Wondermill Wonder Junior

The Wondermill Wonder Junior sets us easily, and works well .

Does a survival-type need a grainmill? Is the bulky, heavy item practical for a bug-out situation?  Would a grainmill be worth the weight and space it takes up in a survival situation?
Those were the first questions I came up with, when asked to review the hand-powered Wondermill Wonder Junior. But since that question has come up from readers before, it seemed like a good time to address the issue!
So, with some help from the local Dutch oven club, we created a survival scenario and tried out the Wondermill.

Fathers Day Gifts For That Survival/Prepper Dad

Don't forget the intangibles!
Fathers Day is June 19, and here are some practical, inexpensive gift suggestions for that prepper or survival dad!
Everybody (Says me!) needs to carry a small, pocket-sized survival kit wherever they go. If an emergency happens or the Sewage Hits the Fan, the only survival tools you’ll have are the ones in your pockets, purse, briefcase or coat pocket.
Maybe Dad is already on the preparedness or survival bandwagon, and is pretty well set up. Or, maybe he doesn’t have anything, and sees no need to prepare for anything.
Either way, here are some Fathers Day gift suggestions for inexpensive, useful gifts that can come from the kids. Any Dad worthy of  the title will appreciate and carry these items, because of who gave them!
