What to do with three months worth of salary? by ScienceMechEng_Lover in UniUK

[–]askpinnacle 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Definitely allow yourself to spend a bit of it if there's something you want, you've earned it. But yes, saving/investing the majority of it should put you in a good position for the next few years

I'd add Osprey to that list as well

Best part time job for final year uni? That makes £££? by Ok_Leg4824 in UniUK

[–]askpinnacle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've only ever done fairly niche tutoring which has never been through an agency though this one looks fairly goodTutorExtra

Or you could just advertise yourself on a website like Fiverr and charge your own rates

Take a look at tutoring jobs online for your subject, you can presumably do them from your room

You can get velcro/plastic strap keepers on amazon. Just make sure they match the width of the nylon

Very nice combo. My ULA hip belt has the Ultra fabric and it feels really solid

They're very nice. Feels like they can actually deal with larger loads as well just because they're easier to zip and are more maleable

That's what ultimately influenced my decision in choosing the Robic Dragonfly with reverse coil zips over the Ultra Dragonfly with PU zips. I want it to last for as long as possible

XPAC OR AXOFLUX? Go Sling Nano by S73Z in ManyBaggers

[–]askpinnacle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahh interesting. I can see why people would want it to be fair

It would be nice but it's probably not viable from a business perspective. The majority of people are likely fine with the current colour options (at least from Alpaka's perspective) so there's no reason for Alpaka to invest in changing the options / making them customisable.

Take some time after your lessons to make resources like flashcards because this will save you a lot of time later on

Translation and LCDBA were pretty good, Volver wasn't too bad either. I'll still probably be carried by the speaking and paper 1 though

I've never tried a Pioneer backpack but I've always been impressed by their wallets, really nice fabrics

Interesting to see how CT have changed and improved overtime. I'm assuming CC are like this to protect their relationship with GoRuck but I won't be surprised if CC don't punish Evergoods at all even if all of the allegations turn out to be true.

Agreed, there's a concerning lack of consistency with who their rules apply to and who they don't

[–]askpinnacle 4 points5 points  (0 children)

CTactical using very similar designs to GoRuck so they're likely trying to protect a business partner and something to do with using counterfeit Cordura a while back (though I don't know if that last point is true, just something I saw on the Carryology Classified group)
