Gentleman's Survival Kit. As always - I got carried away - and ended up making a Gentleman's Survival Kit. Here's what I ended up using to make it... Contents Vintage Briefcase - purchased it on Etsy for $37 including shipping. Basswood Interior - I had the wood on hand. Basswood is easy to work with. I finished it with an oil based cherry stain, sanded off the finish in key spots to make it look weathered and then put two coats of amber shellac on. Hatchet - I found this at a flee market for $5. Match Tin - Flee market for $3 - I have no idea what it was originally used for. Kindling Tin - This is actually an old Kodak film real container. Flask - This flask had an ugly cozy around it, so I made one with some left over leather that I had and some snaps (this was my first time to install snaps - not so bad).
Whiskey - Jack Daniels for $13. Kindling - These are short pieces I cut of "duraflame fatwood" from Lowe's. Matches - These are strike anywhere fireplace matches that I cut down to fit inside the match container. Covert Listening Book. TechTV – Machine Shop 1.
