It was a good movie. One thing that had me raise an eyebrow was his Aquaponic air filtration system. What I saw looked like a 50 Gal with a few small fish didn't make much real sense, but ignored it...
Pigs are a nuisance animal and in many states you are encouraged to hunt them.
The movie I think "Hannibal" had the giant boars that the man wanted to feed Lecter too.
Boar has for a very long...
Does fleece behave the same way when wet. I only have memories of being cold when my fleece stuff was sopping wet form playing in snow etc. Is there a natural fleece vs synth? When you say fleece I...
My concern is how cold. You can give a person all the things they need but if they can't stay warm then it matters not.
I would go with a thermal tarp, basically a Tarp with a thermal blanket...
Thanks for the link, my wife always tags me on FB when one of her friends posts one of these.
A cell phone is as high tech as you can get, even a crappy 5 yr old one is pretty robust, and it fits into your pocket. Even poor peopl in 3rd world countries have cell phones, for many it is their...
There is no real carrier that will have long term cell solutions if say power is lost, some carriers do have power backups on their towers but thats hit and miss at best. You could look into sat...
Remove battery, remove sim, no tracking... but in a emergency being tracked is a good thing... Unless you are in a hunted type situation.
I don't Knit, but it might. I am unsure if knit unravels like crochet does. I could see knitting an entire paracord tac-vest though lol.
You don't need service whatsever for a cell phone ( Pocket computer) to be useful. Just as a resource for books and info its tremendous how much my phone can carry, I have many books and pictures of...
Don't Laugh But I found Crochet to be the best method of storing cord off the spindle. Get the largest Hook you can find, crochet some nets and you can use em for plenty of things and when needed...
Not exactly on track but Different phones actually have different reception quality.
As far as a ferro rod with your smartphone, I can easily mod a Larger and smaller TPU phone case to make a...
In a previous post near top I actually mentioned I use a color coded drybag system, but I want to be able to stuff my sleeping stuff or coat in a bag if fording or light rain etc and not have to...
Most definitely TX but truth is learning the woods and tinder is just as important, so I hedge my bets as much as I can. I tried the fire plow method with some really old fencing I have lying around,...
Nice thread. I would also point out in a real survival situation all these cheat methods you point out TX are pretty damn good ideas. The match rubbed inside the notch on your board for one. I think...
A samsung galaxy s5 or newer of course! lol
I once made a post way back when on the uses of a cell phone even with out cell signal/wifi. But nothing else taken into account if you invest a little...
Thanks Rick and Tx for info.
Thanks Rick. There is a local farm near me and the guy says their 100% alpaca blankets run $150 which seems pricey.
In regards to smell how do you manage? Let the stuff air/drip dry or does it need more than that? I found a spanish site that seems to make Alpaca stuff but I sent an email to see what % is alpaca,...
Does alpaca work the same way?
If I remember correctly sopping wet wool still keeps you warm. Granted it should be unprocessed. As for sleeping bags etc I have just taken a que from the ultra lighters and gotten a reinforced space...
I'd imagine a bit of Diatomaceous earth tossed in / rubbed on would do the trick, Or a lavender and distilled water spritz.
Prayers going out for your wife and yourself. Just remember to take care of yourself too. Running yourself ragged helps neither of you. Be strong mate.
I am in total agreement when it comes to going light there are many better options. But for me this seems to fit the bill. I got several trainings and work trips coming up over the next few months...
