Useful for field work

I'm a mine geologist and because I serve many purposes at work during field time that compartmentalized clipboard is extremely useful. I even put in a cut up fake credit card (prying tool) in one of the compartments and it never moved around into other compartments. It is well made.

Useful and compact, a bit expensive for the purpose but attractive

I "borrowed" this book from a friend of mine back in '85 for a science project. I got an "A"; much of which I attribute to this booklet. Its 112 pages contain a nice collection of about 250 trees commonly found in the south-eastern US.

It's meant as a field guide, so the information is a little thin, but the illustrations are professional and helpful in identifying unknown trees.

Since it's so old, it's out-of-print. However, the content is taken (pretty much word-for-word) from "Trees of North America: A Guide to Field Identification" from St. Martin's Press - which has a current version in print.

Used in the field to blow off equipment and air tires.  Even used it to charge the air system of a disabled semi tractor so it could be towed.
It has obvious capacity limitations but for occasional use it works fine.

These are extremely useful and good tools to have especially this model. As a field technician these are vital for my job due to the tiny screws that I encounter. Great set definite reliable and comfortable for  precise work.

I got this for my wife as a novelty gift, which she passed off to the kids.  I decided to write a review this morning, so I brought it with me to work to see if it could be used to inspect metal cutting tools for wear, and machinery parts to determine the type of wear.
This is a neat little scope. It obviously isn't directly comparable to the loupe or bench scope that would normally be used, but I was able to get the information that I needed with only moderate difficulty. The scope isn't optically perfect, parts if the viewing field are always a little out if focus, and the lenses are small so bright supplemental lighting (like an LED flashlight) is very helpful.  After using this scope this morning, I've decided to keep it handy and away from the kids, because it IS a useful alternative to expensive optics for home use.

A nice little field knife.  The sheath includes a small pocket for the fire starter.  Good rugged construction, came fairly sharp.  The "zombie" green cording is a bit much - I plan to remove it soon and add some handle scales in camo laminate material used for custom knives.  Decent grip, though a bit short for my XXL mitts.  With the matching mini axe (hatchet) I also ordered, they make a good set for outdoors use.  So far I am happy, and will update this review once I use them in the field.  Shipped very quick, even this close to the Christmas holiday.

This book get applause for being small enough to fit in a pocket yet packing enough information, including range maps(!) to assist the observer in the field.  We used it daily on our recent trip to Ecuador and found it stood up well to hard use.  The quick (one page) index to families in the back is very useful.  The taxonomy may be slightly dated but the same can be said of any guide book to South American avifauna as taxonomists are constantly reassessing species' status.

So far, love this backpck for field work. Lots of padding, pocket separation is nice, all the pockets and nylon straps seem to have good sewing though they are only single layer nylon. Overall construction seems fairly tough. Plenty of space in the main compartment for a ruggedized laptop, cables, and test equipment.

*For taller or broad shouldered folks, max shoulder strap length is a little tight, but they run the straps independent from the waist belt if you want to sew in some longer straps if you like to have your backpack ride a little lower.

I bought this in order to contain and transport some oddly shaped field equipment that has always been a problem because of its shape and bulk.  Although this was not designed for this purpose, it is working out very well.  Basically, I have a letter-set sign board stuffed in the large pocket, the letter set in the second largest, extendable range poles in the long-narrow one, some photographic equipment and north arrows in the smaller ones.  I can even add a field tablet to the medium sized pocket.  Not many people will consider this for the kind of use I am putting it to, but I am very happpy with the purchase.

This is a very useful book to be used with an actual field guide with pictures. I don't regret buying it as he goes into great detail and helps you remember the plants and their uses much better than a field guide alone. A good book for all foragers.

This knife is handy to carry and whittle twigs.  With a little reshaping on the smaller two blades they work well for detail work.

Avery useful tool to lighten the leaf collection work.

This works pretty well for an inexpensive device.  Although not terribly accurate, it can be used to identify areas of high fields that you want to stay away from.

Great price for field use.  I like how visible these are for drills.  Have stood up well to a variety of weather and plenty of cleat-stompings.

Got these and found not quite what I needed for project. However, I found that using these for tagging diffenent line and wires worked well for me too.
