I'd be more concerned if I was left with no components to rig, modify and fix things...

Got no sewing machine here, but if I had an electric one it would be trivial to convert it to mechanical drive. Could use my motorbike to run a water pump, things like that!

Lemme check my mind on what I'd do the first few days...

Actually I've got a handful of gallon size water bottles in the shed, those are for the obvious: hike around to get all the gasoline that I could.

Then I'd load up on serious amounts of superglue, that is always a must! Hell, I've even fixed the drive sprocket on my 250cc motorbike using that, since the fit is not good enough as provided from the Chinese factory!

Next I'd get seeds and all sorts of containers, maybe even some earth delivered. Things grow constantly and rapidly here, so it would actually be possible to convert the gardens to something useful in short order. We've got some spare, really large pots outside, filling those would be key.

What more? Actually the key would be communication. Everyone in the family here knows that I totally can do most stuff, so I'd tell'em all we'll have to work together, and that I'll design, fix and set up everything as long as I get the necessary help...

All around there are workshops, so something like loading up on old car batteries should be super easy, and cheap. I'd have to depend on everyone seeing the point of stuff like that, which is close to impossible now while we're all in the bubble.

On both sides of the house I'm at now we've got small banana plantations, even while right inside of the border of the big city. So some communication with them would be essential! Getting my family here that is way higher on the totempole to maybe invite them all in to get to know each other better would not be easy, but I'd certainly try!

Lemme see what could be next... Maybe a dinghy or even kayak? We're close to the river, could easily drag that with the motorbike, and the river is the default way to transport really important things like food. Traffic there would spike, so being someone there from day one could be smart...

When writing this I realize that for me it would all be about the social part, combined with showing everyone that I can be bloody useful. Would be smart not to forget getting more basic tools, so I'd have to do that.

We've got an interesting, but way too expensive store close to the other house, second hand stuff from Japan. That is where I've found the only pair of high quality pliers available here, so I'd load up on everything I could get there that is high quality.

But I would not be too worried dealing with everything even with poor tools, perhaps that is even what I'm really good at, as long as they can be replaced, sharpened or fixed up its not too bad. There is a huge difference between one off, improvised jobs and making a living, for the latter you totally need something very dependable!

Either way, once things really change like this, everything turns into a tool, and if you work all those tools for the common good things will work out :-)
