Exactly. No kit, partial kit, if you prefer to do Ren Fest in pirate garb... Whatever. I'll be in as much kit as I can bear. Not doing my full pack of course.
It will just be good to meet in person. I'm thinking something like meet at the Drunk Monk pub at 1pm?

Re: Naming the Company
Dusklight company Dusklight Company is such a cool name. Adding more to the geographic naming, you could translate your own real world area into Sindarin. For example, the Lake District in the UK, becomes the Ael Drand Rangers . In my own area, the Blue Ridge Mountains becomes the Lhun Pind Company...

Re: Dry goods and other musings
Lentils. Lentils make a great dry staple. Perfect for making stews. They're a great source of protein and fiber. The biggest downside and why they're not used a lot in backpacking food is cooking times. You need to boil and simmer for 30 minutes or longer. For modern backpackers that means lots of f...

Re: What's everyone working on?
I was bored yesterday so I made a pouch from my leather scraps bin. I love making pouches like this. No pattern. Just digging through scraps and finding what kinda fits together with minimal cutting/waste. I've got a lap desk, so just sitting in front of the TV, watching Star Trek, cutting and stitc...

Re: Modern Camo Hunting Cloak
I saw your post on reddit! Very awesome, especially how it converts to a shelter. Haha. I knew double dipping on my posts would let someone find me. Even if the shelter is never used for an emergency, it could be great for convenience. Say I shoot a deer before dust and loose the blood trail in the...

Re: Modern Camo Hunting Cloak
My Modern Camo Hunting Cloak is done and it is working wonderfully. Well, maybe not working because I haven't gotten a deer yet, but I'm happy with it. It's kept me warm, dry, and hidden on a few hunts. It's nice to just sit down, wrap up, and wait. The extra, polar fleece inner cloak has been great...

Re: Regarding Trolls
I sort of assumed it was how their raised. That the Hobbit's trolls were essentially wild trolls doing whatever they liked. Later, the trolls in Lord of the Rings, were raised as beasts of war. Part of a cruel army, beating and twisting their natural malice, dumbing them down until they're just a ra...

Re: Some LOTR inspired leather goods.
Why did you revive a post after almost 5 years to post a link to gun holsters?

Well, here is the camo outer cloak in action. http://i.imgur.com/G9c5uvDl.jpg http://i.imgur.com/wu26fe5l.jpg Not much to look at, but that's the point. Haha! I hunt on the ground without a blind.

Camo outer cloak is done (except waterproofing). I’m sitting in the woods, an hour before dawn, for my first test. Wish me luck!

Modern Camo Hunting Cloak
Not long ago I posted pictures of myself clad in modern hunting camo with my green ranger's cloak. Well, I've enjoyed hunting wearing my light cloak so much that I decided to make a modern version. Behold! This evening I have cut the fabric and taken the first steps to constructing my new cloak! htt...
