Can make either left or right draw, let us know which you prefer and what colour

Would prefer a light brown if possible and on the left hip for a RH draw.
Been farting around in the shed and made a transit box for my Ghillie kettle.
Just make a cube and cut off a lid. just need some hinges and an over centre catch,
should be well protected now for years to come.
Might add I hate working with timber, I love the look of it but I missed the bus when it comes to making
boxes etc from it lol

Box looks good.
Will try and retain the neutral leather colour otherwise it will be a light brown.
No probs on the left hand carry, will start them today and should have stamps by end of the week

Here's a few of my torches, one on the top bolts to a rifle, then my new underwater torch,
next is just a bright general purpose torch followed by Mr reliable P7. All have a molle style pouch except the underwater job.
My 6 D cell and 4 D cell and mini Maglites have all been retired, shame as they are an awesome torch, to replace them I have a 55 HID torch
boy is that bright

I have a few of the P5's and they are great.
I did the led conversion on my 5C cell maglite and it rocks.
I have 1 of the lenser taclites under the barrel of my 22 and it is great. No needing a spotlight any more unless in a vehicle

I LOVE working with timber 3D! It's amazing what can be achieved with it and some of the grains are incredible.... makes great scales! I am biased though, being a chippy by trade.

I love timber the grain etc , should have paid more attention at school lol, some of my antique furniture is over 200 yrs old , but that is patina

Had to retire the 6 cell mag as it was costing way to much to fill with batteries.
Wish the 55watt HID torch was more a spot beam it would be awesome then
@ GKO he's an Ice box I refurbished for Mudski

[oncedisturbed]

Nice job on the ice box. I love working with wood as well but dont really have the space to do anything properly, need some property so I can put up some workshop and man caves

@ 3D, LOVE it! That looks so much better that the original! Top job!

@OD, I am trying to talk the Minister of War in to buying a small block so I can have all of my machines going.... her reply was something akin to the chances of a cold round ball in a very hot place... :0

Thanks GKO I have 5 ice boxes from 1856 to 1930 the 1856 is made from red cedar,
another is made from silky oak and 3 are basic pine. They are filled with either cork chips or wheat husks, Silky oak one serves as a great wine rack, the pine ones serve to house dry dog food and bird seed to keep the mice out. The one pictured will be returned to Mudski to give to his Dad, I have another top loader that is half finished ATM. That will house tools of some description[ green/white number]
Bummer nothing arrived in the post,

I bought 4 of these they are 5watt, might be bright enough for camp lights ,but having a magnified lens it will have a cut off point[no distance]
Thinking 4 mounted in a Jaycar plastic box, as stated will try tonight and see how bright one is. Power wise should be great, but the camp lights I have now are awesome.

@ OD brown is fine ,
