Get set to learn how to make dozens of useful items out of nothing more than scrounged materials or common, inexpensive products found in every home.

- MORE MAKESHIFT CONSTRUCTION—When you're low on cash, it's convenient to be able to construct your own useful things instead of shelling out money at the store. Now you can create all sorts of functional items out of discarded plastic, scrap metal, duct tape, empty bottles, spent ammo . . .
- MORE MAKESHIFT MINDSET—When you can't just drop by the store for the parts or tools needed to complete a project, your most important tool will be your mind. Ballou helps you develop a "makeshift mindset" so you, too, can come up with unconventional ways to accomplish your workshop goals . . .
