Super cute! Great project! Love the blenders you've made. I've been watching these you tube videos where a lady from an Asian country whisks eggs with chopsticks (2), and does a really good job. So I tried it and it works pretty well.
I like the smell of Balsam Fir best but I will use the White Pine first. One thing I learned while trimming Christmas trees is to cut the top at a 45° angle. This will help the tree to get one leader, rather than multiple tops.
Interesting, I'll have to try that. I forgot my fork once so I took a fresh stick of a bush. Split the first 5cm into four pieces and spread them apart by pushing a thin piece of food in between the "whisks". It worked better then my fork for mixing dried eggs with cold water. I'll try this version next time I am out.
I find that poisonous oak vines make a great whisk. If you leave the broken shells in with the scrambled eggs, it helps scratch the itch in your throat. Cheers from New Orleans
G'day Mark, what another ripper vid mate, bushcrafted utensils, tools and infrastructure are exactly the kinda activity I like to do out in the sticks, active mind, yet meditative, expand the skill set and of course very useful, all at the same time, ........ heaven on earth I'd say ; ) Secateurs are an interesting one, sure an extra tool to carry, though make a shipload of sense. Personally, I do carry paracord and no. 36 bankline, however, I've found a string off an old kids kite that happens to be very useful for finer tasks such as kit repair with an awl or sail/bag needle. Do you know anything about "outdoor worthy" stitching thread, without breaking down others, ....... the kite string is just about gone ; ) Cheers Duke. P.S. gotta say to the naysayers; I'm sure there are exceptions, though in my experience, I've never found any plant that doesn't benefit from taking a cutting, (or indeed a more significant haircut for that matter), in terms of encouraging new growth.
Hi Duke. I found a role of very thin nylon line at a marine supply store a few years ago. I expect it was intended for making or repairing fish nets. It is all I have ever needed and I am not sure where to get it now. I will look around for it. Thanks for commenting
Out here we just call the geese annoying. They’ve discovered safety in the suburbs, got a river surrounding the island, and plenty of nice grass, so now they’re absolutely everywhere. There poop is everywhere too. At least they’ve gotten used to people, so they aren’t aggressive. The other annoying thing is they eat all the grass down to golf course short, which makes it too short for dry periods, and they leave the weeds.
Thanks for sharing. Thumbs up.

Vary interesting. That's going on the do list. .. can you do a short vid on a Canadian jam knot sometime?
I have been considering a "my knots" type of video but I may be able to work a few knots into other videos as I go. Thanks for commenting

Most f the time I have no issue with them in the wild but in urban settings they are "annoying" for sure. Thanks for commenting Jim
👍 Except for the poopy geese 👿
