What have you done to prep this week?

[ladyhk13]

I did an inventory of all our medicines and organized them. Does that count?

Tonight we packaged 22-3 cup bags of rice ,5-2 lb. bags of pinto beans ,and 5- 1lb. bags of pasta. We used two 300cc oxygen absorbers in the large bags and one in each of the smaller bags.

Welcome to the site and look forward to seeing more preps! Great job!

Does this count? OK well, I'm working on (Today) restoring an old 1914 Singer model 29-4. It's a treadle (foot pump) type, used for leather goods, boots shoes, harnesses, saddles and the like. INDUSTRIAL It doesn't use electricity so it's "off grid", did one for the wife a while back, just would like to see her use it. But she's busy doing her other "preppin" things. Good thing is we are in it together.

Be safe........the night is your friend.

Finally finished clearing out the garden, have 2 trays of chives on the dehydrator, 3 trays of oregano, and 2 of basil.

got my garage sorted out a bit, ready to build another set of shelves next weekend, and continue the organization. Once that's done, then I will be expanding my pantry by 2x the storage space.

I finally got all the carpet out, molding out and am waist deep in replacing all the carpet with locking laminate "wood". By...MYSELF, thank you very much. We'll categorize this as practice in: using tools, sleep deprivation, and "yes I canism". I am darn determined I will have it all done before 40 odd people show up at my house for early Thanskgiving when Hubby has his leave. I think I can, I think I can.

Just finished a Suzuki Sidekick (4dr.) conversion to VW Diesel engine. The engine is a 93 so all of the fuel system is mechanical and the only electronics are the diodes in the alternator. This will work with regular diesel as well as bio diesel. Just now running the first tank of fuel through it so don't yet know what the fuel economy will be. Hoping for 35-40mpg.

yep, not a road racer in power but does the job. Next is to install a battery isolator for the accessory battery in the rear mounted utility box. Have an onboard air system capable of 110 psi at 2cfm, 2kw continous 4kw surge power inverter for 110v and dash controlled air shocks in the rear of the vehicle.

After the battery isolator, a winch bumper/brush guard will go on the front for deer protection.
