Falling Leaves...Pine Pitch, Bamboo, Buck Skins, Axes, Oh My!

[Joezilla]

I'm slowly going through some falling leaves pictures, but here are just some quick ones to give you a taste of what went on there


I got to make pine pitch glue, about 6 different bamboo cooking contraptions, hand drills, and all sorts of tidbits here and there. And I was only at the event for two days!

Trade Blanket. By far the most interesting and odd trading extravaganza I have been to.

Here is a sobering discovery. On the back of my Bug t-shirt was a dead BLACK WIDOW. There was no disputing it after I examined it up close. The SOB could have bit through my shirt. Anyone else find it ironic that it happened to an entomology nerd?

Great pics Joe. Tell me about that Kukri looking knife. I like the looks of that blade. Also, what type of scorpion is that? Looks like a nasty little rascal.

Looked like atlot of fun. I got off the plane around 2pm saturday and I was done. No way I could have made this

Great pics, that looks like an absolute blast! Some cool blades, too. I've never seen a blacksmith's bra strap before.

Now I'm looking up "Bug t-shirt" and most importantly "Bug pants".

Sorry Joe, that black widow on the shirt would have freaked me out...I know they're your bug buddies, but if I had my choice I'd rather deal with snakes. Great pics, looks like you had a good time and some neat projects going on.

 

[Calebklyne]

great pics id say you accomplished a lot for only two days

no dang way. Even if I like them, I don't like them smashed against my skin.
