Can you imagine a new world that's rebuilding homes? Besides builders being in high demand, carpentry is another industry that'll be very profitable post-collapse. If you'd like to invest in such a trade, learn the skills necessary so you can build furniture and repair things. For example, you'll need to become good at measuring, marking, cutting, nailing, tools and aids, making diagrams, and more.
Even if SHTF doesn't take place for a while, this could become an excellent hobby or perhaps provide you with some extra income in the mean time!
2) Carpentry
While today’s society relies mainly on furniture and cabinetry from big-box home improvement or retail stores, such large-scale manufacturing may be non-existent in a fallen economy. Local carpenters will then be called upon to fill that void. The reliability of electricity in a post-collapse world may be suspect, so when learning carpentry it is wise to also learn to use traditional tools and techniques. Finding and purchasing the older tools, such as hand planer, a mitre box, a treadle lathe, and other traditional tools, would be worth your while, rather than relying solely on modern tools that may become obsolete, if only for a while.
After the break, you'll learn about another trade that'll be very beneficial after SHTF. This trade takes practice but trust me when I say, learning how to do this will help you create a long, profitable business that'll help people get the essentials they need to live every single day.
