GOT DIY : Project work

heatmeiser · April 5, 2013

I'm not the type to involve myself in big projects in the shed - I don't really have the patience or manual skills needed to be honest.

I've just started making a Biltong Box though - as I'm utterly addicted to the delicious South African snack and need it every single day.

Look at it's delicious, dried goodness

Do we have any GOTers that can actually make impressive stuff - and not just a placcy box with a PC fan and lightbulb glued inside it?

POST THEM HERE AND IMPRESS US ALL.

It's much softer than jerky - I'd go with soft and chewy, though you can get 'wet' or 'dry' depending on preference.
