An expedient oxygen absorber for a 5 gallon storage container can be made by placing a golf ball size piece of steel wool and a tablespoon of salt inside a paper napkin and placing it in the container. The salt will absorb the residual moisture and the steel wool will naturally absorb the oxygen.
Preppin' Tips - Recipes
Make Your Own Electrolyte Beverage (Gatorade, Pedialyte, etc.)
To one quart of water add 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 8 teaspoons of granulated sugar. Thoroughly mix all ingredients together.
This will replace electrolytes lost by the body due to dehydration caused by diarrhea, vomiting, excessive sweating, etc. A package of Kool-Aid, Crystal Light, etc. may be added to enhance the flavor and color.

Agree. The 4H gun safety test asks "where is the brains of the gun?" Good thing to teach early.

A very essential part of any training. Bitmap makes an excellent point.

Well said - the safety is in the brain, not a control on your equipment. Depending on it will get you into trouble someday, most likely.

Best to put your thinking cap on first no matter what you may be doing. Thanks.
