    anyone heating with coal?

    lycan, If I was starting from scratch I'd put some serious thought and research into an air to air or even a hybrid system and combine it with a walipini and get 3 birds with one stone. greenhouse/root cellar/mechanical room. In theory this seems like an awesome system. My...

    Build a root cellar?

    Possible that some of the bigger ones were ice houses. They were filled with ice and sawdust to keep ice on hand through the summer months and I suppose some sold ice too. Keep in mind that by 1940 only 25% of rural North Dakota had electricity. They used hand pumps and windmill on the...

    Build a root cellar?

    We have a fieldstone basement under the old house I grew up in, I'm guessing it's about 20x 20 with an outside covered chute and stairs steps in the house. It's the only thing that has kept me from tearing the old house down, I want to preserve that basement some how. All I know about...

    That's impressive PG, You did a good job on it. Trying to find out more about Thomas Hansen, He was born on a farm near Valley City in 1895 and ended up in a wheelchair when he was just a kid so he carved pairs of birds probably for fun and I suppose for spending money. His carvings are...

    PG Who was the author ? We picked up a few old medical books over the years and they are fun to page through. Some are worth quite a bit and others not so much, One is a detailed medicine making recipe book that is pretty rare. Its amazing to me how prevalent cannabis and other herbs...

    Fish recycling!

    WW that's pretty much how I built mine , I started with aluminum tank and used pipe for vertical shaft and the harrow springs slid over the shaft. Weight was my main concern , I wanted to be able to load it and move it around by hand.

    Fish recycling!

    How long of a shaft are you thinking ? You will most likely need a way to stabilize it at the bottom, bearings don't like water so a brass bushing is next in line and that's where high RPMs can be a challenge - - - Updated - - - Are you thinking something you can drop into your existing...

    I'd trade you a jiffy powerhead for that Dixon and we would both be happy. For sure you will need some sort of gear reduction with that motor. I built a 300 gallon mixing tank for mixing gel and grout in drilling fluids and used hydraulic drive and harrow teeth. Even with harrow...

    Coyote Ugly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    That looks tight for a shotgun too unless it was a life or death situation. Amazing how a stun gun drops the biggest toughest of dudes on the spot all the coyote did was yelp and run .

    Coyote Ugly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    The officer that shot it with a stun gun did the right thing IMO, Too many people in the background to be slinging lead at a coyote.
