A few more item suggestions.
Antifogger:
ingredients: 5 x ammonia, 1 bar of soap, 1 vodka or 1 whiskey or 1 gin or 1 rum or 1 tequila or 1 triple sec
requires: 1 pot or 1 pan, hotplate or open fire, container
Antifoggers work by breaking surface tension so water forms a thin film instead of droplets. Applied to anything which covers the eyes, reduces eye encumberment by 1, adds a (defogged) tag. Must be reapplied every 24 hours.
Packet of ketchup/mayonnaise/vinegar/salt/pepper/sugar/milk:
A single serving of each condiment in a tiny disposable packet which cannot be reused. Never spoils. Found in piles in fast food restaurants. Sugar and milk packets found in coffee shops.
Aspic:
ingredients: 1 chunk of meat, 1 chunk of meat or 1 tomato or 1 zucchini or 1 raw fish or 1 sardines or 1 tuna fish or 1 wild vegetables, 1 water or clean water
requires: 1 pot or 1 pan, open fire or hotplate
Aspic should require more skill make than jerky and be more nutritious, but takes less time and is heavier. The gelatin protects the food from spoilage, so it should be either non-spoilable or take a very long time to spoil.
Pot brownies:
ingredients: 2 x vegetable oil or 1 tallow or 2 x raw fat, 1 powdered milk or 1 milk, 2 x sugar or 1 honey or 2 x honeycomb or 1 maple syrup, 1 powdered egg, 1 marijuana
requires: 1 pot or 1 pan, open fire or hotplate
Filling, delicious, and has the same effect as smoking marijuana.
Simple snare:
ingredients: 1 wire, 1 two by four, 1 duct tape or 1 long string
requires: 1 trapping
A very simple, primitive trap. Has a 50% chance of triggering when anything passes over it. Creates a loop which tightens over a small animal’s neck when it tries to pass through, strangling it. Automatically kills any small animal (shrew, squirrel, raccoon, opossum, rat, turkey, weasel, cat, etc. – nothing fox size or larger) which passes over it. Has no effect on anything else. Trap turns into 1 wire and 1 two by four when triggered, whether or not it works.
Fresnel solar cooker:
ingredients: 3 x steel sheet, 1 pipe, 8 x two by four, 16 x nails or 32 x duct tape, 1 salt, 1 vinegar, 1 flour
requires: 1 hammer or 1 entrenching tool or 1 stone hammer, 1 hacksaw, 1 rag
A parabolic-shaped reflector in a wooden frame with a metal pole projecting into the focus area where a pot or pan can be hung. Acts as a hotplate which uses no fuel as long as it’s in a space with no roof or in an interior space next to a window, it’s day, and the sun is shining. The salt, vinegar, and flour are the ingredients of a metal-polishing formula which are used with the rag to make the steel sheets sufficiently reflective. Should require high fabrication and medium-high construction skill to make.
Tourniquet:
ingredients: 1 long string or 1 belt or 1 leather belt
Takes 0 time to craft. Automatically stops bleeding in any one limb, but takes more time than a rag or bandage. (Should be one version of the tourniquet for each of the ingredients so it can be crafted back into the item, but all the versions should be otherwise identical.)
