    Hey Chefsimms,
    Just looked @ that web site for the underground shelters & installation. Thats some kind of saw that guy was using to cut the hole! If I lived in a tornado prone area I would definitely consider one.

    Nice if you are one of those people who can afford it and don't mind sleeping on someone elses lap. To small. Cousins live in Georgia and have installed a few large cement septic tanks to store things in as well as to be below ground in the event of a tornado. So far so good. The storage areas have held well, stay cool and are VERY hard if not impossible to detect. The family can stay in the house most time with the entrance to the Storm shelter looking like a mini shed out in the side yard. Once inside the shelter the light weight metal covering could blow off and the family woudl be safe as well as able to get out when the event was over. The storage ones require a magnet to locate and some digging.

    with the 2012 end of days deal coming up all kinds of companies see a large profit to be made come on if you have the means to start a co. the builds bunkers for people and make a huge profit you would just think back to y2k how many people payed for useless computer parts i remember them putting up folding stop signs at every corner everyone freaked out it was over nothing that time but people thought better safe than sorry but the point is that there is alot of money to be made off preppers thats my thoughts
    fixed blades: rather have one and not need it than need it and not have it!

    Almost any metal fabrication shop can build a shelter. It takes a general contractor to move it and get it into the ground with proper drainage, lighting, air exchange, and permits. Only a company that has been in the business for a minimum of 5 years should be used!

    That last is based on experience; (Did not do that the first time we tried to put a storm shelter on the farm) That was a horror story with the county coming out and forcing us to remove the underground storm shelter we had purchased and dug in by our selves.

    I think a lot of people are getting concerned with the way the world is headed. We went to a survival preparedness fair in Mesa, Arizona and they had tons of freeze dried foods, and even had one really nice underground shelter on site, first time ever. Would love to own one, but they are expensive. People are trying to get set up to raise their own garden products and learn to be self sufficient. This I believe is a concern item for people. I'm in the same boat and belief. Besides I love gardening. We are working at being prepared and off grid ourselves.

    As they teach you in Business College "Find a Need and Fill that Need" How to start a successful business put down into a very simple form that any one can understand. Spent 30,000 to learn that fact.
