Vehicular First Aid: Almost done but sharing anyway. (UPDATE)

I think I am going to add individual dose over the counter meds like Imodium, Tylenol and somebody mentioned Benadryl. But let me share what I have done;

MTM 30 Caliber Ammo Can. All of $9.99,  waterproof, small enough not to be bulky and big enough to carry a lot of stuff.  But I had to do some modifications to keep things in place more or less. After a “smart” use of glue gun and some spare kydex, I ended up with this:

Bandages and related on the left side and the rest on the right side. Those square things you see are four tin boxes ($6.99) to carry small items (one is full of bandaids) that could get misplaced or do not need to be bouncing around…and yes I stole that tip from the comments, thanks! I will properly label the cans so I don’t have to guess what is in which. And still leaves plenty space for other stuff which I fins myself needing to fill with something.

Something I always found missing in all kits and made a point to cover is a cutting instrument, preferably scissors/shears. It is annoying to cut stuff with your knife when you are bleeding and a downright pain in the ass when you have nothing, so I added a pair of trauma shears.

That is a bit of Kydex leftover molded to hold the shears and attached to the cover with hot glue. (UPDATE: Hot glue, Kydex and plastic do not work well together. Trying crazy glue before going mechanical fasteners)

The only thing missing is a sticker that screams FIRST AID! (coming soon) and that should do it. I have tape, modern merthiolate for disinfection, steristrips, Celox, bug bite ointment, rash cream and even ammonia ampules.

If there is something that you think I need in the boo-boo box, drop a comment.

PS: I added a eyeglass repair kit I da stashed away. Wee little thing even comes with a magnifying glass and I know I can’t drive or do several things without my glasses.
And my eye wash saline is expired. Gotta go to Wally world 😐


UPDATE: Crazy glue didn’t work either so I went with mechanical restraints.

And yes, they have Loctite

Who would mate with this specimen?

Oh dear God.

This is the kind of guy who does not make it past the initial credits in any horror flick.


PS: The guy removed the tweet and I was dumb enough not to make a screen capture. He was bawling like a toddler who slammed his finger in a door.

Antifa vandalizes Portland’s Democratic Party office during the Inauguration of Biden.

Interesting couple of things: They spray paint, bust the windows and the glass door, but they do not go inside. One thing is the penalty for Vandalism (30 days in jail and fines reaching $1250….if they even get charged at all) and the other would be the penalty for burglary (five years and a maximum fine of $125,000).  So they know how far they can push with their damage which suggest legal advice prior to the actions.

And the second thing is the proliferation of collapsible batons. It seemed like almost everybody had one and some even had a holster for it. I am guessing they are aware they won’t be charged with possession of a weapon like Regular You and Me would.

It is so nice to have the the Gov batting for you even when you screw their minions.
