A variety of soft and hard wood, an assortment of metals, and a collection of bone samples.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf it\u2019s commercially available, we can get it,\u201d he says, \u201cthough things like diamond cutters are costly, so we still have to exercise some care with how much we spend. We\u2019d rather have natural stuff, and stuff that we can find locally.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhy doesn\u2019t the Garrison have old fashioned guns?\u201d asks HayWire, \u201csurely there are books with detailed plans?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell, there are still a few books like that. Though fewer than we might expect. Everything moved from paper to the internet a long time ago! And obviously there are no computers any more. Nobody can make semi-conductors. Lots of the valuable books in London were lost in The Decimation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>TomTom chips in, \u201cthe big problem with guns is smelting iron ore. Without coal, and with fewer furnaces, they run less often and at lower temperatures. Charcoal doesn\u2019t work as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>JerryMac says, \u201cwe could make shotguns and muskets if we wanted to, it\u2019s been done, but they\u2019re not practical for Garrison use. When resources <em>are<\/em> available, we prefer to use them for cannons and cannon balls. If we lose one ship, we lose a lot of valuable hardware like that.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr width=\"100%\" \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.slenderwolf.com\/novels\/2026\/08\/04\/chapter-27-inventors-club222\/\">Previous<\/a> &#8211; Book1 Page223 \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.slenderwolf.com\/novels\/2026\/08\/06\/chapter-27-inventors-club224\/\">Next<\/a><\/p>\n<hr width=\"100%\" \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Previous &#8211; Book1 Page223 \u2013 Next \u201cWhat\u2019s your name?\u201d \u201cMickey.\u201d \u201cJenifer.\u201d Jenifer Silverman places two of her fingers on her own lips, kisses them, and places those two fingers against his lips.
