I'd like to make a suggestion to save you a TON of propane. The burner y'all are using is WAY too big and WAY too far away from the bottom of the pot! That size burner is intended for really huge pots that people use to boil crawfish or deep fry turkeys! I would look online for a place that sells something more like a residential stovetop burner. Trust me you will thank me when you discover how much propane this will save you! Also, if y'all use a 25-gallon propane tank you will get much greater use per gallon. As a 25-gallon tank gains more expansion space it has more cubic inches to turn the liquid propane into a gas vapor! In other words, you get better -miles per gallon- (so to speak) by using a bigger tank!

Your number one free resource is wood. Cut ten trees down and rent a portable saw mill for a weekend and make enough boards to last you five years. For around 100 bucks. Build a Moravian workbench and make everything by hand for free. It-s hard work being areal forest hippy. Oh, and ffs build a cart and stop carrying heavy loads all over the place, you-ll ruin your back.

like the videos although have to agree the click bait thumbnails make me inclined to bypass them. It happens wayyyyy too often these days and only makes you look bad. This is the internet if we want to see a naked girl it's only a click away. False promises just lower our respect guys. just a thought. cause you really don't need it to make the videos worth watching.

It looks like you're going to build a house with all that wood! If you had a different trailer you could have got the load closer (less work, but of course, you know that. In time you will be better equipped and get things finished quicker and easier.

Put heavy bags of anything on your shoulder leaned against your head and hold with your hand. Lean sheets of big pieces of wood in one hand and lean the top against your shoulder or back. My dad a carpenter tough me these tricks and it makes carry very easy.

Just a concern for you guys to think about. I notice you use Amazon a lot. This company must surely be at odds with your stated low impact or earth footprint. They also pay dreadful wages and have awful conditions of service for their workers.

So, if U'r boring of mealing the bones with 'the thing' (I don't know the English word of it) of the top of the coffee grinder, you can put one of your cordless screwdriver on it. So I'll do it (not a joke. Greats from Germany

You should try Dr Bronner's 19/1 hemp based soap. It can be used as a body wash, laundry/dish soap and even tooth paste base. Also, overalls rock, I haven't worn those since my teens growing up on Gran and PA's farm in Louisiana.

I use an amazing product it's a washer ball. You dont use soap. I just use essential oils. You agitate and drain. One step. No suds, no costly soap, less water. You can get them from Amazon!
