How To Make A Glowstick Alarm | Survivor Medic
I learned to make something similar to this back when I was still in the Marine Corps and was reminded of it after seeing a video a few months ago where one of these was made with a mousetrap. I couldn’t think of a reason to make one at the time, but who needs a reason? The purpose of this device is to warn you when someone crosses your perimeter. The rat trap, when tripped, breaks the glowstick and causes it to illuminate. So, not only will you hear the trap snap shut, you’ll see where your perimeter was breached. I started by painting the rat trap OD green because, as everyone knows, painting it this color makes it 40% more awesome. Pull your lines through the holes in the trap as shown here. The completed trap should look something like this. Here’s a short video of the trap being activated in the dark. [youtube=
Kammok tarp collects rainwater for drinking
Hammok manufacturer Kammok is working to bring an innovative new tarp to market. Not only does the tarp provide shelter from the rain, it funnels that rain into a gutter system and bottles it, providing a hassle-free way of procuring clean drinking water. View all Unlike other sources of water common in the wild, rainwater is inherently clean and a good option for refilling a water bottle, especially if you don't have a water purification system on hand. However, collecting water with narrow-mouthed bottles or hydration bladders can be difficult and ineffective. The Glider seeks to make rainwater collection easier with a dual-function design. The amount of water that the Glider system will collect obviously depends upon how much rain is falling. Another interesting feature of the Glider is that it's made from a new Cordura-based "Amphibiskin" fabric that includes both waterproofing and heat reflective coating.

Farm Apprenticeships: Keeping Farmers From Going Extinct - Homesteading and Livestock
Small-scale farmers and homesteaders are in a powerful position to bring about the changes our food system desperately needs. By growing food locally and sustainably, farmers improve the physical, economic and ecological health of their communities. Today’s average farmer is in his or her late 50s. These farmers will need replacements, and their numbers need to be dramatically increased. Transferring their knowledge to future farmers is vital to the expansion of the emerging sustainable food system. Industrial agriculture is disastrous for the soil and environment, animal welfare, and local economies — not to mention human health. Monsanto and Big Ag want us to believe that only industrial agriculture can feed the world. • Small farms use more niche space by planting crop mixtures. • The integration of crops and livestock allows plants to benefit from manure, while animals benefit from surplus crops that aren’t consumed by humans.
