Electronics of 2. Survivor head torch or concentrated acid are currently my two options for skill gain. And both will chip away at my battery stash that the makeshift welder is going to need.

Well Archie’s two day trek through the surrounding countryside paid off. In an isolated mansion he found a huge library that had so many books that he had never read. Hopefully some of the answers to his problems will be within their pages.

Seriously, I took a half days walk to a small town that I combed through. Them ‘borrowed’ a car to check out some blank spots on the map. That mansion had the largest library I’ve seen in a long time.

Try to build a second one and see if you can’t make a vehicle welding rig out of them. It’s a great solution for a battery-starved survivor. Car batteries hold a lot more charges and you can fill 'em up off gasoline or diesel.

Couldn’t build a welding rig at the time. ☹ The situation Is better now but I knew that if I could get to a point where battery compartment mod was craftable that I’d be good.

And yes, I have a makeshift welder with enough charges AND two additional ones without any charges or mods.

Also, what’s this? Why can’t I make it even shorter?

Over I discovered how to make batteries from vinegar, and vinegar from fruit, batteries stopped being a problem. Requires cooking, which is easy to level, and electronics, which is more of a pain.
