I am waiting on a few more parts for a vac system. I am officially glad I do not have buckets out today. I would be chasing them across the county
that is what we have always used. I do not claim it leaves as clean of a hole as an actual tapping bit. but they are designed to drill clean round holes with out tear out. But I am under the...
how heavy of an application? my wife and I tried and tried to kill weeds with it. so far it just stunts them a little.
For the record I would love to use it instead. most weeds we do not bother...
I use toradon on poison ivy. you cut off the largest stem you can find of it. and put ONE DROP on the cut. if it is a big clump start with no more than two stems, well apart from each other. when I...
I use clothes pins to clamp the filter to an old fashioned colander with it in a big pot with a lid over it
I see that as of 1-1-16 the state of Il. has added syrups to the list of foods that can be produced and sold under the new cottage food lic. available via the state. once you have everything from...

It sounds to me like you want to collect the condensate from the inside of the roof. ( it will not be potable but fine for watering gardens and flushing)
I would bet more than even money that with...

I want to try it down here also.
I was shocked today. I saw 8.5 oz Canadian pure maple syrup in the store here for 3.99 for 8.5 oz. what
Stress fractures in glass are no where near always instant. and I suspect it had to do with setting the hot glass on the cool stone. use a rack without much mass so it heats up fast. I even set them...

I used a burner from a commercial radiant heating unit, one with the long tubes that glow.
There used to be a grain drier on this farm so gas line and meter size were not an issue
I just mounted...
I converted our oil arch to natural gas this year. It worked out very well in the end.
The flame pattern was substantially narrower than the oil gun. so I did have to bounce the flame around to get...
great to see it is working out well!
I added a few more the other day also. Should be right at 250 or so now. I had planted 150 about 7 or 8 years ago :)
