    Electric wood stove

    I've been thinking of buying a fake wood stove, an electric stove that looks like a wood stove. I want it to heat a 200 square foot room. I have a propane stove that I have to replace, and we were wondering if the electric stove might even by cheaper. I want a stove that looks like a wood...

    sur pac

    My wife and I talked to a guy we know who does a lot of work on agricultural houses. We asked for a estimate for our work and our driveway will cost about $35,000. The driveway is over 4000 square feet and it costs that for blacktop. But he told me that he can do sur pac for $15000 for all...

    Harbor Freight Tools that don't suck

    When I had my goat dairy farm, I used that stool to sit on when I milked 60 goats. The stool would usually last me a couple of years. For the hard use I gave it, I liked it. Eventually, I either had to replace the wheels or get a new stool. The first time I replaced the wheels, but getting a...

    How many small square bales can a cargo van hold?

    Thanks for all the info. I was thinking of using my flatbed trailer, but even if the van will hold 20 bales at a time, that's all I need. I just have one goat and one sheep as livestock pets, so I don't need to transport a lot. When I had my 103 acre farm and I transported a lot of hay I used a...

    How many small square bales can a cargo van hold?

    I should have been more clear. I use normal sized square bales, usually around 50 pound bales. I will stack them from floor to ceiling. I used to have a cargo van that I used for livestock and other things, but I never put bales in it. I'm guessing it'll hold at least 20 bales, but I'm not sure...

    Vented propane heating stove

    I'd like to replace a vented propane heating stove that I have in my sun room. The room is not heated and is approximately 10 feet by 25 feet. When I bought the house it had a vented propane heating stove, and we've never had one before. Previously we had wood stoves, but this stove is cleaner...

    Difference in Carhartt vs Wrangler

    I wear Wrangler or Rustler jeans, but Carhartt stuff is real high quality but expensive. I have a Carhartt winter jacket that I got at a yard sale that I've had for years and it was probably years old when I got it. It's my favorite winter coat. And I have a Carhartt hooded sweatshirt that I...

    Battery powered hedge trimmers

    Today I went to Home Depot and bought the 60 volt Toro hedge trimmer. It looked like the most solidly built one, and hopefully the 60 volt battery will have good power. I won't have time to use it for a while, but I'll report on how it works.

    We have a bunch of large berry bushes that need trimming. My wife and I were thinking of getting a battery powered hedge trimmer. Anyone have one they would recommend or one that we should stay away from? Home Depot has a 60 volt Greenworks Trimmer that looks interesting, and the price was...

    Dogs wondering off to die?

    I am very sorry for your loss. All dogs are special to their owners. I always have at least 4 dogs, but the best dog I ever had was a Bull mastiff/Neopolitan mastiff mix. Mulder was 185 pounds and incredibly intelligent and loving. Unfortunately, giant breeds don't live long. I lost Mulder...
