    He's got a point. Cast iron pans and skillets are heavy. I have trouble just holding them above the stove for a few moments
    Well, you have to practice with your weapon, otherwise it's just an object d'crap. Build up your skillet muscles, so to speak.

    I keep a cricket bat next to the bed. I've even had some training in how to use it (have a buddy deep into Martial Arts & SCA-style swordplay). I've even used it to defend my apartment, once...
    Those aren't real problems, Sam.

    If you're sitting at home swinging a skillet around as practice for a zombie apocalypse......you need to get out more and get some help.

    You can easily make many different sorts of bows and arrows with items found around the house and in the woods. Maybe make some spears by lashing knives to broom poles. You can also make napalm and drano bombs with common household items. A bludgeon weapon is nice for the close stuff but I would try to keep my distance. If I had to choose a bludgeon, it would be a metal bat. Depending on what gardening tools you have, you could use a machete or scythe but not many people use them unless they farm.

    If I had time to get my shit together, I would booby trap my house with common household items. I know the topic isn't supposed to get crazy, but you can do some cool stuff with everyday things.

    And a few more who just read this thread and realized the gaping hole in their zombie apocalypse preparedness plan and are mapping out a workout regimen.
    Just look at my face. You can tell I post at HPOTD.

    Damn that just gave me the best idea for a film ever...

    Home Alone.. WITH ZOMBIES! Can you imagine poor ten-year old Kevin MacCalister, after having defended himself from burglars on two seperate occasions, now having to booby-trap his house from the oncoming slaught of the undead?! He'd have a blast!

    And owning that kind of stuff is alot more "common" than women would like us to think.

    Well I live in the US, in the South, so it is almost like a birth rite to own a couple of deer rifles and shotguns which I do, and my wife and I both have carry/conceal permits for her .380 and my 9mm pistols. I also spent 15 years as a truck driver and have several tire "thumpers" to check for flat tires, these are heavy steel and wooden clubs that are just made for thumping the shit out of something or someone. I guess those would be the first line of our home defense, shoot em til we run out of ammo then bash there freaking skullz.
