DIY activated carbon guest post

Update: I ran this yesterday while on my way back in the car. When I copied and pasted the article the formatting went right out the window and this beautiful article became impossible to read. It is all fixed now and readable. Once again I would like to thank the guys at Zombease for letting me run this post while I’m on vacation. If you have not I suggest you check out what they are doing and give them a like on Facebook.

DIY T-Shirt Making

Ok  for today’s post I have a fun little DIY project for you. I learned this few years ago and haven’t thought about it recently. It’s a very cheap and easy method for making graphic T-shirts at home for cheap. They are not the prettiest but they are very punk. They make a great advertising tool for your brand so that everyone that sees it has the brand in their heads.Best of all its super easy and cheap. Over the years I’ve played around with printing my own T-shirts. One method I’ve done that works well is spray paint and stencils. Today is more of a punk silk screening. Stick around and I’ll shot you step by step how you can make your own bootleg Survivalpunk shirt. Don’t worry I wont sue!

DIY Lamp from trash

I’m back with another quick, easy and cheap DIY project. When cleaning up the other day I saw a oil lamp I had made a few years ago. I had completely forgot about it.  After having sat for a few years I gave it a try and it worked just as good as ever. For this tutorial, short as it will be, I wanted to make a new one. That way I could show you step by step and now I have two and two is one after all. Let me show you how to turn trash into a great little oil burning lamp.

I had a empty coffee can saved up just for this project and decided it was finally time. Enough jiba jabba lets get to building!
