Aww, don't give up on the Heiny Can! I wanted to see what you'd come up with.6UNF1GHTER wrote: Sweet!
I had a bean (chili) can that I was planning on using with my Nalgene, just in case the Heiny can pot didn't test good. Hate to use the bean can now.... but it seems like a super cool idea! Great post btw! Just got done watching the vids on it... and once again, I dig it!
Does your BOB at least have: water, basic tools, fire, food, first-aid kit, and shelter?

Well, I'm still working on that actually... so I'm not done

Just figuring out the pouch and contents is the hardest thing so far - since there is a plethora of thems.

Re: Mag Pouch Survival Kit Contest- Now With OUR FIRST ENTRY!!!
So here are my submissions. The first one I have had around for a few years, I built it in a college course on wilderness survival. It fits snug next to my seat in the jeep.


It is an older canvas ammo pouch with:
A gerber fixed blade. I don't usually keep the paracord daisychained to it but I'm experimenting here so...
Inside:
A baking tin
Outside the baking tin is A straw water purifier, lighter, LED and chapstick.
Inside the tin:
Plastic Poncho and Blanket
Notepad w/ pencil wrapped in duct tape
Fishing kit
Whistle
Cotton balls to fill in the gaps
Wire saw (on top of) A compass
BOAT
All put together

Inside the boat is:
Safety pins
Floss
Pencil
fishing string
Snare wire
Foil
Butterfly Bandaids
Mag and Flint
Gerber Knife w/ Razor blades
Birthday candles
Rubber band goes around the boat


Here is the one I made for my wife for Christmas. I also made one for my sister mostly identical to this.

Still in the tin

This one also has the baking tin with most of the same goods as mine.
Roll of 550 Cord goes in the gernade pouch
CRKT knife in sheath goes in the side
BOAT goes in the bottom of the tin
Cotton balls fill in the gaps
Note Pad, poncho and blanket go in last
Baking Tin
Compass
Flint/ Steel
Pencil wrapped in duct tape
Lighter and LED go in the side of the pouch outside of the tin
Floss and a whistle

The BOAT

The contents of the BOAT:
2 Tea Candles, I "upgraded" her to these after reading the idea at ZS
12ish safety pins
P-78
Under the P-78 is some snare wire
Gerber pocket knife with razor blades, the kind wrapped in cardboard
The purple straw contains a few needles and some thread
White/ Green straw contains fishing weights
White straw contains fishing line
White/ Blue straw contains fishing hooks pretied to string
Rubber band goes around the BOAT

The great thing about this contest is it makes you take a look at your kit and gives others a chance to look at and critic your kit. Just posting this I realize like 20 things I could do to make these way better. As with all preps these should go along with common sense, dress sensible and remember your EDC. If your going out into the sticks bring food and water...

Thanks, and by all means copy and adapt it for yourself. The signal mirror is my favorite part. It's all metal and thinner than a credit card. It takes up almost zero space, and adds next to nothing to the weight.aus.templar wrote:good job murph, i really like that kit.... might build a copy of it for personal use

Re: Mag Pouch Survival Kit Contest- Now With OUR FIRST ENTRY!!!
leadpulaski- nice work!
Those kits are exactly what I have in mind when I think about what this contest is about! All bases covered in a package small enough to belt carry or toss in a daypack. I very much like that you have made extras for your family, they mighty just come in handy someday! Might be good to have a list of contents and a few survival tips included...
Murph- you built that out of "scraps"? Damn, I wanna see your stash

Re: Mag Pouch Survival Kit Contest- Now With OUR FIRST ENTRY!!!
I don't have a mag pouch so I used a crappy airsoft 'medic' pouch. Not the most durable and definitely not pretty but it does the job! Dimensions are 19cm x 13cm x 6.5cm, approximately 98 cubic inches.




SHELTER
-Golite Poncho/Tarp
-Mylar Emergency Blanket
-550 Paracord 30'
WATER
-Platypus Water Bottle, 1 Litre
-Aquatabs Water Treatment Tablets (50)
-Aquamira Frontier Straw Filter
-Snow Peak 700 Titanium Cup with Lid
FIRE
-Tinder, Cottonballs + Petroleum Jelly
-Firesteel, 6mm
-Bic Lighter
-Nato Matches (10) + Striker Strip (2)
SIGNAL & NAVIGATION
-Ultimate Survival Starflash Ultra Signal Mirror
-Whistle, Pea-less
-Fenix LD20 + Candle Diffuser
-AAA Alkaline Batteries (4)
-Silva Compass
TOOLS
-SOG Flash 2 Spring Assisted Pocket Knife (AUS8)
-Pocket Chainsaw & Handles
MISC
-Duct Tape
-Dental Floss, 20m
-Fishing Kit (12lb line, 6lb line, 5 x Size 1 Hooks, 5 x Size 4 Hooks, 5 x Splitshot)
-Sewing Kit
-Stuff Sack, 1 Litre
I have tried to keep this kit as versatile as possible but my priorities (in order) are Shelter, Water, Fire, Signal and Food Procurement. I have tried to include as many multi-use items as possible such as the tarp (shelter, rain wear, water collection, carrying device), dental floss (hygiene, cordage, sewing, trapping) and ubiquitous duct tape (repairs, medical, trapping, signal).
Although the fire kit is reasonably comprehensive, if conditions are wet, careful rationing of the small amount of tinder is required. I figure to keep the first fire alive to preserve supplies.
*** NOTE: I would loved to have put a fixed blade in but even my rc3 was too big to fit into the pouch.
As my aim was to keep this kit contained within the pouch I went with a quality folder instead.

Re: Mag Pouch Survival Kit Contest- Now With OUR FIRST ENTRY!!!
I find it vaguely ironic that you used a medic pouch, but didn't put any first aid items in it. 

Does your BOB at least have: water, basic tools, fire, food, first-aid kit, and shelter?

Re: Mag Pouch Survival Kit Contest- Now With OUR FIRST ENTRY!!!
It's been one month since we started this thing rolling
, 280 posts and 5,800 looks, wow!
Lots of good stuff from all of you, and we sill have a month to go! Hope we get lots more kits posted up, however big, small, expensive or cheap. In the end, it's the kit that works for you that matters
There have been a few to offer up an item or two for the big winner, which is very cool (thank you- you know who you are
), and I will forward this super awesome ZS patch when the time comes.

Now quit sandbagging and post up, dammit!!!

Can someone provide me with the measurements on one of the smaller pouches on this case? I can't seem to get a good measurement on it.

Re: Mag Pouch Survival Kit Contest- Now With OUR FIRST ENTRY!!!
Alright, I tried to be somewhat original but I fear I may have only partially succeeded. I think this pouch is legal, at least from all the talk of the other canteen pouch...
The whole shebang:


The outside pocket, with backup Bic and Fox Howler rescue whistle:


Opening it up, for dramatic emphasis:



The container, which can be used to boil water, and the lid, which can be used as a bowl:

I got this at Target, it is supposed to hold coffee. The idea was not mine, however, credit must be given to WoodsMonkey.com
The contents:

BOAT expanded:



Shelter
1. AMK Heatsheet 2-person blanket
2. 2x15' and 2x30' 550 paracord
Water
3. Ziplock bag
4. Katadyn Micropur tablets
Fire
5. Bic Lighter
6. Waterproof matches and striker
7. Firesteel and PJCBs (in pill bottle)
8. There is also some small cotton wading and paper in the BOAT
Food
9. Slingshot band
10. 100' fishing line on sewing spool
11. Small hooks, lead weight and wine cork float
12. Snare wire
13. Spice Packet
Tools
14. Signal Mirror
15. Leatherman Wave
16. Bandana
17. Needle
18. Brunton clip-on compass
19. Princeton-Tec headlamp
20. Duct Tape
21. Safety Pin
22. Ranger Bands
First Aid
23. BC headache powder
24. Alcohol Wipe
25. Needle (crosslisted)
26. Bandana (crosslisted)
Misc
27. Pencil and Paper
28. Altoids tin
29. Moist towels
Comments:
I hope to use the duct tape in place of bandaids, and if I needed to repair the heatsheet.
I chose a smaller needle so that I could theoretically use it to suture. I have used standard curved cutting needles before, but not straight sewing needles. Would it work? Hope I don't need to answer that...
I could add my platy canteen to the pouch, but I tried to keep it simple. The ziplock should work fine.
I threw some moist towels in there for comfort, something I think I would appreciate if I was ever bloody/dirty and stranded somewhere...
I have the ranger bands around the slingshot bands so I could use them to attach to a branch, and make it easier to construct a slingshot, and even deconstruct should that be necessary.
Hopefully this is something that could be easily reproduced, kinda like Murph's garage sale kit. Granted, mine has much more expensive stuff (like the Wave and headlamp) but the rest is fairly cheap, esp the container.

Re: Mag Pouch Survival Kit Contest- Now With OUR FIRST ENTRY!!!
Deeds-
You may have just built the ultimate kit (from my point of view, anyway)! Simple, functional and top notch gear. I don't know that I would want (or need) to change a thing, except maybe the pouch
. I've got you on the front runner radar now *cough* w/ Necro */cough*
Veritas-
Very nice, that coffee container is slick! How big is it? BTW, canteen pouch=perfectly "legal"
Murph-
Great kit- not overbuilt, just built. You can tell just by looking it will work.
