Thread: First aid bag

Hey folks got one of these a while ago https://touch.trademe.co.nz/listing/view/1230333995

Awesome bag that you can just keep stuffing with bits and pieces, problem being a St John vollie your own kit grows....

Wondering if anyone has something similar but made of better material to throw tools in, leather an does a lot but there are limits be nice to have a similar sized bag to put the extras in I.e. Drill batteries, drivers drill bits, Crescent files etc. Would probably line/pad the inside of it.

What do you folks use? Don't want a 'tool box' as haven't d they take up touch space when you only have a small car!

He other thing that I would find handy is having Molle webbing on the inside of the pack so you can compartmentalise thing in pouches but not have them sticking outside and getting caught on things

Ordered a bucket tool bag for a plumber at work, bag fits in a bucket with pockets etc for your tools. Might be worth looking at,

I got a shower roll off Torpedo 7, undo the clip and roll it out with all the pockets for ya tourniquets, Israeli army bandages and whatnot

It travels with me and has proven very useful but mainly for curing hangovers

Got the first aid well sorted, b.p. Cuff tucked away with penlight thermo and blood glucose. They all need there own safe and secure spot in the elastic so I don't break the damn things!

Was looking at first aid kits the other day for work.
After two and a half years of working all over Africa was VERY disappointed that none of the first aid kits had latex gloves!
You alone get AIDS once.
Also how dirty are your hands when you go to treat yourselves our your patient?
Is it really tat hard for them to add a pair of gloves to keep you and your patient safe?

Always have a few pairs in every bag/pack often wear them emptying an animal out if there's no water around to rinse the blood off.

My point was more that they should come as standard in all first aid kits.
I think that Tussock had a post on here about first aid kits
