Zombie plan of the week

[technovapir]

Not quite sure how zombie proof this is right now...but with unbreakable glass and retractable stairs, it might have possibilities

I LOVE this airplane house!! I've seen this sort of home before, made from salvaged aircraft. What I find peculiar about this particular one is that they left the landing wheels hanging out there...

 

[CES]

what, you mean the landing wheels aren't functional?

I guess it would depend on how big of a mud slide it was...

I would submit to you as a possible ZPOTW an airplane refurbished into a house or sailboat. Here is a whole page of them. If it could still fly, or float, it could also be a good escape vehicle. I read an article several years ago about buying one for refurbishing. It was approx $2000 for the plane, $40,000 for the renovation & set up. Plus of course the land.

Here is a link to the most perfect zombie fortress home yet. The site is all written in Japanese, but don't worry, you don't need to read it to get this. Scroll down for pictures of the amazing home. Want.

wow- that really could be be zombie proof! I'm glad they opened the windows and doors- i had an almost irresistible urge to start painting graffiti on the walls.

Tim Allen would be proud!!! That looks like the ultimate base of operations. It has retractable doors, windows, drawbridge (!!!), between outer buildings and platforms, and movable exterior walls/gates. There should be enough real estate on top to provide a reasonable garden and water catch system along with solar/wind power. I just wonder if it survived the recent earthquake and tsunami? It would be a shame if it didn't.

I think I found the manufacturer:

They're in Warsaw, Poland and that design is called the SafeHouse.

Thanks for posting that link whynot. I found several houses in their designs that I really want!

Not to quibble but the concrete house was made with a steel sheeting. You'd have to be Egyptian to get those sliding doors made out of concrete AND mobile.

Nice!!! on a side note can't wait for The walking dead to start back up...

 

[muttSRT]

I dont know if anyone has seen this yet. Here locally there is a guy/people who are trying to make a SHTF fortress called Camelot. The basic design is built from shipping containers. Lots of pretty cool info on the website. Seems like the design could be done anywhere.

This is my new "plan B" safehouse...

 

[whynotvap]

That's actually a pretty interesting concept they have there. It's a shame Tenn is on the other side of a couple mountain ranges or I'd be interested in a share, possibly two. 18.5k a unit isn't that bad when you consider it's partially rehabbed containers. I'd prefer a thicker outer wall for protection from small arm's fire or battering rams.

Zombies have small arms? Does the virus (or whatever) shrink them? And what has any of this got to do with angry sheep? I'm so confused.

The flamethrower shrinks them... Look up "Hand of Glory construction" for more info The sheep have been angry ever since the Scottish started wearing kilts...

Also, FWIW, has anyone else been watching Disaster Preppers?
