So to keep us safe, Homeland Security released a report called, The Radical Right-Wing Extremists Are Coming to Kill You, or something like that. While it provides no actual evidence of domestic right-wing terror, believe me, I know terrorists when I see one. Why, some of my best friends are...

For future generations, this legacy we gave. In this, the land of the free and home of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you we hoped you'd always keep. But tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. In this, the land of the free and home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent. Your children must attend a school that doesn't educate. And your Christian values can't be taught according to the state. You read about the current news in a regulated press and you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold you trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame You've taken Satan's number You've traded in your name You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seize the family farm and keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit doctors so their children won't be born. Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you will fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? Oh, sons of the Republic, arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land, preserve our great Republic and each God given right, and pray to God to keep the torch of freedom burning bright. As I awoke, he vanished in the mist for whence he came. His words were true, we are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now his parents trampled each God-given right. We only watch him tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. If he stood by your bedside in a dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he'd fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave? Is this still the land of the free? Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. This is the evening intelligence report. I'm Mark Quirky. And a better knife? One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines in occupied territories. Central, west, southeast, and north. Well ladies and gentlemen you were listening to us on libertytreeradio.4mg.com, pbn.4mg.com, and we are on live 365. Then go to Liberty Tree Radio. We are also on a myriad of reflector stations. We want to say thank you all of our friends for doing that. And we have alternate archives established in many locations, actually many more than we could probably imagine, whereby you can listen to programming that may have come up today or earlier in the week. So if you get a chance, check out the different reflectors and see how they work for you. You might find that one works a little better than the other. It may be even better than the LTR site, guys. It's just a matter of your system, where you're located, what kind of connect you have, etc. So be creative and experiment. Anyway, it is... A fantastic day here, beautiful day outside. And as you know, we're on the alternate systems, both east and west of Mississippi, along with southern central Alaska. We're on the Hallmark network on the eastern seaboard, top of Maine, bottom of Florida. Then across the arc of the Gulf of Mexico, all the way to Texas. From Texas, we bounce all the way up to Nebraska. And from there, around to the third of Wyoming. Hi, guys. and then across Iowa, we'll wave as we jump over Iowa. We can still hear them by the FM stations and AM stations that are there. And then back over to the Blue Ridge, the Smokies for the Golden Spike Project, which is right there in place, room up and online and cooking. It is a beautiful blue. afternoon to evening right now bk but what is the day today sir it is twenty seven august two thousand it is friday it is the last hour of the day and the week for the intelligence report and that makes this quarter masters corner and that means it's the end of the week but quartermaster we're making sure that the militia that's on the ground have the votes means bibles The bedrolls, the buns, the you name it everything with the B Actually we could probably start with A and then you work your way to Z Everything in between quartermaster has to deal with it all. We got to keep you fed We're gonna make sure we kept the heat keep the heat on so to speak and that's a subject we'll be on tonight by the way and Many other things that need to be taken care of including to help keeping you keep you breathing. There's a B word All but maybe sounding a little like Darth Vader. Well, that's cool. At least you're still sounding some people won't be uh... technologies and expertise the idea is that we come up with a solution we have an idea a we throw it out there if you think you've got a better one who run with that ball i wouldn't have a problem at all but hopefully we can give you some ideas anyway became one of the upper first person keeping please okay well this is going to be a uh... busy evening so let's jump right into that uh... let's say we have and A special going on right now, we have mentioned this previously when it happened previously. Honeyville Grain is a purveyor of dried foods, dried grains, a variety of items. They have canned cocoa, they have dried potato and canned, lots of number 10 cans of things, some bulk items, etc. They are doing their 10% off promotion everything in your card from august twenty six through august thirty ten percent off everything in the shopping cart the coupon code you need to know is all capital letters that is he'd wave h e a t w a v e so they are once again having their ten percent off they have a few items in the clearance page i didn't get terribly excited over those In my opinion, their flagship product is the powdered whole egg. They have that in a bulk pack that is just a plastic bag in a cardboard box for shipping. You will need to repackage it, but they offer that at 50 pounds for $200. If that's a little bit much for you, find a buddy and split it. It doesn't have to be split 50-50. You can even do it 60-40 or whatever you see fit. But that is 50 pounds of powdered egg for $200 regular price. They are offering a 10% off. That drops it to $180. Remember that everything they ship They ship at a flat rate. I think that's only the lower 48. They ship flat rate is about $4.50 for your entire order. So that is a very worthwhile offer to exploit. If you can swing it and if you do not already have bushels and tons of powdered egg, definitely get some of that. Over. Go ahead and review that top to bottom for everybody listening and slow down a little bit because I know people are going to be interested in that, especially those that have large formations and retreats with a lot of people showing up. You bet. The vendor is Honeyvillegrain.com. Honey, H-O-N-E-Y, V-I-L-L-E, Grain, G-R-A-I-N dot com. Honeyvillegrain.com. and the item that I call out is their bulk powdered egg. You might want to wander around the site and see whether other things tweak your interest. The coupon code you want to know is all capital letters. HeatWave. HeatWave. All in caps is your coupon code. and that gives you 10% off everything in your shopping cart. Not just things on clearance, not just egg, not just this, that or the other thing. Everything in your shopping cart, 10% off with the coupon code, HEATWAVE. And bear in mind that these guys routinely charge about $4.50 or so per order for shipping. I think that's a lower 48, but it is a very modest shipping cost as well. The bigger your order, the thinner that spreads out. So that is honeyvillegrain.com. 10% off, coupon code HEATWAVE. And my advice is take a look at the bulk whole powdered egg. 50 pounds for $200, take off 10% is $180, and you're good to go. Go ahead. As a matter of fact, a lot of people who use this for cooking know that we're using this to add protein to the inventory, especially when you're looking at feeding a lot of people. My example is you're looking at anywhere from 20 to 30 to 50 people. Guys, it does not take long to go through a lot of food, even rationing it out. You're looking at having to put so many boots into the table there and keeping them satisfied. So this is a good food diversifier. There's a lot more you can do with it. You can cook more in other categories. You'll be enhancing flavor and improving overall calorie and nutrient content. Once they're open, just start using them. Eggs for breakfast, I don't know, everybody says that's kind of a luxury, and it is. And that really is a plus plus. Psychologically it is. This sounds weird, but psychologically, it's one of those things where it's like, man, you mean you had powdered eggs? Even if you had powdered eggs, biscuits, and canned bacon, which by the way you can get, or slivers of Spam fried. Anybody remember that? Hey, there's a World War II special. And you know what, Robert, a little bit of garnishment, and you can fool a lot of people, so to speak. Now the other option, some of that cheap hash brown, dried hash browns that come in the one gallon containers or the multi-can containers, whatever you got. Wow, you're looking like a restaurant, except that it's a special high point meal helping to keep people up and online, plugged in and focused. It kind of creates some, well you might want to call it normalcy in reality. You might be eating better when you cook them this way or feed them this way than the way they've normally been eating. So, this is a plus-plus all the way around. There's a lot of things you can do with this. You take all the other foodstuffs you have and you can be very, very creative. It helps it change things up. Go ahead, BK, please. Okay, there is some talk coming out of the feds of banning all lead-based ammunition. Guys, you may or may not want to rush out to your local vendor and be picking up some of this stuff. It might not be a bad idea. But with that in mind, I am going to repeat the reminder that we like to hit from time to time. Make sure that you're gathering up every used wheel weight you can get. Throw a couple of plastic buckets in your trunk or the back of your truck or whatever the case may be. Stop whenever you see a tire shop, a brake shop, a general repair shop. grab those used wheel weights. Be a little bit vague in your terminology. Ask them, you know, do you suppose I could get your used wheel weights or something like that. They might want to be paid for them. If so, do not pay more than $20 for a whole bucket full. A whole bucket full is 150 pounds. You will not be able to lift it. However, bear in mind that they are of different composition. Most of them will still be lead antimony. Alloys, some will be zinc. You will want to sort those before you ever throw them in the melting pot. If we do run out of lead, it is not feasible to make bullets out of zinc, too. So that metal is still of value. And zinc is also pretty much the original pot metal. There are a lot of things you can make out of pot metal. We don't think much of it because sometimes things break. but it is a very useful material. I'll throw out another concept. Don't throw away your pennies. Don't worry about whether they're copper pennies or zinc pennies. Both metals are useful. Here's a little bit of arithmetic. A zinc penny weighs 2.5 grams. That's one of the ways you can tell the difference between a zinc penny and a copper penny. A copper penny weighs 3.1 grams of copper. A zinc penny is 2.5 grams of zinc. With a good scale, you can sort those apart much more effectively than you can by eyeball. 2.5 grams translates to 38.5 grams. Let's just think about that and look at two of those pennies in your hands and say, well gee, that's about 60 grains more or less. Or 65 or 70 after a little bit of wastage. What can we do with 60 or 65 grains of something? What can we do with 123 grains? What can we do with 230 grains? right so uh... don't throw away any of your pennies when you get pennies in change just Throw them in the jelly jar at the end of the day and spend those nickels and dimes and quarters again and save up the pennies. That is raw metal. It is refined. It is worth more than the penny of value that you are sidelining into a jar. You of course would not do anything illicit while the regime remains in power. But you can certainly put them in a jar. So that's my comment on pennies. Save your pennies and keep visiting the repair shops and the break shops and so on and collect those wheel weights. They do not require any special storage. You don't have to process them now. You can do it later. But you need that metal. And the feds are working very, very hard at trying to deny you any access to lead in any way, shape or form. Sideline it and stack it up now while you can. Go ahead. Again, there are other metals that can be used, there are other extrusion processes that can be used. One of the things I love is Mr. Hardware is your friend. There are a lot of other materials that are sitting there in the hardware that will help you to make jackets, help you to create cups for casting. It doesn't have to be For instance, copper, although you can get copper pretty cheap for the moment, that will continue to rise as there are two things. Your value of your currency is going down and the cost of materials will go up as the Chinese charge more for what junk they are producing. That means that a lot of stuff you'd normally pick up for little or nothing is not going to be as cheap as you like. Remember, pieces of sheet metal, the same kind of pop metal. You can get zinc in different forms or thin sheet metal in different forms. If need be, we can create cookie cutters and actually then extrude your own jackets from other materials. There's a lot of different tricks out there that will work. Copper is still obviously the cheapest solution. The biggest thing now is the metal moths are grabbing everything, guys, so you've got to be faster than they are. It sounds weird, but one place to watch, even today, even right now, here it is. Oh, I think the last lead pipes were probably installed maybe in the 20s, okay, as far as at the good old University of Michigan, but institutions where there's, you know, where cities, where there's old buildings. Lead pipe for drain and lead pipe for supply are still out there in different complexes and buildings. They're just stuck behind water chases, sometimes abandoned in place. Sometimes, used with just beer, they never fail, so nobody's ever had to work on them. And that's a fact, that's an honest fact. So, all of a sudden, somebody does a major renovation, they change all the plumbing in a building, not as often now as they used to. Most of it would be people ransacking and tearing the walls out of buildings and not knowing what they're looking at, and then they'll gut them out the rest of the way. Although, usually the contractor, when he feels that pipe, he'll know what it is. But if you're lucky and you see stuff laying around, watch for lead pipe. You'll see it in many, many different girths and sizes. And this is high-end lead. This is very high-quality material. Yeah, lead pipe is a real score. If you see somebody just flinging that off in a pile someplace, you snatch that up. Exactly. And so you, or it's not copper. It's not, you know, of course, now people are becoming metal casters. People are always wondering, you know, they ask us, how are we dealing gold and silver? Hey, come on, guys. People are figuring out pot metal nowadays. all that and all that will involve copper although the crack is really don't care they just see it as metal in another twenty dollar hit but there are a lot of other people out there who are getting better at the trade uh... with regard to lead everything should be saved and let's not forget something else uh... guys we can mine old impact areas if you know there's no rifle range or somebody was shooting for the last twenty thirty and forty years but nobody ever moved the berms and there's a lot where they've been firing so often into the hill Let me tell you what's laying at the bottom of that rut and in the sand sitting there. If you have gravel pits and mined out quarries and that kind of stuff in your area, if you scuff around in the dirt and you find a few clay pigeons, you can be sure that there's been a fair amount of firearms activity of all sorts. That's right. And you look around for the appropriate places, the low spots. where things will settle or the big piles of dirt or what not. Get your metal detector out there if you've got one and sniff around that way that's quicker than using a shovel. Figure out where things are you could be surprised what you might find. And remember that especially if who's used for sighting in especially at the deer season opening before deer season. Up here in Michigan you can only use shotgun below Lansing. There is a big chunk of lead times however many people used out there to test their weapons, sight them in, get a little feel for the firearm, and then they put it back in the sock and took it out and went to hunt Bambi. Well, that's a lot of one ounce slugs out there, guys. Just one ounce slugs, just think about it. Plus all the rifle rounds, etc., etc., and then God knows how many pistol. and a lot of forty four lot forty five lot of three fifty seven hundred fifty eight grain uh... you know one cutter some i want cutter not one cutter with a hundred forty a green for the water either way that the level that so start thinking that way because we're gonna be excavating and reclaiming and reusing very very quickly we've been doing that for a long time go ahead and we have a lot more sir okay one more bargain before we get to the big feature item of the evening Every once in a while these guys come up with a real zinger and they have done it this time. The Swiss produce gas mask filters in the 40mm thread standard. That's the standard NATO 40mm thread. They package these filters in what we sometimes call Easter eggs or the Egg McMuffins or the Hockey Puck package or the Road Apple package, whatever you want to call them. They are an excellent two-half plastic shell. This is really a terrific packaging mechanism. They produce excellent filters. Sportsman's Guide is offering 20 of these Swiss filters for $25. Now, they are not a free shipping outfit. By the time you add shipping and insurance, one package of those will probably end up costing you $35. Even so, 20 of those filters for $35 is a bargain and not to be missed. This is a no-brainer, guys. Even if you are not up to speed on gas mask yachting, you know, Go punish yourself if not. Get these filters. These are useful filters. Even if you go with the 60mm standard, the adapters will let you use these filters or somebody else will need the 40mm filters. Nobody can touch the quality of the Swiss filters. They are as good as anybody else's and at $20 of these for $25 plus shipping. That is an excellent price. Grab them all you can and clean these guys out. Sportsmen's Guide dot com. Once again, Sportsmen's Guide dot com. A lot of their stuff I think is a little bit overpriced, but every once in a while they really come out with a bargain and this is one of them. Twenty Swiss filters in the Easter egg packaging for $25 plus shipping, even if you're not one of their members. Go ahead. Excellent. And again, that is one of the best prices right now. However they made a deal on those. we'll find out more actually about where they came from because it was only places they could have come from but they do you want to use and that's always the case with uh... with surplus uh... they do limited quantities they may mean it or they may be trying to figure out what are they to attend container load for the guys who knows what their their up to it but are clean them out the this is uh... this is a bargain you probably will not see again Again, for a lot of people that didn't pick up the extra filters for the 40mm or for their 60mm fin with the adapters, guys, if you got the adapters, the 40mm will run right on your mask. So there's another thing to think about. This gives you spare filters for a reasonable price. One last thing from this direction before we go, because I know we've got a long subject here. I want to hit it all and make sure you cover it completely. Romanian SKS's. Now, if you really need an SKS, uh... in surplus uh... got a shipment of these men and they just recently just came out remaining s k s these are the uh... already with says right here which were many a model fifty six s k s seven point sixty by thirty nine seventy medic rifles actually their car beans manufactured by the remaining in court uh... kuger factory from nineteen fifty six nineteen sixty two these nice rifles are in very good plus condition and have only minor metal finish and would stock where features a chrome line barrel. That's the big plus right there. Chrome line barrel and 10 round integral magazine. While supplies last, does not include a cleaning rod. They stole the cleaning rods again, BK. I don't know what it is, but something about that guy, I see a cleaning rod and they've been stealing them. Or they've been taking them off the rifles. Now classic arms has cleaning rods, so you go there. But for the S-CAS they want $299.95. Remember that's under $300.00. Yes, I know for about $78.00 to $80.00 more you get an AK. So it's up to you if you are committed to the SKS and you like them, which I do like the performance of the SKS. These are beautiful rifles, Romanian. There are some excellent images, so go to AIMS, Surplus, aim surplus dot com a i m s u r p l u s dot com before members eight eight eight seven four eight five two five two that eight eight eight seven four eight five two five two that eight eight eight seven four eight five two five two and if you can look the uh... yeah i think this quick to the new items i believe and or you can go to rifles and it will take you through the listing there and you will see the SKS listed. Also covered under an O3 as an O3 curio and relic. Obviously requires an FFL so it has to have some paper on it, that's the only problem with it. But it looks to be pretty decent shape. Again, chrome bore is the big thing. That's a forgiving rifle. Especially with all the odd ammunition you are going to be running into in 7.62x39. Anyway, let's carry on because I know you have a big block of info, we want to get it all out there. All right, summer is breaking and it's not yet completely gone in every trace, but it is beginning to break. We are not yet into autumn. Once we get further into the cold weather, people are going to start thinking about the topic. How do we stay warm and how do we take care of this when the infrastructure has broken? Well, once it's getting cold, it's getting a little bit late to be thinking about that. You can do some things, but a little bit of lead time is always a good thing. So I thought I would bring this topic up now while there is some lead time and people can think about this and maybe take some action and do a couple of projects. There has been some effort put into thought processes by some of the do-gooders off in the Pacific Northwest. Their intention is to try to improve the lot of African villagers. And as a result, they have come up with a technology that may be of interest to us. Get out your pencils and paper or your web browser or whatnot, because we're going to refer to a number of tiny URLs as we go through this stuff. So I'm just giving you a little bit of warning. Get that open or get your pencil out, because we're going to go through these tiniest and you're going to want to watch them later. Specifically, the first tiny that we are going to refer you to is one in which some people near a gorilla preserve are concerned about the fact that the locals tend to produce charcoal on an industrial basis for cooking fires because there's not the infrastructure for electricity or natural gas or whatever the case is. People use charcoal. for their cooking fires. That's a very wasteful process. People are cutting down all the forests and building great big heaps of fires, covering them with dirt, smoldering them for days, burning off half the calories, making the charcoal, and then selling that as fuel. What if we did something a little less wasteful, these guys thought. So they came up with what's actually a useful technology. What this is is a large mechanical wooden press. It is a lever-operated press. It is double leverage, double action, so that you get a very high force multiplier involved. And it is a technique with a cylindrical mold and a piston and so on, by which these people can take sawdust and a little bit of paper because that helps bind these things. Smoosh it all together with a lot of water and make what amounts to sawdust oatmeal. Pack it into a cylinder and compress it. And what they end up with as a result is a compressed briquette of biomass fuels. They can dry it in the sun and they end up with a donut-shaped which is a very, very convenient and useful fuel source without any charcoal being produced. So the first tiny URL I'm going to point you at is tinyurl.com slash NovemberLima3EcoZuluRomeo. This is NovemberLima3EcoZuluRomeo. One last time, tinyurl.com slash nl3ezr. Now this is a, these are all YouTubes, or almost all YouTubes, demonstrating start to finish the whole process of pushing up the material packing it into the little cylinder mold positioning that in the press squeezing all water out of it and then popping them out of the mold using the separators that shorten the cylinders to a couple of inches long spreading them out in the sun letting them dry. This is very interesting. It's a five, seven, eight minute video or some sort. that shows this entire process to some degree. You can see how the press operates. It is two hinges, double action. It's a very nice, simple design. Anybody with the slightest amount of carpentry skills could put together a press similar to this one. and any adult should be able to operate it. You can sort of think about the process involved and figure if you have one person working, you could sort of do this. If you have three, four, five people working, you could find ways for each person to do part of it to really crank through this process. You'd need only one adult on the lever. And all the rest of the little hands could be kids even. wounded older folks anybody could assist with most of the steps of this process and produce these cylindrical donut shaped brick cats as demonstrated in the video now and the additional steps will get into some elaborations and variations and other supplemental techniques. Do you have any comments to make on that first video? very simple very straightforward right i would even recommend using pipe nipples as large uh... fasteners rather than fake careful you'll get more sure strength out of those uh... but whatever you do uh... the hardware store or even the scrap pile can produce most of the materials you need for one of these uh... large style double action uh... we can take that technique and we can elaborate it further we have another tiny you are all coming up so open a new browser window if you like the new tiny you are pal uh... point to a video in which a fellow demonstrates alternate designs of these press He has some that are simple one-stage presses. I'm not particularly impressed by them, no pun intended. But he also has smaller double-stage presses. He has one that folds over and doubles up the width of the press. It accomplishes pretty much the same thing in a smaller footprint. That tiny URL is tinyurl.com slash 237DL. That is 237 Delta Lima 9 Foxtrot. One last time, tinyurl.com slash 237 Delta Lima 9 Foxtrot. And what he's demonstrating there is that there are a lot of variations you can do on this particular technique. You can use PVC pipe for the mold. You can make the molds out of flat pieces of wood if you want to make a rectangular brick at things of this sort. I like the cylindrical ones. There's a certain elegance to that. Schedule 40 PVC may be heavy enough, but I think no problem whatsoever with using the steel pipe if you can get a piece of it, and so on like that. Now, if you take a look at those videos you will get the idea and you can probably cobble together your own press just from seeing it but if you want canned dimensions for some of these things there is a site that's got some rather explicit plans there some people like to touch every detail and some like to wing it tiny URL number three is to bravo eight november fox trot 1-B-8-N-F-B-X Now, that one provides specific plans. You may or may not need those plans. I think it's a little bit silly to build something to exactly this many centimeters and exactly that many centimeters. Just look at the videos and get the idea and see how they're doing it. But some people like all of the detail. One application of these is to use them as a general fuel. I would say that you can use these briquettes in anything, any stove, furnace, etc., that's designed for wood. You should be able to pile these guys up in there and use them in that appliance. There is a very lightweight, rather elegant little of a fellow produced, he calls it the Holy Rocket Stove. H-O-L-E-Y is a little bit of a pun. So, there is a tiny of a fellow demonstrating his so-called Holy Rocket Stove and he designed this to accept these briquettes directly as fuel. This is tinyurl.com slash two. Foxtrot, Oscar Zulu, four, Romeo Charlie. That is tinyurl.com slash 2, FoxTron, Oscar Zulu, 4, Romeo Charlie. One last time, tinyurl.com slash 2, F-O-Z, 4, RC. This is a fellow demonstrating his so-called Holy Rocket Stove. It is an L-shaped stove made of basically Basically, I would call it a cast refractory. Somebody else might just call it concrete. It is designed to let you slide one of these little donut fuel devices into the front and do a quite remarkable and efficient job of providing you with a cooking flame. A next URL is supplemental to that. This is a Making of the Holy Rocket Stove and probably not as important as any of the other URLs. Here's a tinyurl.com. Making the Holy Rocket Stove. This is 2, Alpha Charlie, Sierra Whiskey, Echo 4. That is tinyurl.com slash 2, A, C, S, W, E, 4. One last time, tinyurl.com slash two, Alpha Charlie, Sierra Whiskey, Echo 4. That is making of the Holy Rocket stuff. Now, there is one major flaw in my opinion of the first of the videos that we showed you. That is the one made by the people nearby the Gorilla Preserve. and that is more in omission than commission if you look at the very first portions of that video they will show you a bunch of the village women making up the oatmeal goo they're starting out with thought out and some paper and they proceed to just turn this stuff with their hands in a plastic and that has to be an incredibly labor-intensive activity And that will be, in my opinion, the choke point of this sort of operation. So how do we get around that? Well, I have a thought on that. But first let's make a little digression. If you have access to sawdust in bulk, this is a great technique. There are people who are nearby saw mills and so on and they can just fill up the pickup truck full of sawdust either for free or very close to it. Sawdust after a while gets to be an inconvenient waste product for a saw mill. This technique is useful for all sorts of other biomass. If you are in a rice growing area then rice hulls are a waste product. and those also can be used that is not a description of most areas of the united states so if you are fortunate enough to be nearby a sawmill that's great if you happen by some work to be nearby a crane threshing operation and you can get we have to write about that that are you can use those uh... but what would most of people and uh... in the continental northern uh... emissary uh... actually well what is the season that approaching we call it autumn but the casual uh... word for it is yeah and what is it that's falling lots of movies which are good for all kinds of things anybody in the vicinity of uh... uh... the figure three is going to be treated to times of available free fuel within a few weeks. It's going to be all over the place. People are paying other people to rake it up and haul it away. This stuff works just fine as biomass. If you can sweep that stuff up in an efficient fashion and puree it and turn it into glop, you can press the briquettes out of this stuff. Now, that has got to be an incredibly labor-intensive process if you use a basin and a bunch of fingers or even a mallet or hatchet or something along those lines. So, let's come up with a more efficient method of doing that. To do that, I am going to steal a leaf, no pun intended, well, sort of intended, from an entirely different project. I have very shortly, I will tell you, a tiny URL that a fellow uses to demonstrate making something called Paper Crete. Now, Paper Crete is an interesting little twist on the low-tech technologies. Paper Crete is a building material consisting largely of scrap newspaper or other scrap paper mixed with portland cement and thoroughly mixed to the point where it becomes curate and then it is routinely poured into rectangular mold and formed into blocks that are created very much like cinder blocks They do not have a great deal of structural strength, but they are a terrific insulator and especially useful in the desert areas. I'm not sure how well they hold up in more temperate climates where they're exposed to a lot of rain, but they are very neat technology for construction for the desert. This guy put together a video demonstrating what he calls a toe mixer. And this is his technology for making paper crete. And I think that this is a beautiful technology to adapt for our purpose for making the briquette oatmeal fly. So this tiny URL is tinyurl.com slash 285 NovemberGolf4Charlie. This is tinyurl.com. slash two eight five november call one last time tiny you are all dot com slash two eight five g four now what uh... this trick that he came up with is quite clever what he does is he takes an automotive differential It doesn't matter what brand. It doesn't have to be a big huge truck differential. It can be any little automobile you want. And he makes it into a trailer, a three point trailer with the two wheels of course touching the ground and a tongue attached to a vehicle's trailer hitch. He rotates the differential so that what was the drive shaft is pointing straight up. He builds a platform on it, mounts a livestock watering trough, or we would call it a wash basin or something similar, a 200 gallon cylinder that you can obtain in any agricultural area, and runs the drive shaft up through the bottom and attaches what amounts to a lawnmower blade to it. So he has created a 200 gallon blender. with a great big lawnmower blade in the bottom. And when you drive down the road towing this thing along, the rotation of the tires rotates what was originally the drive shaft spins the lawnmower blade and operates your 200 gallon blender. And of course you need to have a valve at the bottom for dumping this stuff out conveniently and you want to have a cover on the top because it will slosh around a great deal. but he can puree a load of paper crete and i would say you could do just the same thing with leaves and newspaper uh... in two minutes at five miles per hour it is that efficient in that Now, depending on the gearing ratio of the differential you use, it may be a little faster, a little slower. You might want to go faster or go slower. You might want to go around the block twice. But whatever the case is, in a very few minutes, you can, using your existing vehicle, anything with a trailer hatch, load this thing up with a bunch of leaves or whatever other biomass. some newspaper or cardboard or other paper waste water and zip around a block a couple of times and you have pureed a load of this stuff. Then you have the raw material to pour into your press and go ahead and make your briquettes. Now if you're fortunate enough to be right next to a sawmill that produces scraps, I would say don't bother. Go ahead and gather those up as fuel. But if you are like most of us, not necessarily positioned that well in that spot, but within a range of large numbers of deciduous trees, each one I'm dropping, who knows what, a couple hundred pounds of potential fuel for you? You don't even have to cut down a tree. All you have to do is gather this stuff up and process it in this fashion. You need two pieces of equipment. Basically, you need to press that the first few videos showed you. that you can construct yourself. To do it efficiently, I think it would be wise to put together one of these toe mixers. Of course, many people could use one toe mixer. They're so quick. uh... you could uh... use kiddie pool for the intermediate dumping ground up run a few batches that fill up a kiddie pool and then drag the tome mixer off to your buddy's place ten miles away in karaoke believe that he's gathered up you know he can go to work on those minutes of the tome mixer off to somebody else they do it thought it's a part Figure out variations for yourself, what sort of efficiencies you want to add, what sort of variations you want to do. But I think that these two technologies, the briquette press and the toe mixer, as described in these videos, are a very interesting technology. Quite simple, really. A little bit of building involved. I brought it out at this point to give you a little bit of lead time before autumn arrives. But I think this is an available technology that we could use to very good effect. So questions or comments? I actually got through this quicker than I planned. Well, the big thing here is, again, for everybody listening, volume. We're looking at being able to make something that you can then store. using a number of different canisters, something I mentioned the other day here if you wanted to deploy these things and put them in a place where they'll be out of the snow but still exposed to a degree in a cache or a wood bin or whatever you want to do guys, consider the fact that there's tons and tons of rusting or slightly rusty or usually not pretty cookie tins that people get rid of. In many cases not rusty even, they've got piles of cookie tins, cracker tins, whatever. You can take these, stick them inside that with a sealed pack of matches, other fires, all kinds of other things. Whatever, be creative. I wouldn't, in fact, you've got little donut holes. I'd be putting stuff inside the donut holes for storage. And you've got yourself a fire kit, a wood burning, a burning kit for actually keeping somebody able to eat, able to eat, able to sleep, maintain comfort. This is something we'll look at from one direction. The other thing is, One gallon plastic containers. Five gallon paint pails with paint lids that are yucky. In other words, I can't use it for food grade because it had paint in it and it's got some stuff stuck here. It's not perfect, but it looks fine. put a plastic bag inside the thing stuff as many of these things in there on the top make up a pack with one of those candles those cookie cans we were talking about with some fire starter technology lots of matches lots of you know there was a dollar store box of matches or you know bundle of two or three you know not strike anywhere but hardwood matches of box of uh... pack matches from the grocery store or the dollar store preferably get a nicer box of the regular book matches, the small paper matches. This gives you a number of different options. You've got fire starting capability, you have heat heat potential here. The only thing you have to do is come up with a stove system as we were talking about. There's a number of different options there too. Hobo stove would work with these things. There are a number of ways these things can be used. They can be actually used in a smaller, I wouldn't necessarily put them in a big big fireplace, but they can be used in either a cooker, a kiln type cooker, whatever you can come up with that's creative. Bear in mind that you do not necessarily have to stick slavishly to their large toroid design. Yeah, a hole up the middle helps them dry faster and is very useful for cooking purposes if you're using a large stove. but if you are pressing these things in smaller diameter you could probably dispose of the hole up the middle and just extrude these as cylinders of arbitrary length. That might be a better shape if you wanted to store them in smaller containers such as five gallon pails or something along those lines. Now, treat this almost like a stove pellet. It wouldn't be a quarter of an inch in diameter, but you could produce these things in 1 1.5 inch diameters with no hole in the center if you wanted to. Break them off every 2 inches or break them off every 12 inches, depending on what you think your primary combustion method is. If you produce sticks that are the width of your wrist, and 12 inches long or 14 inches long or whatnot, you can load those up in wood stoves. If you wanted to make them three or four inches long, then you could store them in buckets or containers or thin pails, et cetera, for use in almost any sort of barbecue grill or small stove or what have you. You can vary the dimensions in both diameter and in length. It suits your purposes. You don't have to follow the design demonstrated in any sort of slavish fashion. You can make variations and permutations on this as you see fit. Very good. And again, guys, the idea here is solutions to the problem, especially of heating fuel systems that are not dangerous, or I should say not a threat as far as accidents happening or mistakes being made. It's about as simple as it gets. You're using, you know, for people saying, I don't have any money. Non-strategic materials was built by design vine is being used by poor people all around the planet. We can come up with variations on the theme, make it work just fine for our purposes. And we end up with a whole lot of junk turned into something that will be useful. There's no competition for the material. You can stack it up in heaps, you could stack in vertical piles so that it's easy to see if something has gotten into it. You can do whatever you like. And keeping the rain off is the one major consideration. And you go from there. It does not require a high pressure cylinder like propane does. That's a fuel you can store, but it requires more tech to store it. This is basically just something that you can heap up and then proceed to use in one or a hundred locations as you see fit. Perfect solution. Again, debris and waste. We've had people tell us, what are we going to do about heat or what are we going to do about fuel for fill in the blank. Well, there's a solution guys. Of course there is a word attached that most people don't like. W-O-R-K. Well, besides if one person or one person in his buddy, for instance, are mechanically inclined, have arc welders and so on, I wanted to put together a tow mixer of this sort. That could serve probably 20 or 30 other people that are running presses. So if you have any sort of community effort, if you have allies in a widely scattered area, just run that toe mixer around. Spend an afternoon at one place, and then morning at the next place, and that afternoon at the next place. All of you can benefit from the toe mixer, and then proceed with all of the pureed goo that you heaped up. You don't have to, everybody do the same thing. You can do one of those and share that around. Exactly. Before we go, we are at the top. One more thing, I'm going to shift directions here only because I didn't see this before, BK. Russian 7.62 ball ammunition available in the 168 grain FMJ available through Collectors. I was going to say Collectors Army, but it's not ClassicArms.US. 99.95 for 440 rounds. Not bad in this day and age. $100 as a fam can. Yeah, that's fair nowadays. RUS-54R is the number. RUS-54R is the number. 99.95, that's classic arms.us, another solution for the NAGOT ammunition. Their phone number is 7046840650. Again, 704-684-0650 classicarms.us. Easy to spot because you'll have a centurion, a Roman centurion, holding an AK-47. Kind of a unique combination of historical images. Creative anachronism. He has a what? He's got an AK. Don't get any closer. Stay 300 yards out at least. That way he can't hurt you quite as much. But I've got armor. Yeah, you'll find out how well that works in a minute. He'll still hurt at 300. Yeah, ping, ping, ping, ping, ow, ow. Anyway, we are at the top. We should hear the music any moment now, because we got Dutch coming up replacing us here on the air. It's been a pretty busy week, and there we are. So, BK, thank you very much, sir. You're welcome. God bless the Republic. Death with a new world order. We shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen. The Empire is on the run. We and our solid fuel are on the march, both day and night. We'll keep them warm, we'll keep them fed, and we'll make sure that they're able to continue to process the food we put in storage. Quartermaster, your job, keep the militia running, keep them moving down the road, moving to victory. Thank you, BK. You're welcome. He's from the pulpit. If you voted for Reagan, you need to repent. If you voted for Bush, you need to repent. Yeah, thank you Stacey. So, but yeah, go to libertytreeradio.4mg.com and go to arizonamalicia.net and market. Book market. Great resources. Lou's put up all those other websites where you can get the manuals. Go to the forum. I haven't pushed the forum yet. Lou, you got to type the forum in there. And don't worry if you're small. I don't care if it's two or three of you. Fellowship together in the Lord and He will make you mighty. Strength doesn't come from our flesh and bone. It comes from our faith in the Lord and doing what we got to do for Him. So, I mean, if all you have... It's like I remember during the Northridge quake. I get into this neighborhood, everything's falling down, I'm doing a windshield damage assessment survey. And I see all these people on one house, there's like every other house is knocked down, they're the dingbat construction. Those of you that don't live in California, we call it dingbat construction, where they build an apartment up over the garage and it's on metal pipes and then when it shakes it just falls down. And we had about 38 deaths and most of those were in dingbat construction from the Northridge quake. There's all these people around this one house. I want to go see what's going on there, and there's one big rather large black lady And she's got a Bible on her lap She's reading from the Bible and she's reading from the community emergency response team manual telling people what to do They never met before they never had a Bible study with this lady and people I talked to said they just would wave at her She's an it was an interracial You know neighborhood they weren't a rich neighborhood, but they weren't a ghetto and All this lady did is she'd read from the Bible. Then they'd say, you know, the first thing she did was tell them to turn off all the gas and utilities and everything. Then she started, and all, she never got out from her chair, but she had taken the time to go online because she was a Christian to begin with and she wanted to do right by her neighbors. She studied the CERT team stuff online by herself. I can't remember her name. Wasn't it like a... Shirley Licker or something? No, I'm just kidding. But she, I recommended her for a state, the state citizens' medal, but she never got it. Because she wasn't sanctioned by anybody, she wasn't associated with anybody, but she took care of her whole neighborhood. We don't know how many lives she saved, only the Lord knows, because she got her people squared away in her neighborhood and did the right thing. At the very least, if that's all you're going to do, fine. But base it first in the Bible. I love it. When I was in a big old, you know, those big white, probably, I don't know, probably a Baptist or AME or something. Big, huge white Bible to picture Jesus on the front. You know, almost like the Catholic ones. If you're just reading from that. She was just going okay, and so the Lord said this and then she'd go back and tell you know people what do we do now? What do we do now? Well, here's what we need to do We need to round up all the water you need to drain all the water out of your water heaters. You do all the you know It was just great. You know and she had people setting up tents and everything That's all it takes folks a little bit of preparation and a whole lot of faith and abiding in the Lord's Word And you can start a militia Malicious are starting the Bible. Remember when Abraham was looking for, was it when Lot got kidnapped? And he had to take his slaves, his servants, and his children, and they were all already trained, and he went and rescued them. Everything you need to know was in the Bible, folks. How to put together a militia, how to train a militia, it's all in there. You know, and somebody keeps posting, what else, the Phoenix militia. I didn't know about the Phoenix militia. I'll have to look at that one. Thanks for posting that in the chat room. Thanks for posting that. Well, Folks from Liberty Tree Radio, thanks for hopping in. It's a little different today. We've had complete catastrophic failure of all of our cyber abilities. We had to go out and buy a brand new headset. It's a USB because the sound cards aren't working. So I can't play music. We don't have a sound board anymore. I told you guys it was going to die. It died. Boy, I just heard like clickety-click-click-click in my headphones. And so this is it. This is the crudeness, this is the roughness. If you're listening to this, you are the resistance as they say in Terminator 4 or whatever it is. So there won't be any breaks, there won't be any commercials, there won't be any roll-ins. And good, just keep posting links, that's fine. That's what this forum is for. That's why I do this, it's for sheepdogs to get together and post links. Sheepdogs. Done with the sheep. The only thing I can think the sheep would be good for is maybe tying them to the wire to stop bullets. Sorry, sounds harsh, but I'm done with them. I am completely done with them. But we're not going to be able to do the music or anything for a while until we need to raise that $100 on top of our regular fees. We need to move the satellite. That's another $100. Unless somebody out there knows how to move one of these satellite internet things. I don't, you know, because we're moving it to a different elevation. If it was roof to roof, we could just shoot an az- whoo! We could just shoot an azimuth and do it. But we got to move it about 300 feet and there's about a drop of about 10 feet of altitude from rooftop to rooftop. So I don't even know what the tilt would be. I have no way to attenuate the signal. It's not like I've done it with satellite television. Because you can on the screen will have a little bar and the wife can yell. Oh, that's good. That's good Oh, you're good lock it down though the satellite I don't know how to do it because what we want to do is we need to be where the air conditioning is We need to be in our own home. I don't want to keep taking up space in the church's library And we'll be able to do that. So we need donations desperately at Dutch Jones dot TK d ut CH J o e n s dot TK and what we'll be able to do is get that soundboard and The computer will just transmit everything will be mixed in it if I have to use a boombox with a mixtape. I'll do that but We need that sound board and everything and and hopefully you know this this USB headphone that was just donated today Was it donated did you pay for it? It was donated. Well, we're thankful. We thank the Lord for that We didn't know we were getting a USB when she grabbed it Stacy just grabbed whatever they had left She thought it was but that's okay because the sound cards aren't working So we've been given some advice to take everything off of our hard drive put it on one of we've got a 500 gig backup It's just a box that Lou uses to store training stuff on and then reformat does that sound like a good idea to you guys get rid of all these viruses will that do it or are we I mean are the just another $500 computer that's no good anymore because what happens is the sound cards don't work It was kicking us off the internet about every five minutes, but praise the Lord We've been up for an hour and 15 minutes and it hasn't kicked us off I need wireless USB? I don't know why I don't really need that. I mean that's a luxury it sounds like. But what I want to know is the sound board that we want to get is a USB input so it won't go through the regular sound card. And it's a five pot so we can put the phone, put two microphones because I need to interview my pastor next month. We're gonna do some more talk on the conference that's coming up. So we need it. We need to get him on we want to talk about dispensationalism Pre-millennial versus post-millennial because I can't do that because you guys are sending me a ton of emails on that Let's see. Is it a virus many people tell me they have a virus that's just Setting issues that could be it too I've I've allowed our 14 year old son all access to the computers and if he can't fix it I don't know what it is It could be something the heat could have done it I had a computer that the sound card went bad in because it got too hot But like all of our computers except for Stacey's They either have the mic works or the headphone works right now none of it works on here So we can't mix stuff and that Let's see back up your files and reformat it, but run scan disk before You enter any of your backup files, okay?
