Hey 005, just letting you know I discovered the image links were broken, so went and fixed them. Hope everyone is having a good time and enjoying the 005 chapter meet ups. Sorry I have been so distant after moving over to the east side. I really don't get into town to get on the internet much so it ...

I noticed a bunch of the image links were broken so I went back and fixed them, just wanted folks who might have visited and been disappointed that it is up and working now. I don't know how long the links were broken, no one let me know.

I generally always assume to be preparing for a shortage, news story or not. Thus I am always looking for the deals to increase my ammo stocks. Thankfully I had gotten to what I consider a minimal comfort level, so have just been adding to my stocks raising my supply above minimum here and there. An...

The r9 which this is built off of is priced at $250 on Amazon. I don't think you will have to worry about a $2K price. I am guessing more $300 range

OK that is just pure awesome that someone finally built one of these for commercial sale! :clap: Considering the price of the r9 isn't that high, the price pont for one of these likely isn't going to be too bad either. Now I have been out of touch being busy on my homestead, so hadn't even heard of ...

Hey thanks for giving me the tip on the tractor last night Halfapint. I have been going down the rabbit hole of internet searching the topic of turning them into atv's.

I liked some of the mods this guy did on his

Well the house build will take some time. I will be happy if I get all the posts and beams set this year. That alone will be a challenge to do in the time I will have to do it.

Awesome you guys are getting into it. I am visiting family, which is part of why I have suddenly become so much more active online having access to the internet in abundance here. But once I get home to my 40 acres, I will be scouting places to start working on bush shelters as well. Now I will be a...

The most effective thing being to not be there if possible etc... That is what my Tai Chi instructor used to say pretty much. He was very big on teaching how to avoid a fight, to not get into one by not being in the place to need to fight. As some would say, good operational awareness can keep you ...

Ok, I am not saying they are not. If I swap out parts on other cheaply made power tools I can get a better power tool. After the time and labor expense I am not sure what I am saving. Well according to the folks who make the recommendation, the swapping out the parts is not necessary it just brings...

Stercutus, yet as I mentioned folks who know saws well give favorable reviews of these. Saying swap out a literal handful of parts and they come in just under the name brand they are clones of. So the issue of quality is not so big an issue with these as one might think and expect. I was surprised h...

As was also mentioned in the other forum, a 90cc saw is a beast of a saw, you likely do not want to run a small blade on it. I agree, that video showing a small blade on such a powerful saw is not the way to go. Now about the bar for the saw in comparison to the ones in the video. I will be using a ...

Now something that came up right away in the other forum I posted this on is that I am looking to use a saw in a mill. So figure I will just give that response now. Yes I am planning to mill, which is why I am looking at such a big saw. Though the company does offer much smaller saws as well. I have...

I thought about adding this to the Echo vs. Husqvarna vs. Stihl thread https://www.zombiehunters.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=34&t=118556 but that hasn't been active since 2016, and well this is a totally different saw company. So figured worth a separate thread, but it might be worth folks taking a lo...

I went through a period of watching a TON of Filipino guys. The only one I still watch is the “Peimitive Skills” guy. Because I like that he actually tries to run a homestead. The “Primitive Technology” guy hasn’t been updating as much as he used to. Used to updated in the first week of the month, ...

I found this video last night and thought I would share it on this thread. It is a psych explanation why we like to watch the videos produced by Primitive Technology. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwOpp-4dHkw Of course the maker of this video assumes we are just the typical couch potato who doesn't...

My personal belief is that Shoalin Kung Fu may be the best school out there. Unfortunately it is not practical to learn since you have to become a monk and train for decades. Also the proof of it is limited as they do not conduct matches for sport. They train extensively in armed combat which most ...

Great find! And I just need to get back out a d building shelters. Even the primitive ones. I'm out of practice. These have for sure inspired me to do some of these sorts of big build bush shelters on my homestead property. I am hoping to start working on my house this spring, but doing some of the...

I added another channel I had missed, Primitive Life. It was too good of a channel to not have in the list above. He is working with a lot more permanence. Using stone work and primitive concrete. If they did a bunch of these projects on the same site, they could have a very impressively palatial es...

As my brother pointed out, these folks have resources we don't in these rain forests. From abundant vines for lashing, to choices of wood for poles, and so much more. However I still think the skills, inventiveness, and ingenuity demonstrated in these videos can hopefully inspire us to up our game f...

Hey folks, I have been busy working on my homestead and only have internet when I come into town. So I haven't been participating too much on the forum. I have been reading threads some, but just don't have the time to spend like I used to. I am visiting family and so have been catching up on the in...

there's lots more myths, like a ferrorod is better than a (quality) lighter. It aint, when you;'ve lost the use of one arm/hand, or when you dont have time or materials to make everything nice. You can drip a bit of fluid out of your Zippo and get a fire going under almost any conditions. :-) Like ...

Me I am in the neither/both category. By that I mean, I don't like hatchets or machete. Instead I am an axe and sword guy. A small axe I feel is much better that a hatchet. Hatchets are just too limited and you don't really save much in weight from a small axe to a a hatchet. The heads tend to be si...

Yep the paracord lure has been done a lot. There is a lot of videos on that topic. And yes it can work. I posted the video mainly due to it being a decent list of good all around lures. As mentioned saving space and weight is important for preppers. So a small batch of lures that work in most condit...
