> mfw you just described exactly what me and my gf are planning on doing

>>1009885
Right on brother. Where do you guys live?

Also, we are thinking of growing a few tobacco plants to allow me to indulge in my pipe smoking vice.

>>1009887
Sounds nice, try being as self sufficient as you possibly can while being comfortable.

I am a Dutch guy currently living the studen/slave life. My and my girlfriend decided that the whole "keeping up with the jonesses" thing is completely true. Mostly I, long for a simple farm-style life. Planning on moving to Czech Republic a.s.a.p., where land is cheaper and the people are less "diverse".

>inb4 racist

Now that we have a gear thread you should use that

>>1021444
Not that anon but fuck off? /out/ is a slow board and solar panels isn't exactly a typical gear question...

>>1021451
Stupid gear threads with disposable questions like yours take up space that otherwise could have been used for quality discussion.
It's not even sn /out/ related subject anyway.
Either google it, or fuck off.

>>1020488
Sorry, you're about to get shitposted.

Get rabies shots in case your hospital runs out of rabies immunoglobulin or doesn't bother to stock it because it's so rare in western civ, then you'll just need a booster. Small dogs are vicious and have horrible temperaments, always be ready to punt them. Carry a chisel or thick fixed blade knife to bludgeon and then pry apart the jaw of any pitbull that tries to kill you. Be calm or depressed around most dogs, most will behave friendly towards you or at least quickly calm down. Maybe carry treats in case that doesn't work.

>>1020488
Charge them and they will scramble
Dogs are pussies

Should go ahead and throw this in:

>Living in DFW, Texas
>Willing to swallow the initial input costs

>Is there a high commodity crop folks would be willing to buy that could be continuously pumped out of my backyard?

inb4 dude weed lmao

>>1027021
You could give tobacco a try.

>>1027036
Would there be a market in backyard tobacco? That's a bit tougher to sell door to door than basil, isn't it?

if you're worried about excessive shitting you can add something like imodium to the list, but that's really all you'll need.

>inb4 "medic" roleplayers show up and demonstrate how little they actually know

Superglue is good. In case you get a cut you can just glue it back together.
Some kind of disinfectant would be good for that list as well.
If you are going far /out/ then thread and needle and rope somewhere in your pack, not necessarily the medkit.

I have the best way to assemble a first aid kit.

School buses are never locked, just go into the bus yard at night. The kits are behind the driver seat usually.

Grab like 20 of them and you'll be able to mix and match everything to your exact needs, and you'll be able to make kits for all your buddies too.

Also all the containers the first aid stuff comes in are super handy for storing other things like ammo.

>>1025891
Define "a really long time" people hike and camp for a very long time and have no issues. In terms of the other stuff:
>needed a source of income
I have never changed my address, just always given people my parents one, so for all intents and purposes I could be homeless. Squaters I have known have also done this and held down jobs.
>ID
Why does being /out/ permanently mean you have no ID? Don't you already hold some form?
>Missing person
Can't you just let a trusted person know what you are doing so they can stop missing persons being filed?
Anecdote time. I knew a guy who lived in a proper old horse drawn gypsy caravan, he was a forester so would just roam from one job to another living in his caravan. Worked for cash, didn't cause any issues and stayed out of trouble. He's still doing it to this day.

I mean fucking off into the woods to start a new life with no connections.

>I mean fucking off into the woods to start new life with no connections.

You sound like you have zero life experience and are embracing an "I'm running away" defense mechanism. Grow up.

You aren't going to do this; the sooner you drop this fantasy and try to improve your lot in life, the better.

this was pretty much the entire clearing, and then it was swamp to the right and thick bush everywhere else until the highway

>>1025777
Personally hate the ATV scene. Eroding the trails and dunes away to waste Bunch of fat-bellied numbskulls with legs that are unable to carry their own weight.

I hope you get caught and some grunt goes to your home and fucks your wife to see how do you like messing around with what does not belong to you.

Welp, as someone who lives in Southeast VA, your pretty much boned in terms of places to go unless you go out of state, to the George Washington National Forest, or take an interest in kayaking.

If you do go somewhere to practice bushmeme/wilderness survival in the NF, try to do it a decent distance away from roads as most of the easy to access trails are pretty heavily traveled and people that do that lead to more restrictions for primitive campers.

Also, if anyone knows of some decent locations to camp/hike at in VA feel free to chime in.

>>1024023
Lurk more

>>1024086
I had a feeling this is the response I would get, bummer. I've been down towards GWNF before so I actually might consider a trip there.

Know of any good bushcraft youtubers that teach some good primitive skills?

Buy land

>>1022928
And goats....

How do I turn people on to raw goats milk. it is more like human milk than cows milk and doesn't taste goaty if you don't heat it for pasteurization.

>>1020928
For a while now, BBC has been phasing out white people from its line up. I'm not even joking. He moved to "ITV" and works for them now (as of 2010). I think he's doing "Wild ____ with Ray Mears" shows each year now. Like "Wild France with Ray Mears" which came out last year.

>>1020928
>BBC has been phasing out white people

Take it to /pol/ you paraniod fag.

>>1020997
Did you not hear the shit flinging over the latest Doctor Who season when they literally said that very thing even to the point of rewriting history to make it have more people of color? Mears moving to ITV is because of that. Literally. It has nothing at all to do with /pol/.

Nalgenes are the only bottles

I will spend the next 6 months on an internet fight to prove it, too.

>>1020483
HDPE Nalgene master race reporting in

>>1020483
The regular nalgene is more durable, that's what I'd use. Maybe the larger size one for SHTF.

>>1026415
In the 1920s ti 1960s sure.

>>1026415
There's plenty of solitary jobs like this. Maintaining tiny houses in the wilderness is one I looked at

>>1026415
Yep.
Job title is a Fire Lookout. In the US you would work for the US Forest Service. It's probably not like the game. I'm really not sure how much "exploring" you would get to do.

Here is a job listing

Connections are not ideal between bottom and top but they are solid and work for now. I will be trying out some clips to make it a quicker system. Even so the MOD straps combined with split rings is working well.

Everything can break down and can be used for three distinct kit builds. The center piece holds two gsi cups that sandwich a 38oz ss nalgene. The lid has an elastic band I sewed in that retains my fire tin. The outside pouch holds basic food supplies. This is the first stage of the kit for small hikes that I still want to bring a decent water supply or some snacks.

Second stage adds on the side pouches. This is for a full day journey where some emergency preparedness is preferred. Right kit holds first aid and left holds smokes and dugout plus water filter, space blanket, and notebook with writing utensil.

Third stage is for overnight adventures. Poncho and woobie make for a sleeping bag, inside the pack is a base layer rolled up in socks, and a hammock.

>>1026154
It looks alright, but I suggest you add rope, some duct tape and a bigger fire starting kit to it.

How well are you able to carry this, seeing that it is held together by clips, or am I missing something?

Doppler radar most likely. Maybe telescopes if they had a section that slides open.

It looked military (a lot of surveillance cameras and next to the old sowjet border)

>>1026100
Probably some sort of military radar array then. Doppler radar usually just has one dome.
