New to this so let's get started

[Hrusai]

a great big welcome from dorset to both the new preppers!!

to the first guy, have a read through some of the older threads on this site, theres alot to learn, same as on the main site, check out links and such like, since your into the idea of learning to make bows check out this website http://www.primitiveways.com/#anchor696518
ive learnt alot from their articles not just about making primitive tools and materials but also about fire starting and general survival!

i also recommend getting together a digital library of survival related literature together, something you can just sit and read for a few minutes or even a few hours, 30 minutes sitting in bed reading about new skills will help alot, as will any method of regularly taking in knowledge, the more you read, and re read, the more will sink in permenantly....and remember, its all very well and good reading alot, but doing the stuff you read about is a whole different ball game!! so once you've read about making yourself a fire, go out and make one without any matches or a lighter! not only will you feel great but you'll get a feel for the skill

oh and knowledge never runs out, even after supplies do!

and to prepaday, welcome to the forum, i hope you enjoy your time here you'll not only learn alot but you'll be accepted....regardless of specific beliefs! so have fun, keep on prepping....and the "oh and knowledge never runs out, even after supplies do!" is a good thing to remember
