UPDATED VERSION (2019): • Urban Altoids EDC Kit ...
"A mini survival kit is a small survival kit which consists of the most essential outdoor survival tools and supplies which are the hardest to improvise or replace. A mini survival kit is intended to be carried along all the time and is usually designed to complement other survival tools carried along in a larger, separate bag. Other personal gear will primarily offer additional serviceability and ease of use, but the mini survival kit should provide for the basic needs of a survival situation, followed by self rescue, assistance, or a return to normalcy in optimum situations. " [Wikipedia]
The Urban Altoids Survival Tin is not designed as a standard "survival tin" (as defined above). While the items in the above tin would be extremely beneficial in an outdoors emergency, the majority of items have little use for EDC (Every Day Carry) purposes in an urban environment. Instead of carrying a bunch of items that I would most likely never use on a daily basis, I redesigned my "survival" kit into more of an urban "convenience" kit that I would actually find useful. This would be an extremely poor kit to carry in the Amazon jungle, but highly beneficial to have at work, home, out of town travel and during errands in an urban environment.

Thank you for watching this video and for all of the comments. This version of the kit is around 7 years old now. Here is a link to my latest version of the Altoids EDC Kit: th-cam.com/video/MyMNiANaJrQ/w-d-xo.html. I hope you enjoy seeing how this kit as evolved over the years. Cheers! ~Cliff
Hi
I can't believe how many idiots commented on how useless this would be in the wilderness, rainforest, etc. The man CLEARLY states this is an urban kit, meant to contain things you might need in your every day normal life. NOT an emergency survival situation. Great kit, and awesome video. If I would add one thing, it would be a small desiccant pack to keep the contents nice and dry - especially the pills.
Thanks a bunch, Gray. I have my newest version of this kit coming out this week.
Idiots? That'd be me, I suppose.
I've watched dozens of these and did an "unexpected overnight" tin since I travel a lot. I was really surprised by how many people take the time to chastise you for not having a way to fish in the sewers or spear a pigeon. I have a more camp/survival tin but made my unexpected overnight after watching this video. Having some extra hygiene items in an environment where it's extremely unlikely you'll be without shelter and food but very likely you'll need medicine, a band aid, or a breath freshener if you end up overnight in an airport or on a couch it's nice to have it all in one place. Thanks for the video, and thanks for sharing a perspective that made me look at these kits in a different way. Forget the trolls.
I've modeled my tin after yours. I made a few changes. I also found some of the items on Amazon for way cheaper than PDF listed them. One tip for you, the pills make a lot of noise in the mini tin. So loud while walking around. I put a ball of cotton to silence it and it can also double as tinder for fire starting
Friend: what’s with that little tin you always carry?
Me: preppermints.
Friend: what?
Me: peppermints.
I'm already dead. I am now in this zombie state for the rest of my days.
Just two days ago, I returned home to Sweden after a 9 day visit to New York City. Guess what? I purchased a tin of Altoids just like yours and now intend to make my very own Urban Altoids Survival Tin! :)
SweGunner71 Very cool! Please keep me posted on the progress of your tin.
I can't believe all the haters' comments. Funny that they are likely all about carrying giant "survival blades" that can chop firewood, but what good will that do you in an urban environment? Hence the title, "urban EDC tin." I think it's a proper and well-thought collection with some high quality little items. Thanks for sharing.
LOL Find myself in the Amazon, Just happen up a can of chili in the Amazon. Thanks for making me crack up this morning.
This is actually pretty brilliant! It’s for the little emergencies that are most likely to occur!
Recently I've been super inspired by altoid tin projects! This takes the cake! Great job!
Anyway, I think your videos are very professional and very well done.
I'm not a prepper but I do keep water in the basement, spare fuel for cooking, a jacket in my car, and canned goods in the pantry. You never know.
I live near toledo and rely on the toledo's water. Water supply was interrupted for three days last week and I was grateful I had twenty gallons of spare water in the basement.
9 out of 10 comments below are by imbeciles who think the Zombie Apocalypse is only days away. I have been to dozens of corporate events like week long trade fairs, bus trips and other junkets. I have needed just about every item in your tin at one point or another. I've broken a toe-nail and needed to trim it down, I've had diarrhea, broken the zipper on my pants and had tiny pieces of glass in my foot. I've made bad lunch decisions and needed the occasional mint to talk to customers without stinking of garlic. Great kit. Probably could call it a Corporate Survival Kit as well. Maybe the other blue pill as well. Never know your luck on a company paid weekend.
Thanks for the support. I don't mind the negative comments at all. To each their own. I just prefer to focus on realistic preparedness situations. Not Zombies and Apocalyptic events.
4 years later, and we are still alive
Hes adorable. I like that idea, having a picture, being a parent myself. My kids are my life and motivation.
If no one has mentioned it already, perhaps aspirin in case someone has a heart attack.
***** isnt crank also meth
Blackjack4141 thats crack
Erich Td [politely deleted[
oh
Blackjack4141 Yes, crank is meth. It got that name from bikers hiding it in the throttle of their bikes.
Sorry that you feel that way, Richie. It was a fun month and a half of having you subscribed. Best of luck to you and I hope things in the Boston area are going well. Take care and maybe I'll see you around in the future.
My situation is semi-rural. Town of 20, 000 people. Rivers and woods, but we do have a Starbucks! I may need to do a hybrid of your two kits.
I would still get ideas from videos like this and build your own, for example he cares a lot about higene and hairs, so I would replace that with something else more useful for me and the same for you.
True. The Tools mini tin is not often used, and when it is used I am usually at a desk, so I have never lost an item before. I like having them stored in that tin rather than float around loosely like you see with many other Altoids tins.
another good item to add to your pills box would be the little pink benadryl! never know if you get some allergies or someone around you needs them (especially if they have dangerous food allergies!)
Good idea, it can be lifesaving. I had some mysterious itchy sore and swelling. Benadryl did the trick
for everyone complaining this isnt a good survival kit needs to learn, a survival kit is only as good as the person using it, and a good kit is modeled to the needs of its user, thats why the survival kits in a can preassembled arent the best, there not personally customized, i have plenty of woods around me and water, so i could use hooks and snares, but if your in an urban enviroment, why would you need them, hes got what he needs so thats all that matters
Thank you for understanding my approach. :)
Good vid. I love the Micra; don't leave home without it.
The micra is awesome. I've used all the tools in it at least once and the scissors and blade many times
Likewise. The Micra gets absolutely no love from the youtube community but I have yet to see a better multi tool for the size. The Juice S2 is just too big and heavy for me.
I would express my love for the Micra, except, damn it, I broke the tip off the blade doing something fairly innocuous. Every time I see the broken blade, I feel sad.
Haha. Unless I'm camping, the only time I need a cutting tool is for mail and I just use an old rusty Ginsu for that. I'm def not hating on anyone for carrying them but I think the whole knife EDC trend is unnecessary for a lot of people. IMHO
I've used it for opening boxes at work, cutting cords, etc. Even for meals where I don't have a proper food knife but I need to cut my food. I also use the screwdrivers for tightening furniture, handles, etc. The little chisel for scraping glue, gouging out openings, and such.
I appreciate the time and effort in creating and posting this video. Quite useful, as are the many others you've made.
FYI - I've seen many poor reviews on multiple sites (Amazon, etc.) about the Verbatim Tuff & Tiny USB Drives. Many claim they just stop working and the data is lost. Just letting everyone know so they can review before they purchase.
The concept of a USB drive is terrific, perhaps just not this specific product.
Please keep up the good work !
Just read some ignorant comments in this video, wow. Every prepper knows that every kit is suited for them only, so if you think you need a gun and everything you need to killsomeone in your kit then thats fine, but this guy only puts things that HE thinks are going to help him
This is such a great kit! A lot of people apparently don't know the difference between a survival kit and an urban survival kit. The only things i would add would be a mini lock picking set (easily made from wiper blade inserts) a couple hair pins, and a small neodymium magnet (combined with the sewing string its useful for retrieving a dropped item in a hard to get to area, like a vent) But this is a VERY great kit as is! A+
You sure do talk about diarrhea prevention and remedy. I would imagine you have diarrhea often.
Thomas Hradecky Haha.... Not often, but you never know when something will hit your stomach the wrong way. I find that I give them away to others more than I used them.
TheUrbanPrepper Maybe add some dramamine (motion sickness). Might save yourself on long car trips.
There are a lot of negative comments on here. More than likely theses are people that have never been away from home for more than a day. This is a very good kit to keep around, especially if you're in a survival situation.
I would not consider this a urban SURVIVAL kit its more like a mini man purse.
Far more people need a kit like this than need a "survival tin". Great suggestions for items to carry. Thanks for the PDF.
this has nothing to do with survival. its more of, do you have money to buy a titanium whistle and some ultra thin crazy brand name nail clippers, man-scaping, hangover, where'd i leave my keys, conversation starter, too much time on my hands and money to throw away kit. does a survival kit need gum or mints?! i understand its for you, and thats cool. but its mislabeled. i think the idea of the pic and the numbers inside are fantastic, never seen another kit with that.
Not exactly the items I would choose, but clearly a lot of thought went into this. If there are mistakes to point out, I'm at the head of the line to point them out.
The pills should be separate from each other, ideally in their packaging.
Those are not the ideal matches.
The only time I've ever seen the need for a whistle is for sports.
Those "needles" are pins. No use for pins.
Very nice inclusion of the mirror.
The razor blade should have a cover.
Leatherman lets you down on the Micra. Tge tool set is good, though.
Not a perfect kit, but certainly helpful, and better than many.
Okay, I literally wasn't even two minutes in and I was already completely impressed with this video. I'm making a survival tin for my boyfriend and this made it so much easier. Love your video.
You forgot an anti-histamine in case off a wasp sting or other allergic reaction, And a single person may need a condom in there as well.
Not just for a single person ;) but a condom can be used for medical stuff.
***** Water transport
hahaha a condom
saul arellano
for water bro,for water
I swear i lost it when you pulled the incense out lol. That's thinking outside the box. great kit man!
Tell people to put several pills in a tin and keep it in your pocket... brilliance! It is illegal to carry pills of any kind outside of a labeled container in the US... you can get nailed for intent to distribute narcotics.
You are wrong and or confused. Non prescription pills are perfectly fine to carry without the bottle. Also, you can only get busted for intent to distribute narcotics if you are carrying schedule 2 or above controlled drugs without your Rx bottle or a printout of your Rx. Schedule 2 drugs are medicines such as morphine, oxycodone, adderall, ect. So unless you are carrying around controlled substances, it is perfectly fine.
Yes, explains why they sell all those pills in my local malls restroom vending machine. :P
Blurnanza
explain to me then, why I got a ticket for possession of an unknown substance for tylenol in a ziploc in my purse.
It is also ticketable to carry multiple pills, over the counter or prescription, in a single container.
MightyMouse1222 OK, never heard about that, but anyways, who will be searching his little Altoids tin.
Cop: Sir I need to inspect your mints.
Man: Why.
Cop: Ummm... Cuz?
skullcrushers1000
they open everything. especially when they pick it up and it doesn't weigh what it should or doesn't make the right sound.
Really like your videos about prepping. I used to live Tacoma, WA. but now live in Mpls./St. Paul. So, I don't have the rain you do but lots of snow. So, being stuck in your car in the Winter is a very real possibility.
Keep up the videos. They are very interesting and informative.
u have mentos but no water purification tablets. that is not prepper tech man... but u did make a very size efficient purse. good job sweetheart.
Lurch0000 Thanks sweetie. BTW, I include water purification tablets in my EDC backpack. I've never needed them in 5+ years of carrying an altoids tin so they were omitted.
This isn’t a full on Bug Out Bag.Its meant for everyday inconveniences.Check his BOB vids if you aren’t satisfied.
Cool tin, I like how you packed stuff, gave me some good ideas. I totally get that this is not an "emergency survival kit" but a "make my life easier, so I don't get caught unprepared" kit. I noted that you also have a regular First aid kit, as well, so this is a great supplemental. I like it, thank you for sharing.
some weed and paper and your kit would be 10/10
This gives me a few ideas, I find being at work that when I need something I tend to be screwed since I carry bare minimum with me. This will help me plan a nice simple kit for work. Thanks brother!
great video, but you should rename it "metrosexual male altoids survival kit"
coreysmithsvt In my latest version I refer to it as an EDC kit instead of a survival kit. Survival kits are more applicable to a wilderness environment.
TheUrbanPrepper Thanks for clarifying; i was trying to figure out why one would need quarters for a parking meter during a zombie apocalypse. I'm pretty sure the slow, fat meter maids will be the first to be eaten and/or turned. And even if some survive (or if it's a non-zombie national emergency), I doubt they would be out writing tickets.
Some handy items Prepper ! I sometimes meet up with a couple of mates in a different part of the UK + when I'm miles from home is when I get a headache, indigestion etc. I then have to buy a whole pack of medication for the sake of a couple of tablets. I'll put one of these kits together.
Mirror for hygiene, not signaling. Hmmmmmm....Quarters for the parking meter? Tweezers for errant hairs? Nail clippers? Stick of gum? scissors instead of pliers for origami? incense? Is this a joke? My gaydar is on high alert. Like the lighter & whistle.
this is an URBAN survival kit...
No. This is a metrosexual survival kit. :)
TheGoatMumbler your a idiot, you wouldn't know a usefull kit if it bit you in the ass. This video shows a very handy kit.
He put in there what he uses or finds more useful, you can make your own how ever you want it
I think this is a great video for someone who wants to be prepared in an urban environment.
How is this a survival kit? What are you surviving from, a bad piece of fish at a restaurant? Such bull crap.
Almost every
Survival Kit you will find on TH-cam or the internet in general will include
things such as fire starting capabilities, a knife, paper/pen, signaling
whistle/mirror, first aid supplies, mini tweezers for tick/splinter removal,
medications, etc; all of which are included in this tin. However, it appears
that if you also include additional items for EDC/convenience such as clippers
and incense, it somehow nullifies all of the previous "survival" items? These
types of tins are custom made to everyone's local region and personal needs. Having
a bad piece of fish at a restaurant can certainly become an emergency if you
are on a date or perhaps without immediate access to proper intestinal
medications. This may not be "bull crap", but it's definitely a crappy
situation. Thanks for watching!

Some of this person's kit might be useful in a wilderness survival situation. But it's the type of thing that might be tossed into a coat or pack pocket and forgotten about. The tin would be useful for making charred cloth and everyone should always carry any required medication and some strong pain medicine, bug repellant, sun block and an antihistamine like a couple Epi pens or Benadryl to at least try to treat anaphlactic shock.
I believe in Dave Canterbury's 10 C's system and the five redundancies because they are so well integrated, are multifunctional and well thought out.
The Ten C's:
Cutting tool(s): a full tang, uncoated, high carbon steel belt knife with a 5"+ blade length and a 90 degree spine that will throw a shower of sparks from of a ferro rod onto tinder
Combustion device(s): three BIC lighters and three ferro rods spread through your pockets and pack a magnifying glass of at least 5 power, plus multiple tinder items and charred cloth
Container: Made of metal, for collecting, boiling/disinfecting water, cooking and making wilderness medicines
Cover-the clothing on your body, plus a sleeping bag or wool blanket, a tarp or poncho, an emergency survival bivy and two orange 3-mil plastic drum liners, aka garbage bags
Cordage: a one pound roll of #36 bankline, plus at least 25-50 feet of 510 parachute cord, plus whatever other material is appropriate to your location, like climbing rope, carabiners, rappelling devices
Compass: with rotating bezel and signal mirror for orienteering and navigation if necessary
Cotton Bandanas, orange: hundreds of uses, like slings for broken limbs, headgear, as a container, signalling device, charrable material
Candling device: ideally a headlamp with multiple modes including flash mode for signalling
Canvas Sail needle: multiple uses, as a tweezer, to mend clothing, tarps, suturing a wound and if magnetized ahead of times, as an improvised compass
Cargo Tape: thousands of uses, as tinder, repairing clothes or tarps, shelter construction, etc
Five redundant items:
Additional cutting tool(s): a folding or bow saw or a good all-purpose axe and a full-sized multi-tool
A second metal container: like a mess kit or bush pot, which allows you to boil water with one container and cook, collect water, char cotton or other natural fibers or make wilderness medicines with the other
2% tincture of iodine: as a disinfectant for water, or on wounds (Make sure yo do not have a sensitivity to iodine before using this item)
A diamond sharpening rod: to keep your cutting tools sharp
A wrist rocket slingshot and a spare set set of extra strength slingshot bands: give you an effective short range weapon that can be adapted to take larger game if used to shoot arrows in a slingbow
All of these items will fit in a good dry bag with an air valve, so it can also be used as an improvised flotation device for crossing a watercourse. Then put the dry bag into a good pack sack like the ILBE USMC Main pack.
I also recommend carrying a notebook and a few pencils. To put meat in the pot if the slingbow is innefective, carry a frog gig and a single or double barrel breech loading 12 gauge, with either clean bore or modified choke.
Now you're well equipped if you get stuck out in the woods overnight. But that isn't the whole story. Preparation is a huge asset and the lack of it might be a death sentence.
You need to have the knowledge and skills to improvise, adapt and overcome the challenges you'll surely face if you wish to survive. You must have adequate resources to build shelter, fire and make rescue signals You must have the ability to protect your core temperature and a way to remain fully hydrated. And NEVER go out into the wilderness without leaving a travel itinerary with a responsible person like a forest ranger, police officer, fire department or an adult family member. Itineraries must clearly state a time to go looking for you if you don't check in on time with that responsible entity.
And finally, a positive and realistic attitude and strong self esteem will help you when things don't always go your way. As Churchill said, we will never give up!
Douglas McIntyre he said it's urban survival kit not a forest survival kit or anything
He says urban dude u obviously didn't litsen to the first tpart
Not gunna lie, you inspired my Altoid Survival Tin 1.0 and 2.0 -- my most watched vids! Thanks for your info!
This is the GAY survival Tin.
This is the HOMOPHOBIC BIGOT comment.
More like the shit hotel survival Tin really...
assassinoco54 and thats is a RUDE saying
You Sir are definitely the most organized person I've ever seen. That's not an insult BTW.
What is wrong with some of you people that are insulting this mans video? He has done this to help you and he has certainly helped me.
Get a life & some manners whilst you are about it.
Thank you for giving this video a chance. I agree. There are a lot of survival tins out there that are most likely never used. I like actually using the items I carry, which doesn't include emergency fishing line.
Great vid, sir! Well, I believe this gentleman carries all the stuff with him not because he wants to show how much a tiny tin could swallow but because he really wants to be prepared. Some of us might raise eyebrows, but hey nobody's forcing us to do the same. Personally I only have the cellphone, the wallet, and a small multitool with me constantly. There might be one day in a year that I wish I have a bandaid or a whistle or something like that with me, but I'd rather roll the dice. Nonetheless it's good to know that someone out there is more prepared and kind enough to share the experience. I might end up carrying a tin like his one day.
Love the idea about an everyday kit! I have several of your items in my car, but they roll around the glove box and I can never find them easily. Besides you fit way more in your little tin then I thought to put in my car; it's like Mary Poppins carpet bag. lol
I just printed your PDF file. You obviously spent some time and gave a lot of thought to this nicely planned and professional looking document. Thank you for sharing this with us. I wish more people would do this for viewers. Too bad, some don't understand the meaning of your video. Just can't please all, so don't even give it a second thought.
Not sure if you will see this since this video is older but in the pill tin I would add Benadryl. It could literally be a life saver in the event of an allergic reaction. As someone who has had an anaphylactic reaction before this is something I could not live without!
I am sitting in a hotel room in Seattle planning on building an Altoid survival tin. Very cool to find your video! Thanks!!
KmanJeeper Nice! Welcome to Seattle.
Lots of people hating, I will say I was hung with this kit as a "survival" kit however I thought about it for a few moments - all this doomsday planning has people forgetting about some of the small day to day things - as mentioned this is a urban survival kit... Survival of the zombie apocalypse, probably not. Survival of the crappy day where the parking structure is closed, you rip your coat, your boss forces you to eat a street dog you know isnt cooked well. This is a great kit for that!
This is more of a beauty package then a survivability kit .
I commented on this on your original Urban Survival Tin video. I use an activated phone card instead of loose change for emergency phone calls when my cell phone may be down. Great videos!
A brilliant idea, I've seen kits for the great outdoors but never for day to day use in the city. Thank you.
HOW DID YOU DO IT???? You sir have managed to put (at the very least) half of my mothers purse (when i was a small kid and played in it) into an Altoids tin! We used to swear that if she where ever on Let's Make a Deal she would always win the $100 because of all the stuff in her purse. You did however leave out a few of the regulars one could always find in the bottom like a rock or very tiny light bulb, lol. Thanks for the video, brought back very fond memories of my childhood ;)
This is by far one of my favourites versions of the altoids survival tins!
I have no idea if this has been mentioned or not, but I would suggest keeping drugs in original packages if they aren't used quite often. Those tins probably won't keep moisture out and that will shorten their shelf life. And if possible, I would include paracetamol and take that together with ibuprofein in case of more severe pain. It's also quite effective drug to treat fever.
One of the most smart dudes in internet. Serious, I loved it.
Pedro Alexandre Wow! Thanks Pedro. I don't consider myself smart. I am only passionately curious.
im new to your videos, but slowly going through them, theyre seriously brilliant, many thanks for your time and detail on your kits. some real good advice and seems quite similar to needs here in the UK
Love the tin and will definitely be making one, and would like to throw a recommendation for a change in your pen. The fisher space pen (telescoping version) is a very useful and dependable high quality pen that will write on wet, oily, rough etc; surfaces and just will not dry out. I had an old one that I lost in my storage for about 2 years and when I found it I used it right away with no trouble whatsoever. They are also very conservative with ink and they are just wonderful.
Bar far the best, most well thought and planned urban I've seen yet. Well done.
I thought you had a lot in the main tin, but seems you may have had more than that total in those two tiny slid top tins, what a great idea!
dude... your incense rocks...and the way you talk about it... all the best for you!
For all you guys who say this is not a survival tin you are right this is everyday things he might need so stop hating
Look, It's a great idea to put together your own version of this kit. This video is about the idea of creating a kit. True, Not all his items are the ones I would carry but they suit him.
Love this channel You are the most organised person on the planet...........
Thanks for posting former Washingtonian! you brought up some great ideas! -Jeff from bellevue
Wow! Great job on this video. God bless you. These are great items for folks to consider for their edc kit. Your consideration of others is excellent.
Your video is just Wonderful sir, Even if people have different ideas of things to put in their Altoids survival tin if nothing else your video was a jumping point to learn from to talor fit to your own needs. Nicely done,
These videos and the .pdf you provide are very professional and useful. Thanks.
"Like to keep my breath fresh..incense for diarrhea" - one considerate urban survivalist, LOL!
Simple and clean design with very useful items. Ol' Hari should wake up and take a breath down below. Last week my granddaughter fell into some cacti and she was screaming her head off. I could have used the gum to shut her mouth, tweezers to remove the spines and pain relivers for her pain. I would add a small set of ear plugs for the user and be ready with the gaffers tape in case treatment goes south and fists start flying. Find this kit very usefull. Will be making some for my family .
very nice setup. most of it is less survival and more in the bathroom before a date and i need to be pretty. but the survival things you do have are very interesting its awesome how it all fits
i think the important part is to consider what YOUR needs are.
if, like me you are mostly in a city, i need to be able to get a ride home, yell for help, fix my car, or call for help... and there simply isn't anyplace to go fishing.
you HAVE TO have a good idea of what you actually use for your "normal" kit.
i keep a "rural" kit in my car, since the only way i get anywhere near fishing or fire starting needs is ... with my car!
keep making these videos! I like how you put different things in here. All I usually see is the typical fish hook, bandaid and lighter items but your ideas are neat!
The pdf in the description was a great touch
Thanks for posting the video's and especially the "LISTS"... again thanks I like the organization. Some one may have to help YOU went you cannot get into your own bag . Well done.
Body glitter...Cher's greatest hits on my mini hard drive...
Pretty clever. Kinda neat. I would change some of the items, but it's pretty cool how much utility you packed into this tiny box.
Yes... A back up, back up pen? Oh, that'll take me 10 minutes to dig for. Really practical!!
Nice video & thanks for sharing. Good thinking went into this small kit, as you never know what is around the corner. I have a similar thing I leave in my car for breakdowns or just for when an odd situation comes along. I got very lost late one night driving in The Lake district here in England my little kit kept me warm, as could`nt have the motor running all night. Those that "fail to prepare, prepare to fail".
Nice vid again, mant thanks.
that's one of the best survival kit I see on youtube
Good list for urban kit. I like to keep some nylon chord handy in case I need to improvise a belt or shoe lace. I keep $20 bills stashed in multiple locations - good to see one in the kit. Anti-diarrhea tablets are brilliant, and I always keep some toilet paper compressed in a ziplock bag in my back pack. I would recommend adding a couple of those anti-bacterial wipes that come in the little flat foil packet.
Good video and we liked your kit, looking forward to getting a few made up for my hubby and I, thanks for sharing
I made an urban survival kit, it has two items, a beggars cup and can opener. Time to go hunt me down some cans of backed beans.
perfection! you've saved me countless hours of trial and error. Thanks!
I like this kit and I think it was presented well. There must have been 5 items I didn't know about that I will include in some of my kits.
Thanks will have to make one for myself. love the small tools in your setup.
Pretty awesome to get so much in there. I bought two today to start mine.
I understand if ppl critique your video, but being rude if they don't like it, there's no need for that. Its not like they have to make that tin just because they watched the video -_-
btw I enjoyed your vid
lanenna3 I don't understand the rude comments either. I fully expect negative feedback though. It goes with the territory of making TH-cam videos.
I'll be including KY Jelly and Condoms in Version 2.1. Thanks for the recommendation. :)
The matches and incense are genius! Thanks for this video :)
Induce kit, if you get you needle and thread, put the needle along side a match stick wrap the thread all the was round and secure in a small nick in the end, you have no sharp edge and the needle can't get bend as well as been self contained. I keep them in shirt pockets etc very handy :)
Can't wait for a V3.0 :-) Anyway thank you very very much for all your video. Really appreciate you share your knowledge.
Very nicely done! I really like those mini tins. I think this is one of the most practical ones I have seen on YT.
Oh wow. This is a good idea. I wonder if I should make one of these. I've been ridiculously addicted to Altoids since high school, and it always feels so wasteful to just throw the tin box away.
I just used a few of the items yesterday. I used some of the other items the day before. Actually, I use many of the items in this tin almost daily, so I'm a little confused by your comment regarding my survival. For that reason, I don't feel that it is a wasted effort at all, but I respect your opinion. No, I don't watch The Walking Dead although I've heard good things regarding that show.
