u/IrishHawk27 · 7 pointsr/Hunting

For those interested, here is the process I follow. This is the second skull I've done and both have turned out nicely. I know it looks like a lot of work at face value, and there is a lot of time that goes into it, but I was super nervous the first time I tried this, did a lot of research on how to do euro mounts and ultimately almost bailed out and paid someone $150 to do it for me. I ended up sticking it out and am glad I did both times. I know it's cliche, but if I can do this, anyone can do it and there is an immense amount of self pride that you get from seeing it hanging on your wall. Good luck and I look forward to seeing pictures of others who attempt to do their own DIY euro mount!

  1. Using your favorite knife or utility knife remove the hide from the deer skull. I find it best to pull the hide away from the skull while making small slices where the hide is still connected to the skull. But use whatever means you like so long as you get the hide removed.
  2. Once the skin is removed, I typically start working on removing the lower jaw and tongue. Slowly start pulling the bottom jaw open and cut away at the tendons and meat that give you resistance. Eventually the lower jaw should completely give way and separate from the skull.
  3. With the lower jaw removed I next turn my focus to removing the eyeballs. Typically I will start by cutting away at the fatty waxy substance behind the eye socket. Once you have most of that stuff removed, start pushing on the eyeball from behind, trying to force it out through the front of the skull. As you're pushing, try to cut away at the tissue around the eye to release it from the socket. Eventually you'll be able to pop the eyeball out and cut away the remaining tissue and nerves.
  4. Once you've removed both eyeballs it's time to move onto the brain. Depending on your budget and patience you can handle this one of two ways. The first time I just used a combination of picks and knives to dig the brain matter out of the brain cavity. The second time around I ordered the RaptoRazor Scrambler (link below) which is essentially a drill bit that you string up with weed eater string. Using this tool you can simply pour water into the brain cavity, mix it up with the scrambler, and pour it out. It took me approximately 4 to 5 cycles of this to get the brain cavity completely cleaned. But as soon as the water begins to pour clear you're done.
  5. Now that the brain and eyeballs have been removed from the skull use a combination of knives and picks to get as much meat and cartilage off the skull as possible. Pay extra attention in detail to the nasal cavity as the bones are delicate and break easily, but there is so much cartilage to be removed.
  6. Once you're satisfied and have removed as much meat and cartilage as possible it's time to boil the skull. I use an outdoor turkey fryer with an old stock pot. Add a box of baking soda to the pot of water and bring to a simmer just below a boil and let your skull simmer for 45 minutes to an hour. I used a 2'x4' to wedge my antlers do that they did not submerge in the water.
  7. Remove the skull from the water and remove any remaining meat and cartilage using picks, pliers, and a steel brush off you have one available. Just be careful not to gouge the skull.
  8. At this point you can optionally remove the ear bones by prying them out with a flat head screw driver. This will remove a good chunk of meat that can be hard to get to any other way. Some folks like the look with the ear bones but it's entirely up to you.
  9. Place the skull back into the simmering water for 25 to 35 minutes. While the skull is simmering, fill a large cooler or tub with hot water (as hot as your hands can stand to be submerged in) and squirt a lot of dawn dish soap in.
  10. Remove the skull from the pot and immediately submerge it into the water dish soap solution. Using an air compressor, submerge the skull and air nozzle and spray over the entire surface and into all cavities of the skull. This simulates a pressure washer and the dish soap helps to de-grease the skull while also removing the bits and pieces of hard to reach meat.

    Some folks will use a pressure washer instead of steps 9 and 10, but I prefer this method as it removes the grease which can cause the skull to yellow over time.

  11. Let your skull dry over night (or set it in front of a space heater for a half hour or so) to ensure its dried thoroughly.

    At this point your skull can be mounted if you are satisfied with the appearance. The remaining steps are my preference and help with the cosmetics only.

  12. Bleach your skull. You can order these products off of Amazon (links below), but I just go to the local Sally Beauty Supply. Make sure to wear gloves, eye protection, and a mask for this part as the bleach mixture can be relatively strong and caustic. Tape off the antlers with masking or painters tape to the brow tines in order to protect the antlers from the bleaching mixture. Mix Salon Care 40 Volume Developer Creme with Salon Care Quick White Powder Lightener until it's roughly the consistency of a milk shake and then paint the skull and cavities with the mixture. I used an old tooth brush to cover the inside of the brain cavity and dumped some extra in their along with the nasal cavity.

    Once the skull is entirely covered, wrap the entire thing in Saran wrap and place in front of a space heater. The heat is necessary to activate the bleaching agent. Heat the skull for about an hour, rotating every 10 minutes or so to ensure even heating.

    While the skull is heating, prepare a new cooler full of hot water; no soap this time. Once the skull had been heated, cut the Saran wrap and submerge the skull to the base of the antlers and use your air compressor to bubble the surface and cavities again to remove the bleach and clean the skull.

    Let the skull dry thoroughly. As the skull dries out will lighten up, but if you're unsatisfied with the color you can repeat the cleaning process as needed.

  13. After the skull has dried you should have a beautiful euro mount ready to go. This last step is a personal preference, but I usually take a cherry or colonial wood stain, dip a rag in it and rub the antlers down to darken them back up. BE CAREFUL TO NOT DRIP THE STAIN ON THE NEWLY BLEACHED SKULL.

    This also brings out a lot of unseen character in the antlers. Let the stain set for 10 minutes or so and wipe them down with a clean dry cloth.

    Now you should have a beautiful skull with a nice, dark rack ready to mount. My mount of choice is the Walnut Hollow Country Solid Wood Deluxe Euro Skull Display Kit from Amazon.

ill weigh in here too. i strongly recommend doing it yourself, if for no other reason, the sense of accomplishment. it got me into hunting even more when i was able to see the meat from field to plate, the whole way.

there are many levels you can butcher on... you can sub out as much as you want. you can get a grinder, or you can send it out to someone to do the burger. you can do your own sausage too if you have a grinder...

for me, if it is warm, ill do it that same day. if it isnt, i do it when convenient. honestly, ive tried aging it, and i cant taste one iota of difference... so i do it the easiest way i can. if i let it hang for more than a day, i make sure i pull out the tenderloins immediately.

tools you will need....
a good knife... preferably 2 so you can have someone help you. i like one with a gut hook, but its not the end of the world if you dont have one. youll want a small pocket sharpener, which you should probably have anyways... if you use a gut hook get one that can sharpen a gut hook. im a fan of this one

a gambrel. you can get by with ratchet straps, but a gambrel is way easier. i like one with a 4:1 lift ratio, but 2:1 is fine too. this is the one i have


a sawzall to cut off the head and legs are nice, but at our cabin we regularly forget to bring ours, and a regular hand saw actually works better in a lot of ways.

trash bags to store your meat in... at least 4. one for backstraps, one for front quarters, one for burger meat, one(or 2) for rear quarters.

so that will get you quartered. deer skinned, backstraps out, 4 legs(quarters) removed, and burger meat cleaned off of the rest of it.

at that point i generally get the meat into a cooler and get some ice onto it so i can quit for the day... in a day or 2 ill bring it all inside and debone it. for that, youll need a good fillet knife(i actually use a fishing fillet knife), and a big cutting board. again, i prefer 2 of both so i can have help. id rather do 2 deer with someone else, than 1 deer by myself. then all youll need is a vacuum sealer and bags.

there are a ton of different techniques out there. there is a learning curve. if you can have someone teach you that would help massively. but even if you do, watch tons of videos. especially for deboning. youll find your own technique that you like best.

youll also realize how much of the deer goes to waste. in the beginning you are going to want to try to save every tiny morsel of meat... after a couple deer youll realize what you have to let go. and that is different for everyone. some people cut the meat/fat from between the ribs... some people let that go... some people cut off the ribs and make them like beef ribs. some people turn the neck into a roast... some people cut what meat they can off of it, and put it in a roast.

some people are ok with tons of deer fat and connective tissue in their burger... some people want clean meat in it. some people cut all their hind quarter meat into steaks, some people keep everything as roasts.


edit:
this video shows the way i quarter the deer. except it takes me 10x as long, haha. follow up to the 10 minute mark. im not a fan of his deboning technique. i am, but i prefer to do it on the table, not hanging, and i prefer to clean all the outer silver skin off of it before i separate the muscle groups. and he also leaves a biiig chunk of burger meat on the lower leg bone.

u/riddle3master · 1 pointr/backpacks

Hmm stuff to carry. I think the main thing I would recommend would be a rain cover. I'm not sure how often you are outside with your backpack, but this is great to carry in case of rain. Went through three years of college with one, and for where I live it was plenty useful. Super lightweight and doesn't take up any space.

----

Also keep in mind that the GR1 doesn't come with a waist strap or a chest strap. Those are separate purchases. With a pack that small you probably won't need a waist strap unless you join their Rucking events.

---

If you're one who dislikes the backpack straps flapping all over the place, you can invest in web dominators. There are other types so if you are interested, be sure to look at the others as well. This probably won't make too much of a difference for a bag like the GR1 since you only have two straps to deal with. Personally, I have not invested into such a thing, but it always seemed like an appealing concept.


Still pretty new to all this stuff myself. I mostly just have knowledge from researching online rather than owning the products. Hope some of this helps!

u/fromkentucky · 2 pointsr/Bushcraft

I've tried a LOT of different knives in a wide range of sizes and 4-5" seems to be ideal for me. I want a blade that's at least twice as long as the thickness of anything I'd try to baton and I don't really need to baton anything thicker than 2 inches. In my opinion, batoning is for making kindling and I use anything larger than 2" as fuel, not kindling.

Take a look at this picture for a second. That's a 20.8oz Gerber Bear Grylls Survival Hatchet and a 22.5oz Ontario RTAK II, after the same number of chops on the same log. The RTAK II is a BIG knife made for chopping wood but it can't even match the performance of a hatchet that is both smaller, lighter and 1/3 of the price.

You say hatchets are "specialized" tools as if they aren't capable of more than 1 or 2 things, but a good hatchet is one of the most versatile tools available. I carved my first bow drill kit with a Fiskars X7, in addition to chopping, limbing, splitting, carving feather sticks, etc.

I've had a KaBar Becker BK7, Ontario RAT 5, multiple machetes and other big knives but even though my BK7 chopped and split better than my current ESEE 4, it sucked at everything else and my $25 Fiskars X7 still chopped and split better. I've just never found big knives to be as useful as a good hatchet (or a folding saw) paired with a well made work knife, like an ESEE 4. That combo offers FAR more versatility, which saves you calories, for only a few more ounces and for the price difference, you can save weight elsewhere by splurging a little on Titanium cookware.

All that being said, if I could only take a knife with me, then I'd take a BK7 or an ESEE 6, but I'd still prefer a good hatchet over either of them.

What backpack to use?

I currently use a Maxpedition Kodiak Gearslinger to carry my camera, lenses and assorted gear. I pulled the padding and dividers from an old shoulder camera bag and placed it into the Gearslinger. This has worked quite well, with the sling bag setup allowing me to quickly shift the bag forward to access the camera and lenses, as well as being a decent platform when I’m changing lenses. It has also proven to be very reliable - No tears or malfunctions in the ~5 years I’ve been had it.

The bag has also been good when flying – I take it as a ‘personal item’ with wallet, phone, tablet, headphones while a rolling carryon carries other "need on the flight/too precious to place in checked bag" items.

Recently I’ve been running into two main issues –

  1. The sling bag lacks a hip belt and can get uncomfortable on long hikes.
  2. I find I need to carry more non-photography items along, and there isn’t a great amount of room. Also, more stuff means more weight, and more weight amplifies problem 1.

    I’m trying to find a comfortable backpack that would allow me to carry camera+lenses (Canon 6D, Canon 50mm 1.8, Canon 70-300 4.5-5.6, Canon 35-80 4.5-5.6) along with spare batteries, memory cards, flash (sometimes) as well as some extra ‘stuff’ – water bottle, snacks, sweatshirt, 1st aid and other items my wife might shift over to me to lessen her weight. I have a GorrilaPod with a ball head on the outside (threaded through molle straps on the side).

    What do you use? What do you recommend?

    I know what I’m asking is somewhat conflicting – I want it to be comfortable, spacious but not too big, allow easy access to photo gear but hopefully not require completely removing the pack to access it. I’m hoping that there’s a bag that hits my sweet spot for these. I’ve already modified a non-photo bag and can do so again. I just need the bag to have the right ‘bones’.

    And since there's always a relevant XKCD: https://xkcd.com/1952/
u/StarMagus · 1 pointr/ZAWeapons

Those Cold Steel Machete's are fun and actually seem to hold up pretty well, but in my experience you have to do more with them out of the box than you do with other blades.

This also gets pretty high reviews, and having watched some video reviews of it on Youtube I picked it up and have not been disappointed.

All that said, I've had really good luck with Condor Big Blades.

Ive Got a small brush it says its a concealer brush on the side and was well worth the couple bucks.)

    Extra batteries(3 I think because Im terrible at remembering to charge)

    Gorilla Pod(tripod)

    Extra SD

    Pen/Pencil

    The Bottle holder on this bag is perfect as a holster when I have the 70-300 on the camera




    Those are my two main bags as of right now, and if I want I can throw the A6k in with the canon or vice versa so if I want both on me I have the ability. That ability to holster the canon gives the Versipack a slight lead in capability if I want to carry both. Oh and I carry an instax printer in one or the other most the time just because its a fun item to have and be able to print from.




    I like to roadtrip and hike a lot so these bags being as small as they are, are perfect to grab throw in the car and go. Both are water resistant(versipack has an add. water protection flap) so Im not worried to much about rain and I just cut some foam to put in the bottom of the main pouches for a lil extra protection against bumps.

    When I say I hike I mean if I see a spot I think would be good for a snap and its on top of this ridge/hill Ive now become an amateur mountain climber and Im getting up there so I need something I can quickly sling over my back and start scrambling.

    I really like the sling bag style because lets say Im halfway up and realize that where Im at right then would be a cool shot I can hang on with one hand and then with one free hand i can swing the bag to my front grab the camera and have it back on my back without ever taking the bag off or any possibility of dropping the bag and watching it tumble 100ft down. Then I get home and realize all I got a picture of was a trees leaves. Plus the sling bags give you a bit of leeway when youre out and about and a place doesnt allow backpacks but if you keep it over one shoulder the places Ive been in havent batted an eye. (Hahah if a woman can carry a purse right?)

    TLDR; 5.11 Tactical MOAB 6(sony A600), and a Maxpedition Jumbo Versipack(Canon T3i). I hike a lot.

Not that particular one.

Used it to apply pressure for somebody.

Also the material could easily lift a person in a jam, assist in climbing a tree, etc. it’s super strong.

u/glenwiley · 2 pointsr/CampingGear

6'4" tall, 250lbs male: I really like my US GI Alice pack (large). If you replace the issue hip belt with one of the newer MOLLE molded hip belts you will find that it is a great pack and very light on the budget.

It doesn't have a front panel but it does have 6 external pockets that give you good access and organization.

As an external frame pack the air flow is better than any of the internal frame packs.

Maxpedition Fatboy line of bags is probably good for you. I have used one for 4+ years now as a airplane carry on/summer road trip bag/hiking. It's extremely well made for the price.

Also, they have several variations of the bag for different purposes, be sure to pick the one that will be best for you. The one I linked you is just the one I have. Maxpedition Jumbo Versipack, Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001MTG35E/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_v3wrzbWZ5T5J0

I'd been looking for a similar bag for a long, long time. I also needed the bag to be able to conceal my sidearm. After a few unsuccessful purchases, I got one of these Maxpedition Jumbo Versapack and am very, very pleased. It is extremely well made and you can even add more maxpedition pieces, as you desire.

I've used my bag almost every day for almost 2 years now and I still love it.

u/Pattycaaakes · 2 pointsr/EDC

I used to carry this it was $10 when I bought it but it's enormous compared to the little twister, so I would only carry it in this bag. I only use that bag when I'm out, so most times around the house I don't have a light on me. Not anymore. I'm like a superhero with super vision... seeing behind bookcases... shining a light into the dark... accurately reaching dropped items... like a superhero.

u/DaSilence · 2 pointsr/ProtectAndServe

:(

I had an awesome one back in the day that dropped into the spare tire well. It had a couple of compartments that had plastic lids to organize things. With the CV being phased out everywhere, they're available at state surplus sites for pennies on the dollar.

OK, so since that's not an option, here's what I'd suggest.

First, get yourself a couple of tackle boxes. One for your basic crime scene stuff (powders, tape, brushes, etc), one for your first aid stuff, one for odds and ends.

Next, invest in an under-bed storage tote. The long one. Measure your trunk first, then find one that's the right length. That will hold your bulkier stuff. Make sure to get one that hinges in the middle.

Then, it's all about the bags. Active shooter bag, bag for stuff you need but don't keep in the cabin, etc. If you're as paper dependent as we were back in the day, consider one of those hard-sided hanging file holders.

Take homes for the win!

u/BatteryLicker · 3 pointsr/myog

I used 3/4" blue sleeping pad as the foam in shoulder straps and a hip belt. If you don't need a lot of padding, it'd be easier to sew through/around 3D mesh (possible ventilation) or thinner 1/4" foam or a yoga mat. 500D Cordura is extremely durable and affordable fabric, 250D would be lighter and thinner. Using ripstop nylon would be another option (Joann's fabrics has some) and lighter weight, but not as tough as Cordura. Note that Cordura and different nylons aren't 'breathable' but I prefer not having them soak up sweat.

Check http://www.rockywoods.com/ and http://www.seattlefabrics.com/

How I made straps (two cordura layers around blue foam)

  1. Sew your webbing and buckles to the outer piece of fabric (cordura).

  2. Sew the front and back fabric together. Either sew the fabric panels inside out and stuff foam into sleeve OR sew the fabric around the padding and bind the edges.

  3. Sew a few bars through the foam to hold it in place.

    3D Mesh Belt (cordura outside, 3D mesh inside)

  4. Sew webbing and buckles to fabric outer layer

  5. Sew 3D mesh to fabric outer and bind edges

  6. Sew bars to keep the two pieces from separating

    [edit]

    Look at these for inspiration (or buy one) this, this, this, etc. You can also search for 'removable hip belt' patterns. Make sure you leave enough space in the front to cinch the belt (so foam only covers back and hips)
u/MobiusOneFox2 · 1 pointr/bicycling

Found it. It's Osprey Escapist 32. It's a great bag. It even has a pouch for extra shoes and a rain cover. Also make sure you pick these up! These are web dominators and helps keep your extra straps held down together (so they don't flap in the wind).

I tanned my deer skin from a couple years ago and it took so long I never really finished it. I would highly suggest getting the tools and work space prepared before starting the work as it takes a long time to complete with half assed prep.

You can salt the hide and keep it up to a year before tanning so don't feel rushed to start just because you have the skins.

I used this stuff and followed the directions on the bottle. I also watched some of these videos by skillcult on youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nEcJVruXj-s&list=PL60FnyEY-eJChUzoIGCqYE20rpjbfOgfc

He does some more ye olde natural tanning methods though. But he has good info on the rest of it like fleshing the hides and whatnot.

I was using a duffel bag, but I got this for Christmas:

It's got 2 inner Velcro pockets that are great for throwing brass into.

Get a bottle of Deer hunter hunter and trappers tanning solution. Works great and it only takes a couple days. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0031TRZJG/ref=mp_s_a_1_1_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1478297589&sr=8-1&keywords=deer+tanning+formula

I attached a Molle waist belt to a Rush 24 and it has worked out great. I believe it has the same attachment points as the 12.

This is the one I use:

u/Virisenox_ · 2 pointsr/flashlight

Maxpedition Single Sheath

It's MOLLE compatible, but also works on a belt, either horizontally or vertically. Made of nylon. I have a double, which is just two of them on one backing, and it's perfect for 1" lights.

That one is the best IMO. Amazon doesn't have it in stock right now though.

u/Zap_Franka · 1 pointr/onebag

Nice review..I've owned lots of Kifaru gear over the years. As far as the webbing: don't cut it, or think twice (for resale value).

I highly recommend the ITW Web Dominators for keeping a tidy pack (or any with Molle webbing that is).

u/TinyPupPup · 6 pointsr/ManyBaggers

I use webbing dominators on my gear to keep straps under control.

They’re so cheap and easy to install that I don’t even really think about strap management when looking at a new piece of kit, knowing it’s something I can easily fix myself.

I have gotten a lot of use out of my 5.11 Range Ready Bag
I've been using it for years, plus they have some good photos on the website showing the layout.

$93 at Amazon

Edit: added price

u/narmak · 1 pointr/photography

I got one of these and use it all the time, has tons of pockets and can also hold a notebook/reading material. Really sturdy and great for biking around with your camera in tow. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001MT8RC6/ref=oh_details_o06_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Can you verify if it's this? I'd love to have a deer pelt <3

5.11 tactical makes some great stuff: 5.11 Tactical Range Bag, Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000JWD04W/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_7Sfbvb0WG3KSV

u/cba85 · 2 pointsr/onebag

Nice solution! You should try to use web dominators too. That's what I use on my AER travel pack. https://www.amazon.com/ITW-Web-Dominators-Pack-Black/dp/B005IAAZUC

u/KUbeastmode · 2 pointsr/TripleAughtDesign

I use these to manage the straps, they are amazing and come standard on the fast pack series. https://www.amazon.com/ITW-Web-Dominators-Pack-Black/dp/B005IAAZUC

u/qweltor · 2 pointsr/CCW

I use(d) a Maxpedition Single Sheath for my Leatherman. You might probably find it locally at the tacticool store, police supply or army/navy surplus store ($18 @ Amazon).

In the vertical position, the loop will fit over the 2"-buckle. If you like the horizontal position, the loops open with velcro, and will be less hassle than undoing the velcro on the belt each morning/evening (or you could leave it loose/large enough to slip over the buckle).

u/AdmireNot · 2 pointsr/Trappit

I used this orange bottle.

It worked, but i honestly didn't do them well enough to make anything clothing grade tanned. They're just hanging up in my garage now.

I just got a Gerber Bear Grylis Survival Hatchet on Amazon black friday deal for $22.80.
https://www.amazon.com/Gerber-Grylls-Survival-Hatchet-31-002070/dp/B00B0I2DBK

with the prime now offer you can use 15offnow and it knocked off $15. so the total was $7.80. However i added $5 tip

so $13.54 for a hatchet

Not exactly a mag pouch, I actually use an Uncle Mike's Shell Pouch that used to be for trap shooting. The nice thing about the pouch is that the inside is separated in half by a small wall, which allows you to place stuff like magazines and shells on one side while keeping speedloaders and spare BBs on the other.

u/NoSheDidntSayThat · 2 pointsr/guns

this is a good belt for the money

u/Classic_rock_fan · 2 pointsr/longrange

I don't have a waist belt on mine, just cause I'm only using it for school and life. To find the waist belt I would go back to where you found the molle attachments, I found one on amazon http://www.amazon.com/Army-Molle-Desert-Molded-Waist/dp/B006UBSXSY/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top?ie=UTF8 so this might help.

u/pfcJ0KER · 0 pointsr/CCW

I absolutely love my Uncle Mike's I can use a public restroom without fear of going open carry on accident - holds up well too when I carry my full size Glock OWB, or my SCCY IWB - and it doesn't break the bank like a lot of the "CCW" belts, but it's essentially the same thing Nylon with a inner hard plastic core for stability.

u/dzlux · 5 pointsr/Hunting

Call your wma to confirm their carcass disposal rules (that you can leave the bones, etc) and you should be good. Likely won’t find a cleaning facility though.

I definitely prefer quartering a hog into the cooler before leaving rather than loading the whole carcass into the truck.

If you are hunting solo then I would suggest a cheap pulley gambrel or trying out a gutless approach where you split the skin down the spine. Fair warning though, the gutless method works well for a quick cleaning but can be a little awkward on the rear quarters.

u/theabevigoda · 1 pointr/malefashionadvice

I use this. It's a tactical bag, but I added some padding on the bottom for protection. The webbing is so convenient for odds and ends and the pouches work well for small to normal sized lenses.

u/alt-box · 2 pointsr/streetwear

Looks a lot like a Maxpedition jumbo versipack minus the label

ETA like so, in khaki

u/IceManJim · 1 pointr/geocaching

Travel Bugs - I prefer the plain dog tags. My mother got me some large coins, which are nice, but I can't let them go.

Hiking/outdoor equipment - trek pole, muck boots, waders, rain suit, quality bug repellent, kayak, 4x4 Jeep.....

Bag for carrying your stuff - I have one similar to this:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001MTG35E/ref=s9_acsd_hps_bw_c_x_2_w

There are cheaper versions. Also stuff to go in it; hemostats, pens, flashlight, extendable mirror, pens, multi-tool, battery packs, zip ties, writing paper, pens, ziplock bags, Rite-in-Rain logbooks, tiny screwdriver, gloves, and lastly, pens.

u/Rdepaz · 1 pointr/guns

I picked this
one up from Amazon a few weeks ago and it handles my P226 Legion and mag pouch just fine. No sag. I think I paid right around $26 for it shipped via Amazon Prime.



u/stylushappenstance · 2 pointsr/backpacking

While I agree generally with what everyone else is saying, there is one circumstance when I cut wood. Sometimes, state parks where I live cut up downed trees and pile it up near backcountry sites and it still needs to be split or cut into smaller pieces. You can get a pretty lightweight backpacking hatchet for this. I have this one.

u/fattypenguin · 2 pointsr/Homebrewing

My bag has hook loops on it so I use a deer hanger pulley system with just the hook, not the big part you jam in the deer.

http://www.amazon.com/Hunters-Specialties-Lift-System-Gambrel/dp/B003RY9YIU

Then I let my bag just drain into my boil pot for about 30 minutes or so. It also lets me sparge a little if I want to rinse out the grains.

u/melon_head · 1 pointr/Homebrewing

gambrel pulley system

The only real problem was lowering the grain after mash and directing it wide of the pot, took some arm strength.

u/exoriare · 4 pointsr/AskMenOver30

Maxpedition Versipack. Maxpedition stuff is pricy, but it's extremely overengineered and rugged as hell.
