Re: What Knipex pliers size will you choose?
If it's just for the scooter I'd be inclined to add a couple of the most common sized proper spanners...

Re: What Knipex pliers size will you choose?
If it's being carried on a scooter or any other vehicle I'd always lean towards the larger ones . Weight would be less of a problem and the extra leverage is always good. For travel the smaller size could be a decent idea if they have to fit in a pocket although saying that I have a couple of pairs ...

Re: How long can you sustain your family on your stored food? And tips how to rotate
This brings me to a conclusion that we probably don't need much food to store - in case of a disaster we will be evacuated, in case of WW3 - well, I will try to move out from radioactive land to places that are less contaminated, but there is still a chance I have to stay put before the opportunity...

Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 10
A question about the jerusalem artichokes . A couple of years ago I planted some in an old barrel half partly on the basis of how they spread comments . I didn't touch them as I wanted them to get established. However , the barrel which was second or probably fourth or fifth hand gave up the ghost ...

Re: Disproportionate storage
If anyone can find an historical example of a situation where bread , potatoes and pasta have disappeared but bacon and butter have still been plentiful I'd be glad to hear of it. A bit odd historical fact - I am from Central Asia and, during Perestroika, we could buy meat on the market because the...

Re: How long can you sustain your family on your stored food? And tips how to rotate
Things might run a bit faster with a WW3 scenario. Plus unless we 'won' rationing might become the new permanent, like Cuba, or maybe NK. Rationing could just take so many forms. Food price inflation is a dirty version that we face now. Could/Would government regulate a fair and more social system ...

I kept the kick board as it is , it clips off eas...
