Spontaneous Projects is a chronicle of all of my projects, a reference for me, and a way to prevent others from making the same mistakes.
A development trip out to
Pierces Creek these days sees me carrying a ludicrous amount of kit:
- Shoes and bouldering mat
- Chalk
- Camera
- Secateurs
- Wire brushes (at least 3)
- a jemmy
- Notebook and pen
- Maps
- and potentially a chainsaw and fuel

My preferred brushes for the moss covered granite out there are big wire brushes, at only a few dollars a piece, they are cheap and durable, and that rock won't be damaged by any brush. Unfortunately you also need a few thin brushes for cracks and more delicate work, so you get stuck with at least 3 different brushes. They also don't fit into my chalk bag - they must think we all use little tiny toothbrushes.
I've had brushes fall out of my mats a number of times, and the secateurs are also a likely candidate for getting lost on the walk in. Keeping them all together in a roll makes the bundle larger, and makes it harder to forget one.

I picked up some polyester canvas from Spotlight, and made a basic tool roll which looks cool, but most importantly is functional.
