Happy shooting for those of you, who can catch the "total" eclipse!

One of these days, I am going to make me one of these 😀

Would you have the guts to climb that tree? I have done many sketchy things in my life, but this, I'd likely nope out.

My truck is my castle. Impressive!

Itchy Boots is kind of the mother of all overlanders. She has been travelling the world by motorcycle for 6 or 7 years now. In this episode, she gets stuck in the mud of Liberia.

Travelling around the world by motorcycle was my big yet unrealisable dream, when I was young. So, this lady is living my dream, and I thoroughly enjoy watching her doing it.

Calendar; some serious maths wizardry here on how to get 31 numbers out of 2 12-sided cubes. 😀

Fun challenge!

This kind of thing makes me wish I could have a "free life" like that...

Every 5 to 7 years, a mechanical watch must be completely disassembled, cleaned, freshly lubricated and reassembled for servicing.

It's an exciting puzzle of many parts, tiny screws of various sizes, springs, gears, etc. Here we have the opportunity to watch a watchmaker in action.

This also works on lawn mowers, plastic trash cans and the like. Success probably depends on the kind of plastic used.

And you can use a heat gun instead of propane, which may take a little longer, but works just as well; at least it did for me.

This guy seems to be dedicated as hell. Building a thing like this is almost beyond my comprehension.

Years of experience, I guess.

It takes a lot of patience, a sharp eye or three, and lots of experience to pull such a restoration off.

Master engraver Uri Tuchman makes a wonderful little hammer.

Overlander Eva zu Beck and her dog Vilk are trying an ultra marathon near the Arctic Circle - in winter.

The effect is amazing!

Black bear forge has really spiked my interest in blacksmithing. If only I had a place, where I could have open fire...
