lodge sportsman's grill...just got delivered and couldn't wait until tomorrow...i'm already a convert to cast iron skillets so it's no surprise i'm liking this one too as my first impression.

Toaks Ti spoons, Opinel in walnut, and old hickory boning knife i plan on modding

I recently received one of those long Ti Toak's spoons myself. Very nice. How is the stand-length spoon? Just as good? Worth buying?

Picked up a ALPS Camp Creek 4, to replace our Coleman Evanston 4.

The wife & I are both too old & stiff to struggle in & out of the Coleman. This one has a taller door
& way more height inside. Will order some Easton .742 7075 -T9 sections to replace the OEM
steel poles to shave a few pounds.

Those are really nice. I had one for a while, and I totally underrated it.

Is there a Dutch oven on the way?

Is there a Dutch oven on the way?

i don't know. honestly, i've cooked with it a couple of times already and i don't see a real advantage to the lighter weight. it might actually be a negative since i notice an un-even heating due to less mass. i have a lodge 9" that i sanded smooth and it's my favorite skillet so after i do the same for the rest of my lodge the field skillet might not see anymore use.

if the dutch oven is similar in that it's lighter weight i'll stick to lodge.

yeti 1-gallon rambler jug...just in time since this weekend will be spent mostly cleaning/reorganizing the garage and people who knows me knows anything above 70 deg it might as well be 130 for me

View attachment 748886 Here is a Russian E tool (entrenching). It is of all Titanium construction. If you put the blade in the hoe position and turn the shovel upside down, it makes a 1 legged stool.

my neighborhood lost power for 20 minutes during a storm last week (memories of hurricane sandy and 10 days of no power came rushing back in) so that finally pushed me over the edge to move on from portable solar panels to a beefier setup...renogy 100w panel and a 35 ah battery (i should've started with a renogy 100 ah) to get my feet wet...not sure yet how much i'll need but my goal will be to add a panel and battery to the system every month until most of my electrical appliances are off the grid.

...and just in case so i don't burn anything down

my 100w solar panel setup is now up and running for almost a week...time to harvest some of that free energy ravpower 22000 mah batteries and powerjive meters.
