  1. Of course they work! ... whether they are practical...thats matter of opinion. A catapult...whether it is multiplex...or a natural... Is only as powerful as the bands you put on it... And only as accurate as the shooter. IMO multiplex is a strong material to make a board cut catapult from.... ive taken plenty of game with one... And them ones in the link are nicely made.
  2. Brookie... are you saying that only a natural fork... would withstand your field tests? ...
  3. Must be full of shiit. You start hitting them any further and you'll have to start giving Fire Control orders like an MFC... ... Where you get that from? ...
  4. Seriously... make your own mate... It doesnt take long at all...and will be far more rewarding ...
  5. And there guys... is the reason im not posting on here anymore... and havent even looked on here in a while... Its the same old shiit... Always some fanny who is either jealous... or wants to be a complete goon....who questions your integrity.... "that wasnt alive" ..."your talking shiit" ...... Always something... Ill leave you's to it.
  6. Dpm goretex trousers... size L... Corded waistband...velcro bottoms and zips up to mid leg... 10pound... plus 3quid postage. Payment via paypal...
  7. Here you go baw... Check out this thread... Ive just tested the strength of a hardwood catty...over multiplex.... Think it was ash..or beech... The hardwood split...dangerously...http://www.thehuntinglife.com/forums/topic/315331-the-strength-of-multiplex-over-hardwoods/?p=3556490 that as absolutely no bearing at all on the quality and superiority of a natural hardwood seasoned fork . firstly if used properly a fork would never be struck like that and secondly if looked after properly seasoned hardwood lasts a lifetime .those home made forks to be honest wouldnt last two minutes out side
  8. If youve got it for the longrun... then thats ofcourse the best outcome... Maybe you should have let it settle a while before taking it out... could have fecked off on you... a complete stranger... But hey... people do things different ways... good luck...
  9. Better with a multiplex core... and the nice wood on the outside.. ...

  12. Next was the multiplex... 2 direct fork hits... and only 2 small dents... The third hit split the wood on the fork... but didnt snap it... I then hammered it a few times... and it split and 'cracked' off.... notice how it didnt snap completely... The difference is... the multiplex wont snap and send the fork tips back at your face at a dangerous speed...whereas the hardwood...will split down the grain...with ease... and cause damage.
  13. Today i routered out some multipex blanks... and started a router on a hardwood blank... only the hardwood blank split... Ofcourse due to some error on my part with the router... But the way the hardwood split...with ease... Made me want to test it further... Id routered out 8 multiplex blanks with no issues at this stage.. Ill post 2 videos..of the 2 woods..in the same situation... The first is the hardwood (missing a fork...as it split on the router) ... possibly ash or beech? ... Clamped in... and hit with 12mm steel...from about 2/3feet away... as close as i cou

  17. If your talking about military boots.... then aye.... the standard issue G10'S would and do leak... your sure to have wet feet with them... as you are with jungle boots... The goretex issue pro boots....arent bad at all... ive wore them... but didnt like them... i know lads that do... I think afghanistan has been a tremendous learning curve for kit let alone boots... We got issued the goretex pro-boots for a winter tour... but we soon reverted back to the desert lowa/altberg... as once your feet got wet going the the shiit and piss streams and wadi's... you just couldnt dry them ou
