making alchohol was on there...and that one is pretty valuable but also for wound cleaning, i went into prepper mode during march and i could not find alcohol, i went to ebay and amazon to see if they had any, and they were major price gouging, 50 bucks for a the average size one.

@PeaceSign, How much alcohol do you need?

 

 

I actually make my own wine and beer. Its pretty easy. Making your own whiskey should be too. Just don't get caught bootleggin!

Is that for making whiskey or beer? I would like to know how to make alchohol (especially the isopropyl kind). I know fermenting and distilling is part of it, but that pic makes me tired already!! Is that yours?

Nope...not mine. But that one would produce quite a bit. I did know one ole feller, long ago, out in East Texas. He had him one out in the Piney Woods that was not quite that big. That old man could sure make some good moonshine. 
 

If it was a sh!t hit the fan scenario I would make straight whiskey (Ethanol) instead of trying to make isopropyl. Many more advantages to it and it would be more valuable in my opinion. Plus, if the etoh concentration is high enough it would serve the same purpose as isopropyl when using it in the same manner for treating cuts and such.
