Re: Solar battery chargers and other 'prepper' stuff
I use and have used solar for some years but have started to expand my experiments. Quality gets better and prices get better every year. I do everything cheaply so understand my goal is cheap or free and easy to fix. I am self-taught and tend to screw up a lot so easy to fix is big. In the garage I...

Re: Altoids candy box survival boxes
Or, you can save your dryer lint in a plastic bag with your fire rod. Mine has the metal striker on a loop with the rod. :idea: Blain. The only problem with dryer lint is you have to be sure of your fabric softener. Some of it has fire retarders for baby cloths and such. The lint doesn't burn very ...

They are nice tins for many things but making tinder is great. Then there is first aid kits, sewing kits and on and on. I have taught and started a LOT of fires with flint and steel and I make a lot of char.

Re: IMPACT
Thank you Jim. Through the centuries, many have rejected Jesus Christ, and continue to do so. I believe significant reasons for this rejection is many don't want to give up their sin, many refuse to acknowledge accountability to the creator, thus refusing to surrender their will to Christ. Many ref...

Winter Solstice.
So there is this thing that happens at sunset on the winter solstice. There is a slice of light that comes through the house from two windows and a doorway. If you are outside the house on a ladder at sunset you get to see this. The ancients would be proud.

I don't believe they did. The WP was used on completed and tested guns. The factory did use "P" proofed barrels ready for shipping to gunsmiths to be outside fitted to complete some guns and then the WP was added.
