One thing that many people do not think of is steaming your food. In a dire situation, you may not be able to acquire cooking oil or butter to cook with but instead of holding meat or fish over a fire or trying not to have any vegeables you may be able to grow turn to mush in boiling water, you can use a double boiler to steam. Additionally, you can use a small raised stainless steel rack in a frying pan or cook pot with a lid and steam without using cooking oil. A few minutes ago, I hard boiled two eggs with a steamer using only steam. Perfect Thinking out of the box is really the only way people are going to survive an apocalyptic world.
@Pepper-kw9ny no argument there = I will raise the level +10 and say a “Pressure Cooker” you can cook faster and use less fuel. Speaking of Fuel = attach copper tubing and make a still = pure water or other distilled elements 😜
I steam my food regularly. Start out with water with meat and as the water dissipates I start to add the oils as needed. It takes a lot of the grease out of meat. And I don't use as much oil because the meat is mostly cooked by the steam and the water.
Exactly! I've been saying the same thing for years. The latest thing I've started trying is heating my house by leaving the door open on the oven and leaving it on high in fanbake mode. My power bill is astronomical but I haven't had to use a heater all winter so there has to be savings in there somewhere..... surely.
sometimes you have to question if you're frying that lump of meat in its own fat or boiling it in its own/injected water. Personally i've managed to get rid of my cooker altogether, replaced with Ninja 15in1 and Ninja oven and a 9" standalone hob (perfect size for my Presto23). Potatoes/rice/pasta in water go in the bottom pan on the hob, veg in steam pans stacked on top, i use my eyeballs and common sense to avoid mushy vegetables

If your trash doesn't get picked up for two or three weeks, it will attract flies, roaches and ants. You can take and spritz a little WD-40 on your trash can and it will repel these. Don't use a lot because it's not great for the environment but the bugs hate the smell. You could use essential oils such as lemongrass or lavender oil but these tend to be way more expensive and break down much faster than WD-40. 👀🤞👀🤞👀🤞👀🤞

Don, something else to consider (theoretically) is using the Flex Seal to coat the interior of the ammo cans for insulation. I did that with a few of my cans to store electronics (used 3 coats of Flex Seal per can). I made sure to protect the rubber gasket on the lid with painters tape during the application of the Flex Seal.
@tennesseesentinel9994 I’m so old I used auto-body under coating to seal my powder magazines (required by city ordnance to have stored away from the residence)
Flexseal is vert thin, where the bedliner spray, is much thicker! Some Auto-body under coating can be petroleum based, and stays moist to keep its shape. Its messy! When it finally drys out, it will chip off.

Hey! New viewer here. You could make a quite nice soap with that vaseline and the baking soda, or white ash (that would be ideal), or even just a fistful of dirt. Oh, talking about dirt and soap, I mean, I know it sounds counterintuitive cleaning yourself with dirt, but I carry a water jug in my car; whenever I stop to do some small repair or put my spare tire, I clean my hands with dirt from the roadside and some water, it works great to scrub off grease, oils, fuel and rubber residues from the tires
The heavy trash bags can be used for so much! Line gallin buckets for potty, shelter, warming water, protective barrier from nuclear to get home, etc. Love them
I was at the store last night and I was looking at trash bags and couldn’t remember why I wanted them (I was in a hurry and I’m old so…)Thanks for reminding me!😂😂😂😂🙏
Please don’t use them for water or food. They leach nasty stuff into them and some have chemical treatments to discourage mold growth. I mean, life or death sure, but plan to have a better plan.
In the mid-1960s, Martin Denver heavily modified the Titan II ICBM Launch Silo. One of their mods was to replace the rubber weather seal around the Silo Door with one that contained 'Secret Stuff'. The original was covered with metal mesh, as was the new one. They both looked the same. I know because I was there. This implies that the rubber seal, on an Ammo Can, is an open door to an EMP Pulse........ Also, all outside lines leading into the Control Center were passed through 'Spark Gaps'. The Spark Gaps were mounted on a weavy metal plate, which was grounded to our extensive grounding system via heavy Braided Strapes. One of our daily inspection items was to verify no damage to these straps. Yes. EVERY DAY! HENCE: Cover your Ammo Can Weather Seal with Heavy Duty ALU Adhesive Backed Tape and GROUND THE BOX else say good by to your spare phone, tablet, etc.............
That's interesting I've been using ammo cans for over 30 years and they're wonderful I've always been mechanically inclined for you some for tool boxes you know sockets in one wrenches in another never thought about using them for a faraday cage
Storing cigarettes/cigars in the freezer preserves the tobacco & the flavor. I quit 3 weeks ago, putting that $$ towards better things. Just FYI if you do want to store it

Just for one instance speaking on zip ties they're good to have in your vehicle And also in your bag . I had a windshield wiper blade broke from the cold The clip that holds it on to the metal arm was scratching my windshield and I really needed windshield wipers at that moment and had to go to work And couldn't stop to get new windshield wipers because it was early And nowhere was open So I simply used a zip tie to hold my windshield wiper on with temporarily work fun in fact it seemed more sturdyier than with the clip lol
They work a treat.... almost everything in or on my car is held together with either zip ties, duct tape or gorilla glue. I don't know why they just don't make it like that at the factory to be honest.

Listen to this, I used to work for many years, as a maintenance worker in huge facility. My job, was always outdoors, either near a huge long beach, or on fields full of grass and wild life. When the elements of nature gone wild, only piece of gear I had to survive, was those black drum bags, that I used a ton of them every single day. What the survival instructors usually demonstrate, on how to use them to survive, is exactly what I was doing ,to survive bad weather. The closest building to me, was very far and in the same time, I had to stay out, because that's where my work was, Imagine my surprise, when I watched all those survival lessons, where all instructors, advised people to do, what all those years, I thought was ashamed of doing, putting a garbage bag as a raincoat...It can work to collect wild edibles, plants or mushroom etc, as also as a poncho. It has so many uses and it's super easy to carry one or 2 or even more. Versatility is your friend in the outdoors. Don't go for big heavy tools, go as lightweight as possible and always choose versatile gear. Do not fall into the marketing traps. You do not need Magnacut to survive. actually that and any other hard steel, is the last steel you want, in a long term survival scenario.
Incorrect. Do NOT use things not rated for food, for food. Many trash bags have anti mold gunk on them. ask.usda.gov/s/article/Can-I-cook-or-store-foods-in-a-trash-bag#:~:text=No.,be%20absorbed%20into%20the%20food.
I've been following you for years but this is the first time in as long as I can remember that your video showed up in my subscriber feed. Good to see you and good video.
@@Ravenspell3 HARD to believe but in Rockford, IL people actually try to sell "stuff" in yard sales for more than you would pay for new! I don't waste my time--- ESTATE sales here have the best deals FOR the most part--- and 50% off on SAT.
It depends on what area you live in that is true. Stuff is pretty cheap and Southern Illinois. Every time the local goodwill raises their prices people stop buying it and it will sit on the shelf. I picked up some great items at the local lions annual townwide auction yard sales vendor show this past weekend. $219 tactical boots for 3 bucks. Kitty little buckets for a dollar. Comforters for $2. Tactical rubber rain boots for 10 bucks which I really needed. Another time I picked up a World War II vintage knife for 15 bucks. The bargains are there but maybe not so many in Rockford unfortunately.
Yes on the big heavyweight trash bags, they are always needed. Coconut oil works with Q-tips and you can add it to your coffee just like butter. It neutralizes acid on the teeth. So many uses for baking soda.
WRT long term storing dry dog/cat food - I don’t know the particulars, but my understanding is that botulism is an issue when vacuum sealing anything with too much sugar or fat. Botulism can survive an anaerobic environment and can thrive in fatty and sugary substances.
I rotate my pet food. Oldest is used first. I keep 2 to 3 months worth at a time for dry food. I do use rice vegs and fats to stretch my pupbois kibble. Cats have 3 months of food,meds,and litter. Dog has 2 months worth right now.
When carrying cutting tools...go light weight, you would be better served to have a good bow ( Rip- saw) then a hatchet, Axe...with very few exceptions...the more energy you use to cut the more calories you burn ...axes need more frequent sharpening then ...saws and machetes....
Thank you for the valuable info👍 Just a random tidbit re: wound closures. If you cut yourself in the ocean you shouldn't close it if possible because of the bacteria. My teen cut her foot on an oyster here at the (filthy) marina in the Gulf. I cleaned it up very well on site, put on antibiotic cream and a loose gauze dressing and took her to the ER for antibiotics (necessary!). The Dr came in, looked at it and said OH good, they already cleaned it! I told him I had cleaned it not the nurse lol. It was full of black muck sand when it happened so it took a bit of cleaning. He said it looked great. They recleaned it with a pack of those wipes you showed, rewrapped it like I had and gave us a script. It healed quite well. Was a 4" long slice in the heel from bottom to ankle. Didn't bleed much because of the location.
Years ago I had brand new engine connecting rods. I put in Ziploc bags with coffee filters in WD-40 on the rods. Quite some time later the Rod's head surface rust. Luckily it was not on the rod journals. WD-40 Willow road and rust metal. It's water and oil or some kind of corrosive liquid and oil. WD-40 is excellent for House locks and ignition locks. You just have to constantly apply after a while. I know soak engine parts in oil with coffee filters and Ziploc bags.
An EMP, potent enough, will burn up Chips and/or circuit boards (they go together). Anything with a board or chip in it will probably get fried. Rechargeable batteries, solar panel with regulator build into it. The big problem with an EMP is predicting how much, when, and where it will take place.
Missed live but I will add ideas as I have them like you can make baking powder with baking soda the ratio is one part baking soda to two parts cream of tartar
The most important item/implement you'd want in a survival situation, if you could pick only one, would be a knife for protection. With a knife you can do a myriad of thing's such as fashim a spear for protection from predators, make various trap's, use it to cut up fish and animal's you'll eat, make a shelter, et cetera. A plastic bag isn't the choice here.
93 octane non ethanol gasoline is often available at gas stations that service a large boating area. Unfortunately non ethanol is only sold in low population density towns.
The faraday bags are an interesting cheap purchase possiblity. Always have a roll of cheapy Duck Tape, and a cheap multi tool in your pocket. Maybe a swiss Army knife with a few hacks or add on like a sewing needle and thread or a simple pin.
Zip ties will break down in the sun because they're made of vinyl. It takes about a year or two but they do eventually break down if you put them in direct sunlight they'll break down within a year within six months actually.
Ask for nuclear weapons being used we've discovered that we only need a few. Yes we have mass produce. We have thousands of them on hand. But the completely crippled the entire globe would only take six nuclear weapons. They would be detonated between twenty and thirty thousand feet in the atmosphere so we wouldn't see a bright flash of light unless it was at night.
That is true but I've found some exceptions with the old field jackets with the button in liners for winter time clothing, and all of my BDUs that I buy that RothCo mostly made have withstood my everyday use lol I use 50 cal ammo cans for tool boxes for my sockets and drivers in one and my wrenches and pliers in another
Tractor supply sells propane in liquid form, and $14 for a 20lb tank, is a home run. We also refill our 1 pound tanks from the older 20lb tank. Upside down with an approved device.
The trash bag, I'd take 2 double them up cut 3 holes bind the to bags with gorilla take or Trex tape and use it as a poncho. I plan on walking from Indiana to Arizona come March and I'm glad I saw this video
The US did EMP testing over the Johnson Atoll in the early ‘60s’….look that up! There was not as much infrastructure that could be affected back then as it would today. It did affect Japan & some of the Alaska islands.

If your trash doesn't get picked up for two or three weeks, flies, roaches and ants will show up. You can spritz a little WD-40 on your trash can and it will repel these.

Love your videos and I’ve learned a lot but I do think there’s some info your giving on EMP and faraday protection that’s not correct. The emp doc has great informative videos and tests out all types of faraday products and diy stuff. He’d be a great guest also!
There's a lot items that are available to choose from to your needs. Dollar store reading glasses, Hook and Loop roll 1inch and 1/2, twine, single use cyanacrylate (wounds, quick fix items), sharpened rebar to make quick ground rods for the faraday bags/cages and spears, portable AM/FM/SW/NOAA radio, bag of 1/4 inch washers (make shift eyelets) including "fender" size". For that matter 1/4-20 hardware (quasi-common size cameras, tripod mounts) along with 7/16 wrenches.....forget about 3/8 hardware because if you think you loose a lot of 10mm wrenches now..........
Baking soda does help with heartburn but chewing gum also does a great job to settle down the acid in the stomach. As we get older our bodies change and I find that I have more stomach upset. When I worked I used to chew gum all day long. When I retired, I chewed less and I found my stomach was getting upset every day. I started chewing gum again, and OH MY! Stomach acid seemed to settle down. I'm not saying it was miraculous but I sure felt better. Also, speaking of those iodine pills. If you have a thyroid condition I read that you might be better off not taking those pills. I have not been able to subtantiate that but if anyone on here is medical and knows, please share. I'd appreciate that so much!
Barter items! Cigarettes, dip, alcohol, condoms, etc will be highly sought after. People will still think they “need” nicotine, alcohol, drugs, sex when all goes awry.
I never knew how dental problems could be so detrimental until recently. I had to get a tooth pulled and i kept thinking how bad it could have been in a shtf situation luckily i keep a lot of antibiotics around but theres only so much that will do and you dont want to overdo antibiotics.
If I had to choose one thing to bring with me into the woods, I think it would be a big cast iron pot or kettle. I assume I do at least have the clothes on my back, so some protection from the elements present. I can make cordage. With that I can make shelter and a bow drill. I can even improvise a crude cutting edge, but I can't make a watertight container that will withstand the heat of an open flame. With time and resourcefulness I could perhaps make some kind of container that would allow me to use the hot rock method of boiling water, but it'd be a lot easier if I just had a pot. I could also, with time, break the end of the handle off and forge it into a small knife, and at that point I'm on my way to modernity.
Not all zip ties are impervious to the elements. Ask me how I know. Make sure you buy the good kind that is suited for surviving the elements. I had some cheap ones that I tried to use on a chicken coop, and the sun damaged them as well as a cheap tarp. There are times when it pays to buy quality. 😊
Faraday Cage (specific for EMP) Grounding Question "For a "six sided shielding box" (faraday cage for equipment not in use).... "you need a very low inductance to ground. This is desirable for HEMP and IEMI. Ground rods have high inductance, and while necessary for lightning, are of limited help against high frequency transient phenomena". `DHS-CISA EMP protection and resilience guide, Version 2.2 - 5 February 2019 unclassified.` it also refences the various mil-spec standards.
Could you explain something for me. I’ve always heard than when there’s a nuclear explosion then the trees and grass takes a long time to grow back out to green. It kills everything around it. Why didn’t it do that when we boomed Japan? If you look at pictures of those towns now they are real green and people have built back homes and businesses there. Were that not afraid of the fall out?
QUESTION: I unfortunately don’t have access to those ammo boxes because I live in Mexico (I am an archaeologist, 43 yrs. now). I was wondering if it would be practical, providing you could get some, to glue something like felt all over the inside so that you could throw all kinds of stuff in there but nothing would actually touch the metal. My homemade faraday cages are so small, I wish I had something bigger. I could have a metalergist make one down here and the expense isn’t bad. I know that you are ridiculously busy, but if you have any suggestions about something like this, please throw them my way. What is the best metal to use to make a larger box, and is there anything I could line the inside with so that I don’t have to worry about putting each individual apparatus inside something else before I put it in the box? We also have a craft thing called Fomi (like foamy), and it is sort of like a sponge but very thin. I know they have it in the US but I don’t know what it is called there. Maybe it’s a bad idea all around, but if you could give me a hint, it would make my day! I have been a prepper practically all my life because of my job, but I still always enjoy and learn from your videos.
There should be plenty of ammo boxes down your way. No need for felt, just wrap everything up in a pair of undies. Take them off first of course or you might get some funny looks when you go down to Taco Bell for lunch. The Fibre in undies is designed to handle nuclear force farts and unexpected boners so its like gorilla glue, it's one of the most durable substances known to man. Bury your ammo boxes when you're done but mark it so you can find it again.
Metal cookie cans, small metal buckets, cardboard box covered with tin foil make faraday cages. Two things, put an insulating layer inside the can so items don’t touch the metal, two test the faraday cage with a cell phone. If you can call the phone using cellular or WiFi, it’s not working. Don’t forget to label the can if you have more than one ha ha
A great tip. There are many different qualities that those bags come. The thicker usually is better, however, I 've worked with thinner bags, that were a lot stronger and durable, than some way thicker but poorly made bags. As we speak, I've found a no name roll, that has the toughest and strongest bags I've ever seen, however they are thin and lightweight!! If you want stealth, go for black, if you want to be found, go for Blue. Blue is one of the colors, that stands out way more than orange, in the outdoors. Trust me,,, that's true.
petroleum jelly mixed with dryer lint is a great fire starter WD40 is another good fire starter. baking soda is good for upset stomach to. zip ties have many uses but remember they are not UV resistant they become brittle and break.
If you live in the south a tub of petroleum jelly, and a banjo is enough to keep most criminals away, because they will certainly question what will happen to them if they fail lol
Dryer lint is great for starting fires. We carry it in plastic prescription bottles on our snowmobiles with waterproof matches.

Coconut oil is great for brushing your teeth.. it is anti bacterial, anti viral and anti fungal.... it is good for cooking and for body butter, etc.
Rinse your mouth after brushing to dislodge any particulate remaining and then take one teaspoon of the oil and swish, keeping in your mouth for at least 15 minutes.

Everyone on the planet should own the Encyclopedia of Country Living. I don’t care if you live in NYC.

@ Carla Emery
Excellent resource! Everyone should read the JamesWesley Rawles series too!😊
In the mid-1960s, Martin Denver heavily modified the Titan II ICBM Launch Silo.
One of their mods was to replace the rubber weather seal around the Silo Door with one that contained 'Secret Stuff'.
The original was covered with metal mesh, as was the new one. They both looked the same.
I know because I was there.
This implies that the rubber seal, on an Ammo Can, is an open door to an EMP Pulse........
Also, all outside lines leading into the Control Center were passed through 'Spark Gaps'. The Spark Gaps were mounted on a weavy metal plate, which was grounded to our extensive grounding system via heavy Braided Strapes. One of our daily inspection items was to verify no damage to these straps.
Yes. EVERY DAY!
HENCE: Cover your Ammo Can Weather Seal with Heavy Duty ALU Adhesive Backed Tape and GROUND THE BOX else say good by to your spare phone, tablet, etc.............
Nothing wrong with pre rapping in heavy-duty aluminum foil the old-fashioned way BEFORE you toss things in your Faraday bag
Yes, because the government has never over built something. And they know everything! Just saying!
As far as booze goes keep lots of smaller bottles for barter but what u plan to use yourself save a few dollars and get the bigger ones
Buy it by the pallet, that's what I do. It needs to be tested regularly though... just to be sure it's still safe to drink.
@@TravellinOn2010 That's hilarious, but hopefully most know that it never goes bad😜
@@455buick6 it's not worth taking the risk buddy, you should be sampling at least a couple of cases per week just to be sure!
That's interesting I've been using ammo cans for over 30 years and they're wonderful I've always been mechanically inclined for you some for tool boxes you know sockets in one wrenches in another never thought about using them for a faraday cage
You're a good guy Sootch. Thanks for sharing all your knowledge.
Storing cigarettes/cigars in the freezer preserves the tobacco & the flavor. I quit 3 weeks ago, putting that $$ towards better things. Just FYI if you do want to store it
I don’t smoke but I’m stocking up on them as a barter it.

@@percisionshot4331 Quite an expensive exchange “piece” of a cigarette. For Canada for sure!
ALWAYS ask before taking pallets. Some pallets are reusable, and folks can get VERY upset/angry when those get taken.
Some people buy and sell used pallets.some places have things shipped in on pallets but they don't ship anything out on pallets so they have pallets and don't need them. And some places ship stuff out on pallets but they don't have any so they need to buy them.
THE TIME IS NOW IF YOU HAVEN'T BEFORE YOU NEED TO START NOW!!!! HARDCORE AND DON'T TELL NOBODY AT ALL NOT EVEN FAMILY BECAUSE EVERYONE HAS A BEST FRIEND THAT'S GOTTA BEST FRIEND!!, SO BEWARE AND KEEP YOUR PREPS UNDER GUARD ESPECIALLY SINCE THESE DAYS ARE GETTING WORSE!!!!!
Some folks are proud about their stashes and tell. Big mistake!! Keep it to yourself.
Sad facts
You got 3 kids crying from hunger, even some preacher down the street is a liability!
I agree.my own family has stole from me.
Just for one instance speaking on zip ties they're good to have in your vehicle And also in your bag . I had a windshield wiper blade broke from the cold The clip that holds it on to the metal arm was scratching my windshield and I really needed windshield wipers at that moment and had to go to work And couldn't stop to get new windshield wipers because it was early And nowhere was open So I simply used a zip tie to hold my windshield wiper on with temporarily work fun in fact it seemed more sturdyier than with the clip lol
They work a treat.... almost everything in or on my car is held together with either zip ties, duct tape or gorilla glue. I don't know why they just don't make it like that at the factory to be honest.
@@TravellinOn2010 I only used it until I could get to the store to get a new one after work. Dang Is your car must Look like Mr. Magoo's mobile🤣
@@tennesseelockpicking8803 it's a hum dinger buddy.... I don't have to lock it.... no one's gunna steal it. I don't have keys for it anyway....it starts just fine with a screw driver.

I've had a few vehicles like that lol
Experience (...in just about anything)
Learn using the best methods.
Do what you have to do.
Get what you really need.
Avoid all the mistakes and junk.
Save yourself a lot of time, effort and money.
Make it better than when you started.
That's what makes the future.
Listen to this, I used to work for many years, as a maintenance worker in huge facility. My job, was always outdoors, either near a huge long beach, or on fields full of grass and wild life. When the elements of nature gone wild, only piece of gear I had to survive, was those black drum bags, that I used a ton of them every single day. What the survival instructors usually demonstrate, on how to use them to survive, is exactly what I was doing ,to survive bad weather. The closest building to me, was very far and in the same time, I had to stay out, because that's where my work was,
Imagine my surprise, when I watched all those survival lessons, where all instructors, advised people to do, what all those years, I thought was ashamed of doing, putting a garbage bag as a raincoat...It can work to collect wild edibles, plants or mushroom etc, as also as a poncho. It has so many uses and it's super easy to carry one or 2 or even more. Versatility is your friend in the outdoors. Don't go for big heavy tools, go as lightweight as possible and always choose versatile gear. Do not fall into the marketing traps. You do not need Magnacut to survive. actually that and any other hard steel, is the last steel you want, in a long term survival scenario.
Incorrect. Do NOT use things not rated for food, for food.
Many trash bags have anti mold gunk on them.

Seriously good stuff. Fresh crawfish covered in whiskey for a day or week. Then boiled and served with rice or other grain.
Solar winds are much like radio waves of different frequencies and intensity.
I've been following you for years but this is the first time in as long as I can remember that your video showed up in my subscriber feed. Good to see you and good video.
Silicone and paint thinner makes an incredible waterproofing solution! It takes some work to mix it properly, but it's well worth it. Look it up!
Estate sales are great for everything!
Also look for listings of townwide yard sales in your area you can pick up some great prep items at discounted rates.
@@Ravenspell3 HARD to believe but in Rockford, IL people actually try to sell "stuff" in yard sales for more than you would pay for new!
I don't waste my time--- ESTATE sales here have the best deals FOR the most part--- and 50% off on SAT.
It depends on what area you live in that is true. Stuff is pretty cheap and Southern Illinois. Every time the local goodwill raises their prices people stop buying it and it will sit on the shelf. I picked up some great items at the local lions annual townwide auction yard sales vendor show this past weekend.
$219 tactical boots for 3 bucks. Kitty little buckets for a dollar. Comforters for $2. Tactical rubber rain boots for 10 bucks which I really needed.
Another time I picked up a World War II vintage knife for 15 bucks. The bargains are there but maybe not so many in Rockford unfortunately.
Yes on the big heavyweight trash bags, they are always needed. Coconut oil works with Q-tips and you can add it to your coffee just like butter. It neutralizes acid on the teeth. So many uses for baking soda.
WRT long term storing dry dog/cat food - I don’t know the particulars, but my understanding is that botulism is an issue when vacuum sealing anything with too much sugar or fat. Botulism can survive an anaerobic environment and can thrive in fatty and sugary substances.
I rotate my pet food. Oldest is used first. I keep 2 to 3 months worth at a time for dry food. I do use rice vegs and fats to stretch my pupbois kibble. Cats have 3 months of food,meds,and litter. Dog has 2 months worth right now.
Pallets, in Seattle someone built a "house" under an overpass.
For gas and fuel storage PRI-D and PRI-G are the best you can buy. This Diesel supplement is used by Hospitals in their generator fuel
When carrying cutting tools...go light weight, you would be better served to have a good bow
( Rip- saw) then a hatchet, Axe...with very few exceptions...the more energy you use to cut the more calories you burn ...axes need more frequent sharpening then ...saws and machetes....
Thank you for the valuable info👍 Just a random tidbit re: wound closures. If you cut yourself in the ocean you shouldn't close it if possible because of the bacteria. My teen cut her foot on an oyster here at the (filthy) marina in the Gulf. I cleaned it up very well on site, put on antibiotic cream and a loose gauze dressing and took her to the ER for antibiotics (necessary!). The Dr came in, looked at it and said OH good, they already cleaned it! I told him I had cleaned it not the nurse lol. It was full of black muck sand when it happened so it took a bit of cleaning. He said it looked great. They recleaned it with a pack of those wipes you showed, rewrapped it like I had and gave us a script. It healed quite well. Was a 4" long slice in the heel from bottom to ankle. Didn't bleed much because of the location.
Lesson learned, always wear shoes in water that isn't a pool, you can't see, glass, metal, sharp rocks, or whatever, protect your feet
@455 Buick Valid point!
Say what you want about Harbor Freight, but for stuff we’re looking for they have it!! I like going in there.
Yeah but Leroy is a real A hole. When he's on holiday it's a pleasure to go there.
Beware of quality issues though. Many items are from China or other countries think hand tools that do notice our measurement system and will not WORK
Years ago I had brand new engine connecting rods. I put in Ziploc bags with coffee filters in WD-40 on the rods. Quite some time later the Rod's head surface rust. Luckily it was not on the rod journals. WD-40 Willow road and rust metal. It's water and oil or some kind of corrosive liquid and oil. WD-40 is excellent for House locks and ignition locks. You just have to constantly apply after a while. I know soak engine parts in oil with coffee filters and Ziploc bags.
An EMP, potent enough, will burn up Chips and/or circuit boards (they go together). Anything with a board or chip in it will probably get fried. Rechargeable batteries, solar panel with regulator build into it. The big problem with an EMP is predicting how much, when, and where it will take place.
Wait, my solar panels won’t work? 😬
Taking the paracord strands out, you can also use an individual strand as a makeshift stitches. It will hurt like hell, but will sew you up.
Missed live but I will add ideas as I have them like you can make baking powder with baking soda the ratio is one part baking soda to two parts cream of tartar
Buy gallon WD-40.... Get a squeeze sprayer to apply.👍
The most important item/implement you'd want in a survival situation, if you could pick only one, would be a knife for protection. With a knife you can do a myriad of thing's such as fashim a spear for protection from predators, make various trap's, use it to cut up fish and animal's you'll eat, make a shelter, et cetera. A plastic bag isn't the choice here.
93 octane non ethanol gasoline is often available at gas stations that service a large boating area.
Unfortunately non ethanol is only sold in low population density towns.
So, 90% of America! Yeah!
We love the flex seal products and bought a lot for prepping. Many uses.
The faraday bags are an interesting cheap purchase possiblity. Always have a roll of cheapy Duck Tape, and a cheap multi tool in your pocket. Maybe a swiss Army knife with a few hacks or add on like a sewing needle and thread or a simple pin.
Zip ties will break down in the sun because they're made of vinyl. It takes about a year or two but they do eventually break down if you put them in direct sunlight they'll break down within a year within six months actually.
Ask for nuclear weapons being used we've discovered that we only need a few. Yes we have mass produce. We have thousands of them on hand. But the completely crippled the entire globe would only take six nuclear weapons. They would be detonated between twenty and thirty thousand feet in the atmosphere so we wouldn't see a bright flash of light unless it was at night.
Some are UV-resistant, but still must be inspected periodically and replaced.
What do you suggest, maybe paracord?
You can make cordage from long roots like pine trees
@@magni1308 whatever you can get.
Contractor bags are great, also useful for fording rivers in a pinch. However no way in hell I would choose that as my 1 item over a knife :/
Military equipement is not necessarily the best thing. Don't forget that "military-grade" means "lowest-bidder".
On many things but requirements to meet certain standard. In some things that is a very low level.
That is true but I've found some exceptions with the old field jackets with the button in liners for winter time clothing, and all of my BDUs that I buy that RothCo mostly made have withstood my everyday use lol I use 50 cal ammo cans for tool boxes for my sockets and drivers in one and my wrenches and pliers in another
Pallets are good to have on hand to be able to board up your windows and seal in or add extra fortification in an extreme shtf
I remember buying 1 gallon cans of WD-40 and Marvel Mystery Oil.
That's what I was going to recommend.
Great practical episode. I have regular intel up on YT. Keep prepping guys 👍 🙏 ✝️
Thanks Brother!
Shatsy! ❤
Tin cans full of metal screws etc.. strung around make a pretty good alarm system.
Batteries DO NOT have to be protected against EMP. The wires leading to them will pick up the field but will endanger the load and not the Batteries.
Epson salt can be used for all kinds of stuff
Tractor supply sells propane in liquid form, and $14 for a 20lb tank, is a home run. We also refill our 1 pound tanks from the older 20lb tank. Upside down with an approved device.
The trash bag, I'd take 2 double them up cut 3 holes bind the to bags with gorilla take or Trex tape and use it as a poncho. I plan on walking from Indiana to Arizona come March and I'm glad I saw this video
Walmart has 550 paracord for $4.84 for 50 ft
It’s not true 550 cord.
The US did EMP testing over the Johnson Atoll in the early ‘60s’….look that up! There was not as much infrastructure that could be affected back then as it would today. It did affect Japan & some of the Alaska islands.

In Arizona, zip ties dont last. The UV breaks them down in one summer. I think region plays a role. I might use a roll of duct tape over zip ties. Great video, made me think. Thanks.

thankyou everyone for giving good ideas
Don, keep the great info coming!
In high school I repaired my cowboy boots with duct tape! I had to save up money from my part time working and buy a lot of my clothes and things I wanted. You get a new pair as you can afford it.
Bought some canvas approns at Walmart for $1.30 & turned them into bandoliers to hold ammo or other important items .
If your trash doesn't get picked up for two or three weeks, flies, roaches and ants will show up.
You can spritz a little WD-40 on your trash can and it will repel these.
Don't use a lot because it's not great for the environment, but the bugs hate it.
Another option is essential oils like lemongrass, clove or lavender but these are way more expensive and break down much faster.
👀🙏🏻👀🙏🏻👀🙏🏻👀🙏🏻
Love your videos and I’ve learned a lot but I do think there’s some info your giving on EMP and faraday protection that’s not correct. The emp doc has great informative videos and tests out all types of faraday products and diy stuff. He’d be a great guest also!
October 4th 1986 we had very bad snow storms and I heated my home with pellets 😊
All help of free palette break shaped lumber and all that saved me a lot of money
What about spraying the inside of your ammo can with Flex Seal for a faraday cage solution?
There's a lot items that are available to choose from to your needs. Dollar store reading glasses, Hook and Loop roll 1inch and 1/2, twine, single use cyanacrylate (wounds, quick fix items), sharpened rebar to make quick ground rods for the faraday bags/cages and spears, portable AM/FM/SW/NOAA radio, bag of 1/4 inch washers (make shift eyelets) including "fender" size". For that matter 1/4-20 hardware (quasi-common size cameras, tripod mounts) along with 7/16 wrenches.....forget about 3/8 hardware because if you think you loose a lot of 10mm wrenches now..........
I love your Channel and I've watched almost every video you have and you as you have helped me so much thank you for what you do!!!
Baking soda does help with heartburn but chewing gum also does a great job to settle down the acid in the stomach. As we get older our bodies change and I find that I have more stomach upset. When I worked I used to chew gum all day long. When I retired, I chewed less and I found my stomach was getting upset every day. I started chewing gum again, and OH MY! Stomach acid seemed to settle down. I'm not saying it was miraculous but I sure felt better. Also, speaking of those iodine pills. If you have a thyroid condition I read that you might be better off not taking those pills. I have not been able to subtantiate that but if anyone on here is medical and knows, please share. I'd appreciate that so much!
What about JB Weld? Lots of possible uses. I love the duct tape idea. I use it TONS.
Baking soda n white vinegar
Cleana drain pupes and toilets of smell and mold
And to put out fires
You can’t put everything in a one hour video, but vinegar should be on everyone’s list.
Don, when are you writing a book, on prepping & survival? Because I think many of us, would buy it, just to have on the shelf, when the SHTF!
In my EDC and Bug out Bag I keep a Sillcock key, a very useful item.
Barter items! Cigarettes, dip, alcohol, condoms, etc will be highly sought after. People will still think they “need” nicotine, alcohol, drugs, sex when all goes awry.
I never knew how dental problems could be so detrimental until recently. I had to get a tooth pulled and i kept thinking how bad it could have been in a shtf situation luckily i keep a lot of antibiotics around but theres only so much that will do and you dont want to overdo antibiotics.
Clove oil is also good for tooth pain as well as spilanthes plants. I'm planning on getting some seeds to plant that in the yard next Spring.
If I had to choose one thing to bring with me into the woods, I think it would be a big cast iron pot or kettle. I assume I do at least have the clothes on my back, so some protection from the elements present. I can make cordage. With that I can make shelter and a bow drill. I can even improvise a crude cutting edge, but I can't make a watertight container that will withstand the heat of an open flame. With time and resourcefulness I could perhaps make some kind of container that would allow me to use the hot rock method of boiling water, but it'd be a lot easier if I just had a pot. I could also, with time, break the end of the handle off and forge it into a small knife, and at that point I'm on my way to modernity.
Canadian Prepper has a great video about geiger counters, what to look for, what some can and can’t detect.
Not all zip ties are impervious to the elements. Ask me how I know. Make sure you buy the good kind that is suited for surviving the elements. I had some cheap ones that I tried to use on a chicken coop, and the sun damaged them as well as a cheap tarp. There are times when it pays to buy quality. 😊
Duct tape and compactor bags to seal the windows and doors from fallout.
Faraday Cage (specific for EMP) Grounding Question "For a "six sided shielding box" (faraday cage for equipment not in use).... "you need a very low inductance to ground. This is desirable for HEMP and IEMI. Ground rods have high inductance, and while necessary for lightning, are of limited help against high frequency transient phenomena". `DHS-CISA EMP protection and resilience guide, Version 2.2 - 5 February 2019 unclassified.` it also refences the various mil-spec standards.
I remembered a joke - if you are afraid of gaining weight, drink 50 grams of cognac before meals and the fear will go away.
Could you explain something for me. I’ve always heard than when there’s a nuclear explosion then the trees and grass takes a long time to grow back out to green. It kills everything around it. Why didn’t it do that when we boomed Japan? If you look at pictures of those towns now they are real green and people have built back homes and businesses there. Were that not afraid of the fall out?
As for the tin can stove, add a some metal tube and a battery powered mattress inflator. Super charged.
QUESTION: I unfortunately don’t have access to those ammo boxes because I live in Mexico (I am an archaeologist, 43 yrs. now). I was wondering if it would be practical, providing you could get some, to glue something like felt all over the inside so that you could throw all kinds of stuff in there but nothing would actually touch the metal. My homemade faraday cages are so small, I wish I had something bigger. I could have a metalergist make one down here and the expense isn’t bad. I know that you are ridiculously busy, but if you have any suggestions about something like this, please throw them my way. What is the best metal to use to make a larger box, and is there anything I could line the inside with so that I don’t have to worry about putting each individual apparatus inside something else before I put it in the box? We also have a craft thing called Fomi (like foamy), and it is sort of like a sponge but very thin. I know they have it in the US but I don’t know what it is called there. Maybe it’s a bad idea all around, but if you could give me a hint, it would make my day! I have been a prepper practically all my life because of my job, but I still always enjoy and learn from your videos.
There should be plenty of ammo boxes down your way. No need for felt, just wrap everything up in a pair of undies. Take them off first of course or you might get some funny looks when you go down to Taco Bell for lunch. The Fibre in undies is designed to handle nuclear force farts and unexpected boners so its like gorilla glue, it's one of the most durable substances known to man. Bury your ammo boxes when you're done but mark it so you can find it again.
A metal trash can lined with cardboard on lid too works as a faraday cage
Scotties Tech Info explains home made faraday boxes
Metal cookie cans, small metal buckets, cardboard box covered with tin foil make faraday cages. Two things, put an insulating layer inside the can so items don’t touch the metal, two test the faraday cage with a cell phone. If you can call the phone using cellular or WiFi, it’s not working. Don’t forget to label the can if you have more than one ha ha
Tin cans do come in handy!
A great tip. There are many different qualities that those bags come. The thicker usually is better, however, I 've worked with thinner bags, that were a lot stronger and durable, than some way thicker but poorly made bags. As we speak, I've found a no name roll, that has the toughest and strongest bags I've ever seen, however they are thin and lightweight!! If you want stealth, go for black, if you want to be found, go for Blue. Blue is one of the colors, that stands out way more than orange, in the outdoors. Trust me,,, that's true.
petroleum jelly mixed with dryer lint is a great fire starter WD40 is another good fire starter. baking soda is good for upset stomach to. zip ties have many uses but remember they are not UV resistant they become brittle and break.
Mylar balloons may help with emp also(much cheaper and larger than food grade bags).
Wd-40 is food safe also
My WD-40 can says harmful or fatal if swallowed!
@@davidglazener7921 the nsf has designated it as food safe. There is also a food specific version.
I don’t think so Frank
I have heard on other channels that mylar alone isn't dependable against EMP.
If you live in the south a tub of petroleum jelly, and a banjo is enough to keep most criminals away, because they will certainly question what will happen to them if they fail lol
😆 funny
