@@NoGoodLyingSnake I typed it once, over a year ago, and it still makes sense to myself and others.

WW2 and the seven or so years after WW2 when I was growing up ( almost 80 now ), even the well-to-do had nothing. Rationing was still on and manufactured goods were not there. Almost every day you would hear someone say, " I wish I had kept that ........, I could really, really use it now ". Even the smallest, seemingly useless items became very important. I remember the guys going out to old junk yards and finding still sites ( there were at least 8 out in the woods that were raided prior to WW2 before we purchased the land ) to find precious steel, copper piping, and other items. Junk Became Essential.

So much in this video is spot on. The seasons of your life speaks to me especially. I've got so much to get rid of simply because I'll never use it ever again. Everything from some of the tools that I used to build our house to golf clubs, tennis racquets and even a fish tank. My wife's uncle (who's awesome) was in army supply and their house is amazing, not a thing out of place and everything's grouped together and ready to go, just like this. His daughter and her family live in his family farm and there's not a single blade of grass out of place. The old barn is clean swept and squared away with all lawn and garden equipment grouped together and covered with a canvas tarp. You'd be hard pressed to find a single cobweb and even their chicken coup is neatly squared away. Clearly this is the best way to live and a good thing to aspire to.

Yep.......Story checks out, 8 days is definitely more then a week. Carry on.

I was really sick once and my friend who is like a guru for health told me to do something that was really simple. He said think of the water in your body like engine oil. It gets dirty and you have to get it out. He told me to get bottled spring water. He said if it is in glass that is better than plastic. He said to get a case of it. Also he had me get the lowest dose time release vitamin C I could find. He also had me buy the lowest dose echinacea. He had me alternate the vitamin C and echinacea between drinking bottles of water. He had me alternate each every 15 minutes. It went like this. Water, vitaminC, Water, echinacea, water, C etc. I did this for about 3 hours and was fully hydrated but because the vitamin C is a diuretic you make multiple trips to the bathroom. The echinacea helps support your immune system. By the end of the three hours I was half way to healthy the next morning I was healthy. You basically exchange the dirty water in your body for the clean. Take a multivitamin once you're done and you are good to go. Feel better!

Ha, I was talking to an old farmer neighbor. He has a huge farm yard full of tractors, cars, trucks, machinery and tons of just stuff for the farm. He is 86 and feeble. He knows it. But he will not sell any of it. Not one thing and people stop by and ask him all the time, offering lots of money. I asked him what going to happen when he’s gone? He said his daughter has already told him she will take it all to the dump. He knows it.

3 years ago I had seen this video. I had already been watching your channel for maybe 5 years? Its been awhile. Anyway, prior to watching the video i Had a loose idea of what needed to be done for a neighbor so he'd be safe from the changes of the outside world as he got older and the world got crazier. This video helped me visualize what was needed and how. What he has now is over kill, and although hes admitted me that, he also knows that whatever may come up, will be resolved. Thank you, especially for your earlier videos where things were more hands on.

Hey Cody, my shop is constructed similarly to yours. I insulated it using 2" styrofoam panels w/ foil backing, and expanding foam in the cracks. Cutting down the air infiltration helped at least as much as the insulation itself did, and the foil towards the inside of the shop really brightened up the area as well. My pellet stove will actually heat the place now, before it wouldn't even melt tracked in snow on the floor. I find that I wind up using propane radiant spot heaters more often, though. Heat right where and when I need it.

Propane generators for those that don't want to deal with fuel shelf life as you can run them off a BBQ tank and no worry about did it get shut down right last time as any fuel left in the carb leaks out when you disconnect it. It is also easier to find a tank when the power is out then to find a gas station you can fill a 5 gallon can at.

Truly one of the best videos I've seen from Wranglerstar in a year. Thank you.

Hey wranglerstar, you should get one of those big diesel army generators that are 15kw and put a transfer switch on your main line, so when the power goes out you can power everything in your house from freezers to your welders in your shop, and those big military generators will not break and will run forever. You have that Honda generator but that's consumer grade unlike the army generator that will run untill it blows up. Just a idea so you know you will have power no matter what. You can get them from millitary auctions

Always inspiring to watch these videos. Last year I basically three out everything in my basement. It was a great decision. I don't even remember what i threw out!

Here is one you are not gone like cody. Have a barrel of 2stroke alkylate petrol and one or two 4stroke alkylate petrol. Expensive? Yes. But it doesn't spoil in 6 months like regular stuff ethanol or not. I have had machines who haven't run for 5 years and they start after like 4 pulls. And that is gas in the gastank. Not stored in it's supplied can or barel. I have read that in theory it can't spoil if you buy good grade stuff. Not the cheaper. Since you are talking about emergency supplies that seems the better option. It is what i would do outside of keeping a standard use supply.

Great workmon you shop! It would be nice to see how you have your house set up to accept the generator for power outages.

Would love to see a break down on the which freeze dried foods you compared before making your decision. Great video series!!!

Looks good👍 I couldn't tell due to how far the Camara was from the old gas can your using for old oil but I'd have them labeled so someone that doesn't know doesn't pour them into a vehicle thinking its gas. I love shop organizing videos. Seems I always learn something. Have a Jesus filled day Greg in Michigan

The old metal boat fuel cans are great for storage as well they seal up really tight and they are built like tanks, and they have the adapters you can hook up a pump or adapt it to an engine. So many options with one type of can. Just a tip from a Michigander!

Best video , cleaning up garage and getting life in order .

Great video! A “Proper” Shop 👍🏻

all your backup stuff eventually needs to be covered/secured with some type of doors, on the racks where they are is fine, at least covered for the casual walk-in from afar - simple installed rack closure to protect your stock - just for immediate space safety. thank for your works and great presentation

super inspiring, incredible job!!

I’ve learned my lesson this year living out here in farm country. When a blizzard hits, and the power goes out. And, an all electric house using an oil heater, has no heat. I need at least a 5000w generator to run the furnace and water heater. Luckily, the house is wired up to switch over to a generator. I found that the local electric cooperative first restores power to the towns, then they come out into the countryside later, if the roads are clear.. So during blizzards, the power always goes out. Some times for days. That means here, you will get cold with no shower.

Great video again! For routine day to day stuff and annual reviews consider health related information (i.e. annual physical, shots, etc. for your family and emergency supplies for health related issues). You started your video with information about your current 'under the weather' issue. How do you deal with those items?

The times that are coming and coming up fast. Nevermind having the time to do it in. I truly fear these times we will be facing and those that just are not going to manage the bare Essentials. All I can say is like you do, which is, please pray for them and us. Thanks for your time and be well you and yours.

Your wall of fuel and tires.... it's beautifully laid out and also one heck of a giant bomb. But, if ever there was a person whom I would trust that something is fire safe, it'd be Cody. God bless, this is motivating me to de-clutter. Well wishes to the family.

We got a 4 week supply for testing before getting more. It taste the same as the storbought versions of the meals so far. Will be ordering more soon.

Would love an indepth on generator, hooking up to your main panel, how you manage running only specific items and circuits. Do you turn off all non-essential breakers? Do you have them marked accordingly for quick change? Do you use the "electric dryer plug" as an input into the system or have a dedicated switch and input connections? What about grounding for the generators? Do you have pre-placed grounding rods pounded 2' in the ground, with 6AWG wire reader to hook up to generators? Etc. etc. Thanks, love your videos!

Cody, I could use a coupla’ hundred feet of fire hose.... if you decide to down size. I’m planning on making a skid unit for pasture fire protection.

Thank you for sharing your prep with us. I like the way you think, great job! One question - gas is traditionally hard to store for long periods of time. How long do you plan to keep your fuel in storage?

This was all aesthetically pleasing as well.

I have been slowly working my way towards a very small scale version of what you discussed in this video. One thing I have always been curious about though is how you cycle through the things you have stored. Mainly the fuel, but the food as well. I know cars and tractors are more tolerant than your smaller items like chainsaws and mowers when running older fuel . Just curious how you handle that. Thanks for sharing!

You have a nice garage everything in its place. Plenty of floor space. Thanks

Cody, how about a “Wranglerstar certified used equipment” site when you get rid of stuff 😃 !

That pallet racking that you suggested is a GREAT idea. Iven for a water tower such as you did. I'm looking at that stuff as a giant erector set. I'd bet there are a lot of things you can build with it, such as gates, scaffolding, car ports, pole barns, aircraft shelters, boat or aircraft construction jigging. You name it???

Re: freeze dried food and the freeze drier - very cool, very nice. Looking forward to your thoughts. I have some Mountain House and some MyPatriot. Taste good to me, beats the MRE’s and K-Rats that I had in the 80’s. Nice and light. Was considering some ThriveLife too. But the issue with bulk packaging is that once it’s open - you’ve got about 30 days to eat it from what I understand. So - #10 cans for an individual is quite impractical.

Looks amazing Cody! Great stuff!

I always thought that the term "hot water heater" was a misnomer as one doesn't normally heat hot water. Maybe if you look at it as the water heater is heating it until the water is hot . Idk, maybe it does make sense. At any rate, thank you Wranglerstar for all of your wisdom. I know how time consuming it is to make videos. I appreciate the effort

Nice! Right this min my powers out. For me things are just 100% fine. We have are solar as are back up power and LP for back up heat. Can't have a wood stove here. If I can do it on a income of $9,500 a year. Most can do it to they just have to willing to do it. With my small income in mind. What would be a chain saw I can buy used that will be a good one and about how much would you spend on it? I am good at working on things so if it needs stuff I can do that. But would like to get a nice saw. Thanks for helping. God Bless..

My shop has been in constant evolution over the past 10 years. How it's laid-out, organized, etc. Though fairly-well organized at this point, it's due for another re-arrangement.
