Several large sheets of thick plywood, some boxes of 3" wood screws, and a cordless drill with extra batteries . . . seal doors and windows in minutes!!

I live in a two story house with only one access to the upstairs.  Throw down the plywood, screw it in, and I am sealed from all zombie intrusions . . . with portable ladders to lower when I need to go forage for supplies!

You've got great descriptions and ideas on your guide! I don't have alot of info to hand out and it's probably been discussed before, but this is what I came up with a while ago:

1: Don't just look for the movie-style baseball bat or bladed weapon to arm yourself if you don't have a projectile (although they are preferred). Keep in mind the fact that almost anything can be used as a weapon. See a wooden fence nearby? If you have a few seconds, tear a chunk of wood from it and go for the head. Removable shelves, medium-sized electronics, floor fans... If it's solid, has some weight and you can easily swing it without wearing yourself out easily, it can be used.

2: Bundle up, but not too much. Too little clothing, you're as easily accessed as popcorn chicken, but too much will make you as mobile and agile as a drunk man with his pants around his ankles. A couple layers of leather should do the trick. The stronger clothing you wear, the harder it will be for them to reach your skin when they bite or claw, giving you more chance if you do get caught in the shuffle. Adding lightweight gloves to the list might not be a bad idea as well. And It will probably make you look like a moron, but helmets can save your life in this situation for the same reason as thick clothing. Preferably, use full-headed motorbike helmets that usually have shatter-resistant visors (just make sure it isn't occupied by a beheaded owner first, just in case...).

3: It might be a good idea to wear a filtering mask of some sort, such as surgical masks, gas masks, or even a cloth. Whatever disease causes the zombification process may be airborne, plus it might help ease the stench if you're down-wind of a shambling of zombies, which may give you more focus on surviving.

4: Not every shambling body is a zombie. If you hack away at everyone you see, you may dismember someone who might have helped you, or you may even be mistaken for a crazed zombie if someone were to see you. On the flip side, freshly dead/infected zombies may be mistaken for living people, depending on lighting conditions, the way in which they were assimilated or possible lack of sleep (both theirs or your own). Who knows? They might have given up recently, gone stupid and gave themselves to a zombie or maybe bitten vampire-style in their sleep, thus having no defense wounds or numerous claw marks to make them look disfigured. Make sure they speak recognizable words (unless they're foreign Wink) before you sing your praises when you see a non-decomposed stranger.

5: The local supermarket such as Walmart or the like may be a good place for food supplies and maybe guns and ammo in the hunting supplies section, if there is one. Just be wary of zombies already there looking for a good bargain on human meat.

Zombies, zombies!  The only survival guides I find are about zombies and most recently, vampires!  Come on people!  We need a survival guide against another threat!  Aliens!  There is a good chance that the exist and might want to kill us!  We need a real stragedy to fight against them!

Anyways, interesting survival guide for attacks against zombies.

I have a mostly-finished werewolf survival guide, and a roughed-out alien invasion survival guide.  Just need to get around to finishing them.

Dear Puppet Master,
I followed Your tutorial with interest. I' m thinking along this lines for years and rigged up an emergency kit, that also covers Zombie situations.
For the protective cloth. I found two items that might be nearly ideal. The first is a so called Sharksuit. It is in fact a chainmailsuit, like the old knights used, covering the hole body, made from stainless steal. It protects, as prooven, against shark bites and is used by skubadivers. I don't think zombies can bite harder than sharks. So it might be good protection, even so it is quite heavy.
The second seems to me even more ideal. It's a protectifsuit for people working with chainsaws and similar devices. It looks like a normal worksuit, but has a Kevlar lining. It is light and stops prooven even a chainsaw, so I think zombies won't bite through and it also gives cover against the zombie saliva, witch seems to me be the most plausible source of infection. I will wear a motocross helmet with it gives cover for the complete head and has a brought visor. Further I placed signs "Living Human" on breast and back, to minimize the risk of being shot by another surviver.
An other Item I chose as well as tool as as weapon is a mountain- or climberspick. It is light, most parts are alloy, but You can use it very efficiently on obstacles and human crania. Oh, yes, You should ad a rope to Your equipment. It might come handy in fast exiting a building and a lot other things.

Definitely on to something there.. Plus they'd lack the agility to climb up.  When I first saw Shaun Of The Dead, I was thinking that if there was a way onto the roof they should try to quickly scrounge some blankets, ammo and food and head up there.  In case zombies got up the stairs that takes them to the roof they should put something heavy over the top and block it off.

The one thing I will say, which OP mentions, is the best gun for zombies is probably a 22 rifle.  It's reasonable accurate out to 100 yards, will penetrate a human skull at a decent distance, is very quiet and light, and you can easily carry like 10,000 rounds in a backpack.  Not to mention, it's an excellent round for foraging small game, like squirrel, rabbit, etc - if you're good with one, you can even take deer and other mid-sized game.

For portability, I might suggest something like this:



It's the Ruger 10/22, cut down to a pistol size.  Still has a 10" barrel, a built in bipod for stabilized shots, and is small enough to easily carry on your person with a sling or oversized holster.  You can also get 50 round magazines for it, which is nice.

That is the one funny thing about zombie survival stuff.  Most of what the zombie survival guys (there's a sizeable community - we have a group called the Zombie Squad here in St. Louis) look into or are prepared for translates pretty well into a far more likely government/social breakdown scenario..  So, there is some slight possibility of such prep actually being useful.  If nothing else, you'll get some good camping gear and weapons out of it.

You wont believe this!
I'm working for security at a chemical plant so it is totally naturally that I'm concerned with any kind of emergency plans and also naturally I'm concerned about a zombie outbreak at my plant. You see, chemical works are nearly endangered as secret military facilities. So I made a zombie alarm plan. It took me nearly a week, but was as far as I know, quite clever. I would concentrate the survivors in the lowest basement level of the parkinghouse. So that intervention troops can use radical weaponry, with little risk of collateral damages. Further this space would be easy to defend even with improvised arms.
But . . . believe it or not!
They laughed about it!
They even canceled my order for H&K MP5s, 10.000 rounds of ammo, bite protected suits and a load of K-rations!
But I tell You. Who will have the last laugh when I entrenched in my make shift bunker and they stand outside begging me to let 'em in? HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA ! . . . . .
