How long can meat wait between killing and eating, unrefrigerated? I want to make a painting of a dead rabbit and my spouse agreed to shoot one for me. It might take all day to paint. But I hate to waste it as meat, and would feel better if I could paint it then eat it. How many hours can it sit out to be looked at without going bad? Thank you /out/.
Depends on the temperature. You can hang the meat for a week on birds and rabbits and hares in a coldish cellar and it's still edible.
Forgot to say, it will be 75 degrees today. Tomorrow will be 50. I want to get to work but it could wait til tomorrow if it makes any difference.

What angle are you painting it from? If the belly isn't visible you could gut the rabbit and preserve the meat longer. 50 farenheit will probably be fine.
Why hasn't modern science been able to create synthetic fabrics that are superior to wool?
Synthetic insulating fabrics are already warmer by weight, dry much faster, cheaper, and are more comfortable to wear.
The problem is that synthetic fabrics don't do well around fire and they get stinky faster which is going to be tough to solve.

Pls die. like. fall into an old mineshaft, break your hips and knees, and starve to death. Die. but I suppose that might be hard to do, since you never leave your house. so choke on a dorito and die that way.

it comes down to micro size per thread.. lots of company's aren't gonna foot the bill to give you super soft synthetic fibers.. so they are expensive, like real expensive not dicksporting goods expensive. Rayon can pretty much be turned...

#29- "We have lost against the sneks" Edition

I was just talkin to a guy who lives on this lake I'm at, and he said he pulled a 14lb snakehead out of here recently and it was 46" or something stupid. Then I got that fatty today that had to be close to 5lb.
Either way, he says he doesn't even kill them anymore, one reason is because most of the eggs still survive. But he was on a boat, I normally leave them on land. Anyway he says he still...

I was homeless for 2 months last summer, didn't live innawoods. Learned a lot about how to survive in urban areas though.
Any questions?

how do you avoid low iq drugged up bums and street filth?

Don't associate with them any more than you have to and keep your time spent hanging in areas they do to a minimum.

Hey /out/, what boots do you use for hiking? I had pic related for a year (they are actually snow boots, since I'm moving up north where there will be snow) in which I never did any actual hiking, and now that I actually went hiking for the past 5 days, I hiked a total of around 25 miles in rocky terrain and to my dismay they got fucked up terribly by he end of it.
I've heard people here say they have hiked over 200 miles or something, what boots can put up with that? Which ones do you personally use and are they any good?
>>698005
I just bought a pair of Arcteryx Bora 2's for a trek in Patagonia. 100 miles later plus some hikes around my home, I've probably got close to 200 miles on them total already and they are showing very few signs of wear. I had some other issues with the lower lace hook causing some pressure but after I got that sorted they fit and feel pretty great. Maybe a little warm if you're not going to be in water, snow or cold, but even hiking around in California they weren't too bad, but maybe not ideal.
>>698005
Only newbs wear boots
389km so far with my Meindls Borneos MFS boots, in all king of trail : grass, rocky, muddy, sandy, snowy, icy, dry, soaked.
They have signs of wear, but they are not fucked up at all and can go for another 400 km.
The boots in your pic are for snow only, that's why they don't hold well in rocky terrain.
I am looking for a few good people to help me build a very small, close knit, community of like minded individuals who wish to start fresh. This community will be unplugged from society as much as possible and will be as self sufficient as we can. Living off of and on the land, gathering our own food, building shelters, finding water, everything we need to do to survive.
This is no weekend retreat. I have done this once, solo, for about a year before family matters brought me back. This time I am aiming for far more than a year. Anyone else with the ambition, knowledge,...

Hey, /out/.
I know most of us will have exams coming up over the few weeks, but you might like this just to socialise with other people from /diy/ (and a few other boards) and take the edge off exam stress a little.
There's a 4chan minecraft server going up, sort of a board-wide thing, and I just thought you lot might be interested to come on and chill out on it for a bit. Like the boards, just faster. It's pirate friendly, so you should be able to connect on a client you got from piratebay. IP is "4chab.online".

What's the seed for that map? I don't play online but that looks like a good map for some solo survival.

Advertising is against global rules. Even worse ou posted this everywhere. It probably steals your Minecraft session to boot.
People have been fucking up my campsite when I'm not there: littering, destroying the flora, and making it gross in general. What it seems like is a group of hooligan kids that go there to drink. What are some ways to sabotage the camp for good?
My idea: dig out the whole clearing, making it a pond. So far all I've done is write FU in stones and pissed all over them so when they move the rocks they touch my urine
I'd opt to stay away from booby traps that could harm people, because it could hurt an animal
>get electronic predator call
>hide in woods
>play dying animal sound
>proceed to scare the shit out of hooliganz
Just straight up kill them. There is no witnesses. They won't find a thing. Those CSI TV shows aren't even close to realistic. Bury them in a swamp or bog.

Turn the place into some scary occult ritual site, leftovers from the butchershop, feathers, occult symbols all over the place, the full monty.
If the are in or some blairwitch fun, then sneak in (do not forget your pestilence mask and ghillie suit!) and play some really scary sounds from tape.
I have a 26'' Hyper Havoc Full Suspension 21 Speed that I bought for $100 a couple years ago (pic related) and the guy who put it together was lazy or inept
and it fell apart on me during a ride home from high school but now I have it at college and after doing some repair and mechanical trickery it is kind of working.

>I know I need a specific size chain but I don't have the manual with me so I'm not sure what size chain to get
If it's a 21 speed you need a 7 speed chain because the back wheel has 7 cogs (something like a SRAM PC-830 7/8 speed chain). It'll probably be too long, so you take out a few links with a chain tool.
>Is there a place where I can find an owners manual online for it cause I haven't found one yet
Probably not one...

21 speed in your case means 3 chain rings on the crank and 7 cogs on the rear hub. You will need a 7 speed chain. You will also need a chain break to correctly size it, remove links. I build my own bikes as a hobby. I'm probably 7/10 good at it but watch a lot of YouTube videos and own pic related.

The outdoors don't belong to you, if you're that intent on being isolated, it's time to stop camping in cushy campgrounds with charcoal grills for your leisure and actually backpack in somewhere.

No need to be hostile buddy. Never said anythig abou a secret club so calm your tits. I never understand why people like you see sonethig on the internet that bothers you SO much that you can't just ignore it.

you could experiment with it, I'll use a bit on some flies to control the depth of a sink, or to keep something closer to the surface on a swing.

Video of today's catch. A nice plump brown trout. Didn't actually expect there to be fish in this section of the river. Casted a few times and saw him feeding just upstream from me.

Can we talk about ponchos for a second?
I really really want the Hazard 4 Poncho Villa, but have heard that it's only water resistant for about an hour in the rain. I want it to be completely waterproof.
Should I add some type of waterproof material or treat it with some type of concoction to make it completely waterproof?
How would one go about doing this?
Should I just look for another poncho?
>what do you guys wear on rainy /out/ings?
>>730170
I'm looking for some poncho in green, brown and white ( spring/summer, fall, winter ) I can stuff into a bug-out bag but I want them to be mil-spec or stronger. I don't know anything about reputable poncho brands tho so I'm just gonna use this post as a bump for your topic because I'm interested too.
>>730177
Thanks for the bump
>>730190
np, glad I could help.
These are not poncho but I found this website that makes wool, leather and knife products that might be of interest to you. Here is there wool-wear. http://www.gfredasbell.com/gfa_wool_clothing.php
Hey guys, just a general /out/ dog thread, with dogs outdoors, whether they're just part-time woods-dogs, sled dogs, hunting dogs, etc.
