It would be a waste of $3, but that would be the best book review I've seen

"It's sh**, don't waste your money" then the rest of the time is spent making confetti

I'm getting a 'wannabe' feel from reading the blurb.

almost like its a wannabe prepper writing a book for other wannabe preppers.

so, when will the official ZS review come out

I am adding a few additional items to my repair kit. - zipties - basic first aid supplies (combine pad, bandage, band aids) crammed into my handlebars - cash (about $50 in small denominations) stashed away for a taxi home (if something major breaks) I also wear fingerless gloves to protect my palms ...

actually had something similar last night. we had a suprising amount of rain fall, leading to some local flooding.

Finding myself in about 2 foot water with sandbags and swift water rescue door knocking, the resident had two choices.
sandbags or evacuate.

An interesting night indeed

I've recently started to go bike riding again to improve cardio (rule 1) and I recently got a flat, easily fixed by replacing the tube, then repair the old tube once back home. but it got me thinking of what tools one would need to carry if using a bike to bug out, and where the tools could be store...

I must say, finding a good AA torch is hard enough. I ended up getting a pelican 7200, 3.7V lithium ion 18650 battery, charges via usb, 900 lumen. I've had it for a year and my only complaint is that I wish I could run the torch while charging the battery, other than that its been working well for m...

\I'm happy to go with civilian brands it they are offering similar quality and toughness to the military bags. You'll quickly notice civilian is an improvement over military packs. I have a SORD Large Field pack, it only gets used when I need to pack everything including the sink, for most hikes 3-...

So....more ozone = less UV rays.

from an area with the highest skin cancer rates (North Queensland, Australia) and where every day the UV rating is extreme...can't see the bad part of the deal.

I'll reconsider when I can't breath though

I'm keen, might have to modify it a bit for Australian regulations (min distance at local range is 109 yards)

also, link to range targets is not working

You probably shouldn't use candy as a food source. Or even a ration bar. Take advantage of that weight and throw in some dehydrated meals like mountain house. You'll be much better served. Physically and mentally. Or make up your own with Knorr food packs and tuna or chicken in foil. There are many...

Question: wouldn't it be easier to dig the trench anyway? what I'm reading is you want to build a tower to hold many gallons of water, and fill them from a hose. supporting the water is one thing, the safety issue of dealing with a 150 foot hose while climbing the tower. this might be a case of do i...

Hello all with several components of my survival kit nearing expiration I though it would be a good time to streamline it. changing my survival kit to a 2 part, with the intention of lasting at least 24 hours part A is 1200 calories of the most compact food I can find (probably some sort of candy) p...

http://cms.trtworld.com/sites/default/files/styles/headline/public/2017-08/trtworld-302188-338834.jpg?itok=JR7uUB_0 funny bit of info regarding australia and new zealand. when Australia became a country in 1901, the option for new zealand to join australia as a state was agreed upon by all the stat...

It depends on the type of thermal imaging camera. I have access to tiny ones that can see up to 100m, all the way up to the ones used on the aforementioned police chopper. pretty decent bit of kit, but it might be more effective to surround your homestead with IR security cameras, they're cheaper an...

Hi all I recently was fixing a broken electrical component for a relative's lazy boy recliner and it got me thinking, what would I do to repair stuff of an electrical nature when I couldn't duck down to the shop. I can build basic circuitry but this got me thinking. What do people stock up on, resis...

This would be really interesting to follow and see what develops, imagine a grid that can isolate, generate and redirect alternative power to minimize interruptions. however, we'll have to bomb-proof the transmission lines here first, as they have the rather unfortunate history of falling over every...

I choose other...as an employee I have access to the staff only sections, and any respectable zoo has a gun to deal with rogue large animals.

also...I choose a lethal weapon nearly everyone owns...the automobile, with a 1957 pattern australian army machete as backup, no modern cheap machetes here

+1 on using .223 as your calibre Pros: - Easy to shoot - common to find - good for small to medium game - accurate - easy to reload (tons of reloading data on it) - good reaching distance Cons: not good against large game like feral pigs (200+ kg), water buffalo and crocs (not alligators, estuarine ...

I've had 85+ inches of rain this year, so I could use a little drought. :ooh: C'mon down to the the South (of California) Better wait for the fire season to end. Maybe March ? :lol: Would it be poor form to air-drop sticks & marshmallows? :clownshoes: that depends, are you air dropping them to fire...

and as your hurricane season ends, cyclone season starts....

I was looking at some trucks, as potential off-road projects, and thought about all the systems I wouldn't need for the vehicle's intended purpose. While a/c may not necessarily be "out" given that I live in the south, many vehicles made in the last few decades are pretty loaded down with lots of h...

do you plan on using it regularly? does the ATV have an ECU? My first though would be a shipping container with aluminium tape over the hinges, a wire mesh would work, but you'd have to ensure that the gaps are less than the wavelength. A normal garden shed should work...but I do not know if the con...

the setups appear to be quite well made and though out, I wouldn't mind doing a Q and A with the person responsible, though I'm sure he/she doesn't frequent the forum. and a lesson we can all take away from this, protect your supplies, especially ammo from heat and ignition sources. not unheard of e...

The second scenario of the day: A property owner had gone out in the morning to check fences, 1/2 hour later the horse returned, no rider. Search team was activated to search for the missing person. upon discovery a quick head to toe revealed a head injury, nil neurological effects, an impaled objec...
