   Look for Co Ops in your area. I can get 50 pound bags of organic wheat for $0.50 to $1.00 per pound depending on the variety.

   We have a movie that shows how to use a clothing iron to seal the mylar. A hair iron would work as well.

   Hey guys, awesome …
   Hey guys, awesome video! Just had a brief question. Would a hair straightener work as well in lieu of the clamshell heater for sealing up plastics / mylar?

   Thanks in advance!

   I have Dent Corn, …
   I have Dent Corn, but i have it to make nixtamal for tortillas. I’m pretty sure you would use dent corn for corn meal though. IF you are storing wheat or something else that is whole grain you don’t have to worry about eating it fast. It’s not going to go bad, so i would stick with the 5 gallon buckets for those things

   Ok there is only …
   Ok there is only two in our family now. We can’t use 5 gallons when opened. What do you suggest? Using 1 gallon buckets and 1 gallon mylars? If so what kind of one gallon buckets? The ones w/gaskets too and where would I get them? Also, what type of corn needs to be bought to store to make cornmeal? All I have heard you speak of in your videos are popping corn which you said is a bit course when milled. What’s the alternative? Waiting on a reply. Can’t wait to get started!

   Rice need water and heat to be cooked If you store rice and you want to use it in a survival situation you may have a problem ….what would you recommend to store that can be eaten any without cooking

   Or you could go to an antiques store and buy an old school heat up on the fireplace type cast iron IRON and use that.

   If we want to survive and remain free, we have to think outside the box and come with solutions, not just dwell on the problem and think that things are hopeless.

   Good luck. “Dave in Idaho”

    Without electricity …
    Without electricity- purge the air out once the bag is full like we have shown, take heavy duty duct tape and run a strip where the mylar bag lips meet EXCEPT the last inch or so. Fold the corners in just like we did on the video, leaving the last inch open and push all the air out you can. Then tape the last inch or so. Is at as good as sealing it? No but it will work and it’s better than doing nothing. Also, go to an antiques store and get – SEE NEXT POST

    AE system. Batteries etc. That and a simple propane stove,set the iron on it…and seal. Thinking Outside the box is what will get us by. Not cowering in fear waiting to be shipped off to a tinfoil dream of fema red and blue camps!

    Good job. But these little bag sealers wont work when your power is out. And if FEMA takes command your power wont be on, neither will the phone, internet, cell towers, or water.

    How can we seal the bag w/out electricity?

    Even though I’m from Australia an not sure if I can get the exact type of feed, I am sure there’s an alternative.

    Thanks once again

    My oxygen absorbers …
    My oxygen absorbers are 2000cc each. Since I will only be using one absorber per bucket should I put the absorber in the bottom of the bucket or the top?
    Thanks for the videos and your comments. They are very helpful.

    I think you need to rewatch the whole thing. I’m pretty sure I very clearly stated that the absorbers we were using in that demonstration were old and we were doubling up on them for that reason.

22. delta69alpha Said,

    It was explained in …
    It was explained in part 1 that the O2 ’s were older ones( over 8 years old) and to be safe that extras could be added to the buckets. There is no need to “save” the absorber with the mindset of ” those cost me 13$..” when you reach your recommended absorption rate and you have extra O2 absorbers going to “waste”. Just drop them in there. It is better to be safe and have ” more” than not.
    Whats that saying so many like… 2 is one, one is none ;p

23. misesrothbard Said,

    Is it just me, or …
    Is it just me, or did you clearly use only 2 oxygen absorbers in these demonstrations, only moments after harping and harping and harping on how you need to use a 3rd, extra packet, to ensure ample o2 absorbtion? The whole “stepping over a dollar to save a dime” bit in part 1.

    “As stated earlier many companies use it for dry food packaging ”

    email any of the above and so will I in the next 24 hours. ask them this
    ” Is DE used when packing your LTS items you sell?”
    I already have and i can say that they DO NOT. So either the packers are FOS or you are. Which is it?
