A porte tache, or flask carrier, was a strap designed to carry a powder flask and a bullet pouch, and sometimes a spanner for wheel locks. Normally this strap was attached to the waist belt on the right side and hung straight down. It was most popular during the late years of the sixteenth century and the opening years of the seventeenth. 1, record 1, English, - porte%20tache

Il y eut, dans le domaine des munitions et de l'équipement, d'autres progrès, intimement liés à l'apparition de la platine à rouet. (...) Dans certains cas, la manivelle était montée sur la poire à poudre elle-même (...) Une courroie, appelée "portetache", devint d'un emploi généralisé; elle se boutonnait autour de la ceinture et pendait à la droite du tireur; tout le long se trouvaient des crochets, des poches et des agrafes pour y accrocher le sac à balles, la manivelle et la poire à poudre, de façon à en faciliter le port. 1, record 1, French, - portetache

The size of the trees felled by a feller-buncher in deep snow is limited to about 20 inches (51 cm), since larger sizes would call for a very heavy base vehicle, and this kind of vehicle would be difficult to move in the snow (D.W. Myhrman, Tree-Falling in Snow, January 1978, p. 10). 1, record 2, English, - carrier
