    Need help getting started

    Call it cabin fever but I'm looking for something else to give momma reason to question my sanity. I was at my local Cub Cadet dealer today and they were loading up an older (1940s or 50s) Farmall Cub to return to its owner after service. There was also an early model CC lawn tractor on the...

    Compost screen

    I've been screening my compost through a 3' x 5' homemade screen, 1/2 inch mesh. It's placed on sawhorses and I simply shovel the compost on and shake my booty. While this approach is fine for small amounts of compost, I'm turning into a compost wacko and am now building windrows on the order...

    Attaching a block foundation to a pole barn?

    I just finished my pole barn project. Now that it is up, I got this great idea on how to improve it (after the fact, of course). I have 36 feet of south-facing wall that would be ideal to support a lean-to greenhouse. A greenhouse in my neck of the woods needs to be pretty well insulated if I...
