Dessert was courtesy of my niece and consisted of chocolate dipped pastries. Happy Thanksgiving to all!

Pinoy Bushwhacker: November 2013

http://pinoybushwhacker.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html

This blog is anything about survival, whittling/carving, hiking, camping, biking and etc. Tuesday, November 5, 2013. I ordered online a replacement flint for my flint and steel kit. I was wondering if this kind of stone can be found in my country, the Philippines. Maybe there is another kind of stone with similar characteristics that I can use instead. 1 of the 2 English flint I ordered online for $5. The Hudson Bay Flint and Steel Kit. Highly recommended kit. Labels: flint and steel.

Pinoy Bushwhacker: What's In My Pocket At Work

http://pinoybushwhacker.blogspot.com/2015/02/whats-in-my-pocket-at-work.html

A co-worker friend gave me a Sheffield brand box cutter. It works great, better than my EDC knife for cutting boxes, string and whatever need to be cut at work. It has a pocket clip and quite inconspicuous. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Whats In My Pocket At Work. More Whittlin To Come. Bill Qualls' Wilderness Survival.

Pinoy Bushwhacker: Whittling

http://pinoybushwhacker.blogspot.com/2015/03/whittling.html

This blog is anything about survival, whittling/carving, hiking, camping, biking and etc. Tuesday, March 3, 2015. From top to bottom: Schrade 34OT, SAK Recruit, and a RR Whittler. And most of all, it somehow enabled me to do the things I love the most when I was a kid - making my own "toys". It is not an expensive pursuit, all you need is a sharp knife and a piece of wood and you're good to go. Try it, it's a lot of fun and it will make your kids or grandkids happy. But don't cut yourself.

Pinoy Bushwhacker: Fish

http://pinoybushwhacker.blogspot.com/2015/02/fish.html

This blog is anything about survival, whittling/carving, hiking, camping, biking and etc. Sunday, March 1, 2015. Twice I bought my grandson a fish for his small aquarium and both of them died. So I thought I just made him a wooden fish. He liked it very much. I used a piece of basswood for this one. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Bill Qualls' Wilderness Survival. Simple template.

I remember times or events in the past when I hear a song associated with them. Just like songs, things also bring back memories. Let me tell you a short story. The Americans thirsty for good times was on spending spree. Soon their money was exhausted and they began selling their C-Rations composed mostly of canned goods and cigarettes&#46...

This winter I am not able to make him one since my wife and I have move out and just rent an apartment nearby my daughter's house. Instead, I made my grandson a wooden snowman which I hope he will like just the same. This snowman is made from a tree branch. I used an x-acto knife to carve this figure. I also...

Pinoy Bushwhacker: June 2014

http://pinoybushwhacker.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html

This blog is anything about survival, whittling/carving, hiking, camping, biking and etc. Thursday, June 19, 2014. Reapairing a SAK Tinker Broken Tip. I finally broke the tip of my 84mm SAK Tinker. I used the blade tip to punch holes in a thick metal can instead of the awl and paid the price. Old people like me never learn. It's an old and hard to find small version of the 91mm SAK Tinker. And after several passes through a whetstone and leather strop, it's good as new again. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
