Just watched your vid., if you take the pills and wrap them in the self sticking plastic wrap, or vacuum seal them(I haven't tried this yet), you can then tape them to the inside walls of the tin. I have a weeks worth of my meds, and 6-8 ibu pills, and some some basic allergy meds. There is lots of space that is just not utilized well.
i made a survival can as well, just for fun, but i guess ill take it when ever i go hiking or whatever, never know. dont forget to take a satelite phone, lol
You're right, very much an EDC, but not really a mini survival tin is it? Not going to get you through those critical 72hrs. As long as it suits you, then who can talk, but I would suggest slightly modding it to encompass more serious scenarios, good luck.
I made a similar system but my tin too big so all its got is: A firesteel, cotton balls soaked in petroleum jelly, matches, linen cloth and a lighter.
just a suggestion on carrying pills. At your local drug store you can buy a package of small zip lock bags which are made for older people who need to carry collection of pills. I use these in mine and as holding small items in my edc.
This makes good sense as an "urban" EDC, all the little daily troubles. I would put together something different for rural or survival. This would be great in a desk drawer or glove box.
@GenerationMilitaires Thanks! It's been a long time since I got this, but I think you can get one at Walmart in the section where they make keys. Another good source is EDCdepot(dot)com. They give way a similar item with every order.
Very good for your average days needs. People this is for something you will use in every day life not for surviving the wilderness with nothing except this pack.
@collectorbob810 Thanks. This kit is intended for surviving the rigors of every day life, not for playing Survivorman for a month. I'd bring a LOT more than an Altoids tin for that.
@Daninja42 The main thing for me is the medical supplies. I find myself using this all the time. I have an EDC keychain video as well. Thanks for watching.
I wouldnt put paper on the bottom of the Tin as you cant use it to boil water anymore...though I have never tried to use the tin on a flame and maybe I shouldnt lol...
@GunsKnivesSurvival not intended use shouldnt be in your vocabulary lol...If im desperate Im sticking a piece of tinfoil underneath that tin and trying to boil water after the purification tabs run out. Then again maybe I will die of some sort of metal toxins in the water and you are right...never can tell til you try.
@MegaPokerMon Right on. In my actual pack that I take for outdoor adventure, I keep a small metal mess set. This is just for taking to work, etc. Take care.
@AltairDhauglu I really do take this just about everywhere I go. It's also important to restock the itmes as you use them so you don't run out of bandages or medications. Thanks for watching!
@megalizardfreak I thought about doing a contest where I give one away, but without the lighter and medicine (I wouldn't ship those, obviously) it might be kind of lame. I'm glad you like it, I had to use it last night when I cut myself with my Cold Steel Recon 1.
you may have already found a better idea for your aspirin but, my wife buys beads in small 6 inch tube. They can be cut down to any size, are light weight and water tight.
@woodturningjohn That's a good idea. I've been using a "spy capsule" from EDCdept(dot)com. It's perfect for this kind of thing. I have a video on it. Thanks!
@ihoppy I actually started doing that with my aspirin INSIDE the little silver pill bottle to segregate two different kinds of pills. Thanks for the comment.
I like it very cool and down to earth and perfect for everyday carry
