  • I DIY'd a bear proof chuck box after a close encounter and the destruction of our camp kitchen boxes. Call it a patrol box, a chuck box, a camp kitchen box- whatever you call it this thing is indestructible.

    Holy guacafreakinmole. That’s epic. Thank god all the beasties here in Australia only want to kill us, not steal our food!!
    On a side note, that face in the bear’s head reminded me I had a dream last night where they (?) cut open a snake & found a huge hornless elk or some such that then proceeded to eat the lump of flesh next to it in the gizzards, but swiftly got taken out by some other creature watching the whole event. So thanks for that flashback! Anyway, I changed the bell setting to all or whatever cos CZcams didn’t bother telling me about this doozy. 👍

    Just a heads up. The PVC plates will outlive the life of the box but if there isn't any UV stabilizer in the masterbatch its gonna get a rough surface as it erodes and it will become brittle over time. The sun is a fickle mistress

I read too many Boxcar Kids books as a kid. My husband is a Dr and I’m an RN, so it’s pretty funny spending too much money on quality Hennessy Hammocks and then devoting time to learn how to splice Amsteel rope into whoopie slings. Basically if I can use Amsteel rope to make soft shackles, slings, super strong continuous circles rather than loud and heavy clips, clamps and bungees (plus they don’t stay soaked and get heavier when wet) then I’m a happy camper.
