MACHINING SHOP AT ‘THE SANCTUARY’
In our pursuit of self-sufficiency, it is crucial that we excel in the field of machining for various reasons. Firstly, given the remote location of ‘The Sanctuary’, it is essential to develop a strong foundation in this craft to increase independence.
Moreover, in a rapidly changing and uncertain economic environment, there is a possibility of limited access to machining services. Therefore, it is vital for us to acquire a high level of proficiency in machining skills. This will greatly enhance our chances of survival in the event of an economic crisis. By cultivating our expertise in this area, we will be able to produce top-notch parts for automotive, household, and other repairs, even without relying on external support.
Our Expert Episodes will go beyond just acquiring basic skills. We will place emphasis on refining the ability to interpret intricate technical drawings, configuring HAAS CNC mills, gaining expertise in HAAS proprietary G-CODE programs, and optimizing machine parameters on manual as well as CNC machines.
EXPLORING THE FULL SPECTRUM OF SELF-DEFENSE
We are thrilled to collaborate with a diverse group of self-defense experts for these expert episodes. Our goal is to showcase how these selections of various fighting arts seamlessly collaborate under the umbrella of ‘Tactical Combat Systems’, a system that was originated and developed by our director, Walter Schmidt, in 1992.
The self-defense episodes aim to showcase the mastery of martial arts, encompassing both traditional styles and modern applications. Throughout this exhilarating journey, we will embark on travels to Japan, China, Australia, and the United States, providing us with extraordinary opportunities to train with some of the world’s most skilled martial arts masters. These masters specialize in traditional disciplines such as Wing Chun, Kenjutsu, Escrima, and modern applications of MMA.
In the next phase, we will delve into firearms selection and training. Here, we will collaborate with former military special operators to shed light on realistic combat. Our focus will be on exploring various firearms systems for various applications that range from close-range to ultra-long-range weapons. The training program will highlight a wide range of scenarios, including Vehicle Combat Tactics, Active Shooter Strategies, Close Quarter Battle, Clearing Buildings, Core Fundamentals for Precision Shooting, and advanced Long Range Shooting techniques.
