Dog shit on a stick.

People may think you're bad-ass if you've got a gun, but with this, ain't no-one fucking with you !

Chipperz, I don't know why more people haven't replied to this thread, it's a shame really...I'd also use a stool as a weapon. "You can't hit me!"

Hmmm, an adamantium skeleton with claws...?
I'm having the claws made now, hope they're done by the apocalypse...

I have a pneumatic chisel somewhere in the house, if I could rig it to run on something not electric, I could be in business. And add a knife to make it even longer.

Sharpen some fan blades and make it handheld.
Attach something sharp to one of my nunchuku.
Make plate armour with the destroyed cars. =)

i'm going to be that person and say i'd never let myself run out of ammo.

cause i'd be refilling my own brass.

but if worst came to worse, i'd say my tv. that thing weighs a ton. i'd toss it off the porch and smoosh a bunch of raiders. :D

and i'm sure i could mix some cleaning things together to make some crazy bombs. :O

I make my armor outta all the metal pots and pans in my house and equip myself with my knives.

Alright.

Main weapon : Big watergun with the tank size changed up a bit for something larger, only I'd fill it with sulphuric acid used in some batteries. Maybe a Super Soaker, one of those long range ones. That'll fuck with people alright.

Secondary weapon : Nailgun with the pin that has to be pushed down in order for it to nail things permanently fixed so that it's always pushed down and I don't have to get my fingers in the way of the business end.

Tertiary weapon : If I'm capable of getting one to work, electromagnets along rails with a barrel that launches a metal object using magnetic force... Okay it's basically a railgun only I might use batteries for ammo, maybe explodes on impact covering the guy I'm shooting in battery acid.

I think I'll just do it simple. I'll wear my chain mail, and arm myself with my bow, the familys splitting-axe and hatchet, and my dagger. That's good enough for any medieval battlefield, so it should do for just some raiders.

You can't go wrong with the old "washing-up liquid bottle full of petrol and lighter" approach.

Crossbow, knuckledusters and an iron pipe.
For armour, I'd use a motorbike helmet, and thick leather jacket and motorbike kevlar reinforced jeans. Steel capped Dr. Marten boots, Asterisk knee protectors, hockey elbow protection and iron rod reinforced arm bracer's. And I would stock up on plenty of RadAway.

Ironically I'm looking into taking urban weaponry classes at a place in my town. Maybe I'll have a list of recipes for you guys in a year :p

Oh this is too easy.

I would dress in my stormtrooper costume, and take these trophies from school, chain them to a flashlight, and BAM light up flail.

Also, I would do the knife broom spear thing, and I would also get the chainsaw. Add a molotov or two, some heavy or sharp object on top of the doors poised to fall, and me hiding in the laundry room with my flail, spear, chainsaw, and molotovs.

Well i guess the WW2 German Bayonnet i have under my bed will do just fineand as armour im sure the chainsaw gear that i found lying around will do just fine.

I'd then proceed to the nearest cuboard and barricade myself in. (That tatic seems to work fine on L4D)

Well, the guns are useless (apart from as clubs), but I'll let you get away with the throwing knives - congratulations! You have a house tooled up with weapons, ya psycho :p

I love that the rest of this thread can basically be split into "I get the chainsaw" or "run and hope I don't die". Fair points, don't get me wrong :)
I'm not a psycho, just a pacifistic weapons enthusiast.

Yes. You heard me correctly. It's possible, even if it does break brains.

I'll probably go with molotovs, a long metal pipe to whack peoples head in from a safe distance, and finally a kitchenknife as backup.

For the actual make-your-own-weapons part, I'll probably make a slingshot from some wood / metal and rubber, and use broken glass and other sharp pointy things as ammo, should be fun :).

I make arrows out of shards of glass and shafts fashioned from bed planks.
Then I melt down all the metal stuff, and nail big metal plates to a leather jacket.
I then arm myself with my crossbow and sword, and take the fight to the raiders.
Because I am just badass like that.

I would bludgeon them to death with their own limbs.

i'd love to say combine harvester but you know... fall out and all that, i'd use my school tie as a garrote wire and i'd go for camo instead of armour cuz all i can think of is wood and i hear chainsaws cut wood pretty well so i'l pass on that
