the move in major trauma has been away from celox granules and towards impregnated dressings, quicker, safer, and easier to work with, the added bonus is the product is easier to remove once in A&E. and as for touriquets, theyve never been out, just not being taught about (my first instructors were mine rescue team medics, and some of the things we were taught back then are still cutting edge to some "instructors" today) the only thing about using them is time control, "T" and time written clearly on the casualty, cos if you cant go with them, around the 15 min mark compartment syndrome starts to become a possible side effect (another thing you should be learning about on chainsaw first aid courses)

the gmc conversion eats LR boxes and diffs, better off buying the gmc to start with

once watched a local ned being convincied not to steal cars, it involved a baseball bat, the edge of a kerbstone, and both his hands, surprisingly none of the locals saw anything, and the inability of using his hands seemed to keep his face shut as well, no more car thefts after that

the minute you start using them for anything other than whats prescribed in "the rools", they cease to be an agricultural machine, and become either a 10 tonne truck or a special purpose vehicle(an even bigger can of worms)....it isnt worth it

haemostatic dressings and a cat field dressing on the braces, first aid kit in the van, and cos most of the areas we work up here are quite remote, the risk assesment always has the co-ordinates for the nearest helivac

when it comes to protection in a remote yard or property, the yanks have a much maligned phrase that makes a lot of sense at times....."I have a gun and a shovel, and I know how to use both......" no evidence = no case, think about it

any good engineering supply place should be able to get you left handed twist drills, there std fit on a lot of cnc machines, you can also get drill bushes that would fit into the hole and keep the drill centred, slow speed plenty of pressure and good cutting oil, a nice easy job, as long as you use quality drill bits !
