We are all aware (painfully!) of the rising prices and expected shortages of food. We know that computer chips are long lead items because of both manufacturing and supply chain issues. What else do we expect to be short that an average guy should start buying for sustainment? I understand food water and ammo, but what about sustainment and repair items like glue or chemicals or parts or whatever else?

I've been buying camping supplies, whatever I would need to live a couple weeks in the woods, figure it will serve dual purpose if things shut down. one example; I bought a portable power supply and plan on getting solar panels to charge it, also have a 12volt electric blanket to go with it.
Watch videos on making a rocket stove you can make your own with bricks or cinder block and I'm sure you can make one with flat stone.
This would save you in a pinch if you ever run out of the propane.
And there are also videos on YouTube on making reverse osmosis water purification with glass bottles and sand.
Those are some of the things I've been watching..
thanks, that's a good idea/need to get a rocket stove. we're remodeling & plan on cooking outside this summer, living simply. also saw something about bottles & sand for distilling, need to look it up again.
