We were given a sample notebook from Rite in the Rain to test out. Here are the initial photos before we put it to the test. According to their advertising their papers can withstand just about any weather. Their products get good reviews. We are looking forward to testing this one out.

Rite in the Rain All Weather Notebook

We saw a thread on EDC forum where one of the members figured out a way to tie a sling (for throwing rocks) out of one length of 550 cord. IT looked like a good way to go so I tried one of my own. It did not turn out as nice looking as the original, but it should function anyway. I tied a monkey fist (ball knot) on one end with a steel nut inside for weight. The other end is a loop to fit over a finger. The sling is used by putting the loop over a finger, then holding the monkey fist. A rock or other projectile is held in the pocket and then spun around. Centrifugal force is created and when the monkey fist is released from the hand, the rock is released and its potential energy from the spinning is unleashed into straight flight. It takes a bit of practice to get the aiming down, but it is possible to hit a rabbit or squirrel with some skill
