Who else reads \"Farm Show\"
It's a bi-monthly news magazine that features home built projects and solutions to problems that crop up on farms. (pardon the poor pun)
I love this rag. And a rag it is, they use a really neat poor quality newsprint, so you know right away their heart's in the right place. AND, no ads!.
Just got my newest edition this afternoon. Haven't read it yet, but looking forward to reading all about "Chicken Litter Diesel Fuel",,,and "Easy Way to Power Any Gate" and then there's "Modified Mower Cuts trees". Last month I got to read about the guy who build a roller coaster, complete with 360 degree loop de loop, in his back yard. All guys after my heart, ingenuity at it's best.
BTW, I have no relationship with the publisher, just a satisfied subscriber.
I'll post or email contact info if anyone wants it. (Don't know if posting is appropiate, someone let me know if it's frowned on.)

Do they feature plans or just the articles? Well worth the subscription rate if they have plans.
I surfed around their website a bit. Looks interesting. Did a "search back issues" found lots of hits on log splitter. They sell a CD of all their back issues, probably a good investment. Wonder if the local library has it for me to check out.

If I rember right you can get a complimentary copy,this way you can have a copy and evaluate it for yourself.
Re: Who else reads \"Farm Show\"
My father-in-law gets it and it is a hoot. I liked a couple of months ago when it showed a guys that built his own tracked vehicle by modifiying a jeep. Really, some of the ideas are really good. Others are things that the persons wanted to do and I think it is good for them to be able to "show off" and lets others see. Regardless, we look forward to each issue.
Re: Who else reads \"Farm Show\"
My issue came in the mail today!
Re: Who else reads \"Farm Show\"
