Aluminum foil tape is for waterproofing, incase of rain while sitting in the bed of a truck/etc. The duct tape is there just incase the latchs fail, and it also keeps everything tight.
I am considering replacing the duct tape with nylon banding, the type you typically see used in the shipping industry.
I will answer 3, as soon as I have everything sorted (couple days).
The random assortment of #10 cans you see in the photos are for illustration purposes. Somewhere around here I have my notes, where I used fuzzy math to determine that 64 #10 cans will sustain two adults for 90 days @ 3 square meals per day (based on min calorie count).
The thought process is......8 of the 16 cans are a quagmire of Mountainhouse entrees,freeze dried meats, dehydrated vegetables; the other 8 cans will be staples, rice, beans, oats, flour, etc. I will give a complete breakdown and have it critiqued; I posted without first having all my ducks in a row.
