DID ANY ONE BRING A BLACK SMITH SHOP

I ment to put a poll up for Iteams like wagons and that so we could get an idea how many of the importian iteams came along .

[pisces74]

I smine one of the foot powered sewing machines? if not thats four. if sew...... I also have some extra over the counter pharms

[Matt]

We have enough NPCs that I think it would be safe to assume that a black smithing shop was taken by someone.

[Straha]

I brought 30 pounds of marijuana seeds with my stuff at the advice of Ward. Does that count?

[Grimm Reaper]

I hope we brought at least one of the stoves from Island In The Sea Of Time.

No organs for making music? Surely we can bring one of them?

I brought as much and as close as I could to a pharmacist's facility from the 1930s, when they had to still make some of their own from raw materials.

Also the gear for setting up a chandler's facility.

Lastly a small powder works should have come.

DID ANY ONE BRING A BLACK SMITH SHOP



Yes, I did (medium sized anvil, hand cranked blower, hammers, tongs, chisels).

[Bulgaroktonos]

We have enough NPCs that I think it would be safe to assume that a black smithing shop was taken by someone.

I actually brought the tools and an anvil. From what I understand you only need a base set of tools of about 5 or 6. Then, given the material, you can make the rest of the tools you need.

As for molds and such, I couldn't find much on what they weigh, etc. so I left it out for now, with most of my remaining weight falling into extra ammo, rope, nails, food, etc.

Other things I thought of bringing, but did not have room for:
Horse/Oxen drawn fire wagon with 16 cubic foot tank: Output of 1.6 cubic feet of water per minute: 350 lb
Galvanized Steel Windmill 8 foot diameter wheel with 32 foot pump rod: 335 lb (includes gearing, etc)
Steel Tower, 40 foot tall: 210 lb
Hand Pump: 45 lb
Wind mill grinder: 8- 15 bushel capacity per hour: 30 lb
Modern Hydralic Ram Pump: 30 lbs (We used one of these with a drop of 10 feet, and it was able to pump water to irrigate a field some 60 feet higher), Power is stricly provided by the pressure of the water coming in.
4 inch plastic pipe: about 10 lbs for a 10 foot section (for input of ram pump)
1 and 1/2 inch irrigation pipe: about 25 lb for 50 foot length
Straight Radiator hose and pipe clamps (for irrigation pipe), about 6 lbs per 8 sections of pipe connected
Old Fashioned Sprinkler heads: about 1/2 lb each (sprays out about 45-50 feet radius).
1/2 inch gavinized pipe, 12". and 4 foot lengths threaded both ends
1/2 inch galvinized elbow joints
Harrow (for smoothing ground for planting) about 50 lbs
Horse Collars (essential for horses to pull heavy loads like plows) 30 lbs
Chain: 40 foot lengths with heavy hooks: about 50 lbs (suitable for logging, and dragging heavy objects.

Shoot you told me that windmill weigh in at 300 lbs now I have to find 35 lbs for it .

Some molds can be done with finding a proper type of sand: Might I suggest including the 'Haslicks' books on forging and casting? There are other books from Lndsay Publications that would be useful as well, I believe their website has a catalog which includes books on just about everything you might want to do with metal working, as well as a wealth of volumes on many, many other topics.

[Forum Lurker]

I brought a lathe, footpedal-powered; also, a whole lot of texts (in laminated binders, for durability) which hopefully cover the basics of every industry I could think of.

[Dave Howery]

I haven't posted my list yet, but I'm bringing one of the small 'one horse' wagons... it's about all you can take and still have any room left for other necessary gear...

[Hendryk]

Has anyone also brought a loom?

[Ward]

Has anyone also brought a loom?


I hope so a long with spinwheels .

[Norbert]

I hope so a long with spinwheels .

I brought a spinning wheel, and I planned that one of the books I was taking had plans for a loom. I figured plans wer a great deal lighter for the loom, but the spinning wheel would be more difficult to make.
