It’s once again time for my annual survival list column. One does not have to be a prophet to know that we are on the precipice of some potentially catastrophic–or at the very least, challenging–days.
Construction and repair of equipment and structures will no doubt be necessary in a TEOTWAWKI situation and welding is one of many useful skills that can contribute to survival.
