Joan Asked:
Can anyone reccomend the best dutch garden tools for cutting down large bushes stumps and also up rooting them ?
Reply:
It all depends on how much you have to do, and how valuable you consider your time.
The cheap way: axe, garden saw ( coarse teeth), pickaxe spade etc, and an awful lot of HARD WORK.
The easy way: hire a small excavator from your local Homebase, garden centre etc. and have a fun weekend, digging stuff out and filling a skip or two. ( Hippo bags might be cheaper - check the costs). With an excavator, you will probably get lots of offers of help from friends (male). Best of luck, and enjoy !

Usually its a Bug Out Bag or BOB…do a google search on it….that whole wagon idea is too large. Imagine all the survivors packed on a highway…you`ll end up leaving the cart and carrying an incomplete BOB. You`re better off using a framed pack or a MOLLE/ALICE pack to fit everything in. You want to be as mobile as possible. A wagon will hinder you.
Lose the following items (they are either not necessary or too heavy/bulky):
Dutch oven and cast iron fry pan- a titanium or even an aluminum cook set is smaller and much lighter and just as effective
Cot- use a sleeping pad and a sleeping bag, cot is unecessary
Pillow- use your extra clothes in a stuff sack as a pillow, regular pillow takes up too much room. you`re trying to survive not on vacation
Canned food- Go with dehydrated meals lighter weight and no need for a can opener. even MRE`s would be better than canned goods.
The shotgun or pistol (both are close range weapons.) Go with one or the other and then a rifle to hunt with.
You dont need a K-bar, swiss army knife and multi tool. Take the multitool and K-bar
the Zippo
Learn to use the Magnesium fire starter with the flint striker, its fail proof, where as the zippo can fail/break. It also way more compact than all the fuel and flint you`ll need for a zippo.
If your car is off when the nuke goes off the EMP wont affect electronics when they are off, its only when they are on.
You`ll be dead in 5 days from the fall out if you dont take Iodine pills- they prevent radiation posioning from the fallout.
I`d also bring along something to treat water, aside from boiling it- like a small backpacking filter.
Focus on Water, Shelter, Food, and Protection.
Loyalsock Creek was galloping…Hagerman’s run shook the earth with its boulder filled stream bed roiled…massive landslides on Bald Eagle Mountain….the dike on the South Side was like jello…the national guard guy stood on the front of his jeep and shouted out orders and within seconds organized a floundering group of people into a fine tuned machine…scenes I’ll never forget.
Thats a great Idea. they look real. did you use driftwood?
