I was reading about a guy that was pretty ingenious. He moved o Idaho in a tiny cabin back in the late 70's and pretty near froze that first...
I started in a tiny house long before it was all the rage, and just added on as I needed to. It saved me a lot of money over the years because I...
Mine was a 1965 John Deere 1010 bulldozer. I was 10 years old and got my first moving violation from it. I saw the deputy sheriff sitting up the...
I think people see a fallen down tree, think to those cellophane wrapped bundles at teh store for $4.50 and then do a quick mental calculation of...
We call it Essence of Lager, putting a little old English spin on the name, but may negatively make people think of beer instead of loggers. I...
Yeah he has a thresher too. It started when I sold (10) lambs and only made $75 per head on them. It just seemed all the land that is tied up in...
She is in rough shape. Sorry for no pictures yet. My father was saying a friend of mine/neighbor had all kinds of threshing equipment and so a...
I picked up a few things today. In really sad shape, but maybe fixable; the old stuff typically can be. A 1930ish water tank and spray pump And...
I had a deal like that this fall, but it was regarding "free lambs". I am all up for free lambs, some people cannot kill them, but I sure can. So...

Who said some enterprising couple on here does not already make such a cologne? My wife and I got into it when a lot of people commented on how I...
I had a stand here that has some pretty big trees on it so I cut a few down and averaged around 85 years old...yep, that sounds about right. The...
He had a Central Boiler and the draft fan shorted out. That sent sparks down to chainsaw chips from where he bucked up his slab wood coming off...
We have been here for awhile so I know some of the history of the stands I cut wood in. On one, you could see how tight the rings were in White...
Years ago my father used to use a chain to knock the soot out, but now we all have brushes and it works better I think. I brushed out my stove...
I don't think so, I think it is just a hold out to the old days. Farmers would farm in summer and log in winter, and while I am a dying breed for...
I do not soak my wood, but I just cut green wood, mostly preferring cedar or apple wood to smoke my meat. Being on the coast, cedar planked salmon...
I have been building this house for the past 20 years and while it seems it gets continually bigger, the wife and I are actually thinking about...
Here in New England logging was always done in the winter, but some of that tradition still remains. Obviously skidders making going up adverse...
They were going to pass a lot of regulations here on outdoor wood boilers but I don't think they ever did, or if they did, no one is enforcing...
