My dad's old foldable army shovel, TF2 soldier style. Maggots! *thud* Give me a knife sharpener and I'll make myself an improvised Lobotomiser.
Makeshift zombie weapons.

In all reality, if you don't have a gun during the zombie apocalypse, you're probably proper fucked. But a crowbar is probably the best thing I've got just lying around.
Well id probably go with some tools from around the house till i could get to the mall like thing with a sports shop where i can get hunting guns and gather protein rich foods 
So im guessing Shovel, Kitchen knifes, Homemade cannon( cylinder like thing with some new years explosives or somewhat like that and a rock. i just want to try this once). Baseball bat, spork, Hammer and badly made katana look alike, the katana are dull and would fall apart after to much use but the tip is sharp enough for stabbing. Id probably try to get into a car and take the dog with me........ and throw dog treats at zombies to make a Treatseeking jumpsile!! (missile+Jumping dog=Jumpsile)

wow. You've been preparing for this for a while i take it?bigolbear said:
OT: Gold restoring/cleaning powder stuff, lots of it, a hot-air balloon, and a large backyard plasticy pool filled with water.
Mix together, rain down on zombies, hide until it destroys all their brain tissue.
Science wins again.
FYI: the gold powder stuff, while i don't know exactly what its called, isn't regulated for anyone under 18 and can kill a person in under a minute.
I think I'd just grab my bow from my room and tie some rags onto the arrows. Little fuel and bingo flaming zombies. I could also make some molitoves. Other then that there's a garage full of electric tools. Can you say "Improvised Labotomy".
All these comments about razor blades on hockey sticks and boards with nails in are good against humans but bad against zombies. You need to remove the head or destroy the brain, not settle for a little facial scarring.
And as for fire - thats a terrible idea. Zombies don't feel pain. It just means you have a zombie that is ON FIRE after you instead. And thats like, double bad.
A sharpened metal pole is good, or a trench spike [http://www.dkimages.com/discover/previews/781/587068.JPG] for close combat (which you really don't want, but the smaller item is less unwieldy.)
Something like a spade is good as it's light and relatively easy to handle. Sharpen the edges and it would make a good weapon, plus it's available pretty much anywhere, you don't have to break into a police station to get one. Axes are good but only have one striking side and tend to be heavier (as they require weight when being swung against a tree.) so I'd reccomend hanging onto a lighter item that does probabaly the same amount of damage.
Always keep a sidearm on you, prefereably silenced if possible, though most people aren't realistically going to have that. A common household toolbelt with a large selection of screwdrivers can be handy as you can whip one out and jam it in the zombies temple, only make sure you don't put too many screwdrivers in as chances are at some point you may fall over, and we wouldn't want you harming yourself! Remember - Safety First!
I live in the UK, so guns really aren't much of an option. If push came to shove, there is several army barracks within half hour drives but the security is tough. THese places will clam up solid at the first sign of a zombie infection and with any sense will be no-go areas. There is, however, a large shooting range, Bisley Ranges, not far from here, which will be a good place not only for weaponary and ammunition, but also is the hangout of the "Artists Club" (AKA retired SAS) and therefore will be a good place to hook up with a team!
Looking around the house now I have a few air rifles and bits and pieces but would have to tool up with the spade idea, as well as taking a bayonet I have.

I'm confused as to how a flamethrower is so useful.
Unless they're afraid of fire, than yes I agree, but let's assume they're not. If you're indoors that's bad because not only the initial fire risk you're putting yourself in, but if this particular brand of zombie feels no pain, what is fire going to do? It won't do anything until it completely burns away their muscles.
Until then, congratulations, you've made a zombie torch that is still moving towards you.
But in response to the question, I'd get a wooden cylinder to grab with one hand, and then a sharp piece of wood to wedge perpendicularly to it (like Sao Feng's thingy on Pirates 3). Then I'd have a sharp object I could punch directly into the brain and remove quickly.

My air rifle and air pistol, Cap 'em in the knees at long range with the rifle then pop 'em in the head close up with the pistol.
Also there a weedkiller/flamethrower in the garage, rig it up with a few cans of deoderant and i'll buy my self enough time to get to safety i'd say

I would take the bones of my fallen comrades and fashion a impaling weapon of sorts from their ribcage(s). If fallen comrades are in short supply it would be easy to make some or resort to hand to hand combat with an infected or zombie as they are commonly called and harvest their body mass to create similar weapons.
