DIY 2 Survive A How To Guide Of Great Prepper Projects
Welcome to DIY 2 Survive A How To Guide Of Great Prepper Projects. I’ve collected some of my best DIY
Projects in one easy place. Over the years since I started Survivalpunk I have done many DIY projects. Most
of my best projects are a few years old now and are buried in the blog archives. Many of you might not ever
see them.
With DIY 2 Survive A How To Guide Of Great Prepper Projects I did the work of gathering them in one
place. In this e-book you get 36 prepper projects.
This e-book is organized into 5 basic categories. Fire, Food, Gear, Cleaning and Tech. Each section has
several projects to choose from. I have detailed instructions to follow along with. There are over 150 photos
in this packed e-book.
You will learn how to make a coffee can hobo stove with pot holders. The perfect lightweight stove to take
backpacking. You don’t have to worry about bringing fuel with a hobo stove. Learn how to make fuel tabs
for esbit type stoves.
In the food section I teach you how to make your own camping meals. No more wasting money on Mountain

House meals. Making them yourself and they will be much healthier than the junk on the market. I show you
how to make fresh breakfast sausage at home. Finding sausage without fillers and chemicals is expensive.
You get those 2 plus 10 more great recipes.
In the Gear section I show you how to make a velcro backed battery holder. These are really great to stick on
packs and gear. They also are work amazing to keep batteries tidy in you pack. Have a great small light edc
light and want to go hands free with it? I teach you how to make any small flashlight into a headlamp.
In the cleaning section I teach you how to save money and get rid of toxic cleaners. I have two chapters on
making your own laundry soap. You will learn how to use baking soda and vinegar to clean around the
house.
Lastly is the tech section. There are only two projects in here but they are big ones. First learn how to make a
tough, waterproof, encrypted thumb drive to store your documents on. I may have over built this as it looks
bomb proof. Finally building a backup battery bank. This is by far the most expensive and most important
project in this book. I would not fault you for skipping to the end to do this one first.
I hope you enjoy this e-book copy of DIY 2 Survive A How To Guide Of Great Prepper Projects. You can

Fire
Coffee Can Hobo Stove
Stoves and cooking are two things I love. Maybe I’m just a pyromaniac foodie at heart. After several alcohol
stoves, esbit stoves and my Jetboil with modifications, I decided it was time to make a wood burning hobo
stove. I had a empty coffee can saved up just for this project and decided it was finally time. Enough jiba
jabba let’s get to building!

Roaring Fire
Coffee Can
The first thing you will need to do this project is an empty coffee can. Use the big metal ones. I bought it in
this container for this project. Drink all the coffee in it. Hopefully spread out over a few weeks.

Next I used a sharpie to mark around the can where I wanted to drill the holes. I put the point of the marker
inside one of the can ridges and turned the can. After marking it I used a center punch to make starting duvets
so my drill bit wouldn’t skate around on the metal.
Drilling the starter holes
I used my Dremel drill press to make the starter holes. You can do it without one but it sure makes it easy. A
full sized drill press would be even better, just not apartment friendly. My workshop is in my living room
after all. Life of a bachelor.
