Boom! It's SHTF time. You can only grab three small, simple items from your house. What are they?

I would not use dental floss unless things changed the floss has wax on it. That could come off in a wound. Strongly recommend if your(anyone) itching to do stiches on someone then buy real sutures. There is a lot of stuff you have to do before giving someone stitches like getting the wound clean and as sanitary as possible. Your better off just putting a band aid on the wound and transport the patient back to base station for treatment in a fairly sanitary setting.

P.S.
If you want to improvise with stiches, then use monofilament fishing line, the smaller the better. I think ice fishing line is the smallest.

Only some floss is coated with wax.

1. Mill
2. Lathe
3. Angle grinder

I can build what I need from scraps.

Ok, now seriously:

1. Suppressed 22lr Ruger American Bolt action with ammo
2. Water filter
3. Machete

Not enough though. I'd desperately need my backpack with tent & sleeping bag, a 10x15ft plastic and at least a dozen lighters.

As a Firefighter, I'm always amazed and disappointed at how many preppers just don't prep at all for fires, and sometimes they set their selves up for it.

Un-burnable house made of cob, un-burnable roof made of kiln forged ceramic tiles, no trees near the house, city water and well water for dousing, 2 times 15 lb. dry extinguishers in the house, 1 in the garage with a 7 lb. CO2 brother next to it, another CO2 in the car and a Halon in the kitchen next to a fire blanket 6 feet from the stove just inside the pantry door.
Ex-military with nuclear weapons fire-fighting training and 7 years of practice, anti-accident trainer who also used B and C firefighting hoses for wetting down our rubber mats for trucks and cars to test their ABS systems and realise that the ABS systems were nearly useless on ice and snow anyway since the truck tires are too heavy to get rotating again if you turned the steering wheel more than 21 degrees away from the direction of travel.....
We have a nuclear plant 10 kilometers away also. It just got modernised by the russian builders and it provides 80% of Hungary with electricity including us. We cannot prep enough for the radiation which would come from there.
