Gear
Be truthful here can you put your hands on every bit of kit you have
Do you know we're everything is are you organized ? And if so are the gear in bags ready to go or neat on shelves cupboard s etc
I no were everything is but it changes from time to time in what I think is a priority

RE: Gear
To be honest I couldn'y lay my hands on everything without a little search. I know roughly where everything is but everything I need quickly I can get quickly. The stuff I can't get is put away for a rainy day.

RE: Gear
I know where all my stuff is, but that's because I don't have very much of it. I envy some of the preps you lot have in place. Still, anything is better than nothing!

RE: Gear
Nup the only ready constant is the BOBs and EDCs and even then stuff like batteries, light sticks, pens, pain killers etc have a habit of disappearing from them, plus we keep eating the food supplies !!!
I do manage to keep 95% of our gear in plastic bags, waterproof food containers and large plastic storage boxes but its nigh on impossible to keep track of everything.

RE: Gear
I'm clearing out the garage and shed at the moment and keep finding stuff I had forgotten I had stashed away because I had either replaced it for a better quality item or discarded it from one of the bags. I reckon I could set up a shop selling cheap multitools with the amount I keep finding.
All the important stuff I can lay my hands on straight away but I'm sure the extras and other bits and pieces move by themselves because I can never remember putting them where I find them

RE: Gear
I've no idea where everything is.
Last practice we held (triggered by a flood alert) took us 4 hours to get the basics together and the house looked like a bomb had gone off in it.
Wrote out a lovely list at the end as stuff was put away.
Then we spring cleaned.
List in the bin now.
We used to have a proud boast that everything we owned would fit in the back of our two vehicles. Used to.
Now, a Luton box van would be needed plus the van.
Never pays to stay in one place for a long time does it?

RE: Gear
every thing that is vital is no more than 30 minutes to gather up and put in rucksack, all extras are no more than a further 20 mins, or more depending on how much extra you need, still alot more stuff to buy however, but all the basics are there
so i do need further organissation, but for most things my current "organisation" will suffice!
