When I was on my cs39 training in somerset a member of the production crew working on this programme came to film / learn from us as to how to climb trees and harvest timber.

 

I havent seen the programme but wonder if the experince was useful or just a jolly day out for the guy??

I am thinking they would have made a cleaner hole in that safe if they had saved some dynamite from last week.

Want there one of those pop science programs on BBC 1 last year that made glue from a whole bunch of stuff. They didn't need to do it just from bunnies, or waste that much time and effort. Addictive watching though :-)

 

In fact they made glue from milk....here's the link

Loved the rabbit glue. Not to sure if milk glue would have been much good, not after the way the floor plaster, which contained milk, started to crack up!

 

Thought the idea of making his own glass and the way they went about it was brilliant. The window they created from it was a work of art.
