What's missing from the toolkit? - troll - 8th January 2009 full english breakfast...wizards sleeve...... that publication saved my ailing soul sooooo many times sir! ..knowledge without action is insanity and action without knowledge is vanity..(imam ghazali,ayyuhal-walad) What's missing from the toolkit? - John Walford - 8th January 2009 How about an optical square, for the surveyors amongst us? "Hidden wisdom and buried treasure, what use is there in either?" (Ecclesiasticus ch20 v30) What's missing from the toolkit? - BAJR Host - 8th January 2009 OPTICAL RIGHT ANGLE PRISM ALLOWS FOR DETERMINATION OF RIGHT ANGLE POINTS AND PERPENDICULAR POINT BETWEEN TWO TARGETS. IS THAT WHAT YOU ARE AFTER? NICHE MARKET THAT! ... BET YOU ALREADY HAVE ONE>>>> [:I] oops sorry for shouting.. but I am not rewriting that... do you know how hard it is to write perpendicual "Gie's a Job.." Prof. 'Dolly' Parton What's missing from the toolkit? - gorilla - 9th January 2009 Some thoughts... not all necessarily to do with outdoorsy work For the environmentalists amongst us... a pack of those paper, yet waterproof lables and a few permanent (black) marker pens (medium and fine). Furthermore... a plastic trowel or leaf type thingy for removing the muck (peat) off archaeological wood so as not to scar or damage it (although good ole Francis Pryor told me that yer hands/fingers are the best tool to get peat off wood... fine if the context is JUST peat, but if some gravel is included it can be a bit ouchificating) The leads for those Rotring Tikky Pencils Balls of string (both cord and plasticated)... and lot's of it! For setting up sections and tying up sample bags. A pocket calculator. If yer indoors and doing some pot drawing... window lead strips (great for profiles). What's missing from the toolkit? - Wibblehead - 9th January 2009 Quote:quote:Originally posted by gorilla absolutely. none of our team can do maths, and we're also inept with new-fangled things like mobile phones. And it's no use asking any of the volunteers we work with, cos they're still using the abacus. Kneeling mats/gloves? A lot of the work we do it with volunteers, the majority of whom are not in the first throws of youth. Has anyone mentioned hazard tape? Also those little garden canes (which go together with hazard tape to make reasonable flags for fieldwalking). What's missing from the toolkit? - BAJR Host - 9th January 2009 leads for those Rotring Tikky Pencils we have them... What about kneeling pads... would you buy them.. ?? I hope so... I certainly use them! Hazard tape.. good point A calculator.. will check up on this window lead strips... intersting concept... I also have a flexible ruler... thats a great idea plastic trowel or leaf type thingy ... like it! "Gie's a Job.." Prof. 'Dolly' Parton What's missing from the toolkit? - Wibblehead - 10th January 2009 Inspired by a mythbusters i just saw.... Thick plastic sheeting, for preserving delicate lawns. Also competent student diggers. :face-approve: Boxed and ready to use. Our last lot turned up on site on sandals!!! Thunder rolled. ... It rolled a six. What's missing from the toolkit? - Dirty Dave Lincoln - 10th January 2009 Different coloured flags?- ideal for field walking or on sites:face-approve: What's missing from the toolkit? - BAJR Host - 10th January 2009 metal or plastic pins on the flag? "Gie's a Job.." Prof. 'Dolly' Parton What's missing from the toolkit? - Dirty Dave Lincoln - 10th January 2009 Hmm, me thinks metal-better for penetration. |
