i've ued them for years on the end of sticks,easy to replace if you loose them too.a mate of mine...now read this carefully..... glues a tea cup to a saucer,glues a spent cartridge to the BOTTOM of the saucer,in the middle,"brass" to saucer,insert a stick to the cartridge.thus the cup&saucer can "sit" on the stick..With me so far? fill the cup with seed,stick it in the garden& BINGO a bird feeder!!!! we have tits in our cup.....make ya own jokes!!!!

well they did'nt get it wrong here in dorset.....pissistantly wet so far all morn!!!!

inspiration from you guys as i'm off this eve for a bit of the same...it's just soooooooooooo cold out more like winter than spring!!!

as mentioned above WARM CLOTHING at the mo' plenty of layers that you can take off&put on i prefer.better to have it&not need it than need it& not have it!!!,i've only been doing it a year&not a brilliant permission but some days i can bag a few&i only have basic stuff about a dozen shell decoys 1 crow &half a doz' full body,ex mod cammo net doubled over on home made(washing line prop) poles..Whatever ya do ,enjoy it& be safe!!!

i've used old 12g emptys they can get lost but i've always got replacements

tried yester day not a bird to be seen!! even by the farm house(where i can't shoot) there were only a dozen or so.normally as i drive up the access lane i see flocks of 20/30 moving around but ziltch yesterday

i read of a guy who adapted an old golf trolly from the tip > me i drive it there!

i contacted the forestry commision in LYNDHURST about 4years ago..................still waiting for an answer!!

been out today....not a pigeon to be seen,plenty of gulls tho'(brief storey,father in law had a nice piece of homemade fruit cake,sat eating it on Poole quay,pointed to brownsea to show something& wallop!! gull took his cake..bl**dy big bit too,he was never 1 for swearing but he did that day!!)back to the field... i also had plenty of cormorants,buzzard& as i packed up a Perigrine!! so no wonder i had no luck!!!

wow very good brilliant work,but way too much for the average home knife maker but great to see craft is still out there.

have a go! i'm still f*rting about with a homemade knife attempt .just enjoy & have fun!

I use threaded bar &araldite,get the edges near to right ,trim later. i use a biy of leather(old harness) too between the antler/top&stick,clean up with a dremmel&fine sand after...bob's ya uncle

nice work mate,i've made an attempt on making one but nothing like this!!! started to use a blade form aold pair shears so hope they'll turn out when time allows.i like the way you've left some erosion "scars" on it well done.

music is tooooooooooooo much ,shooting ain't good.production is good but not my cup'o'tea!
