I am talking about pressure canning, the geek in me knows the pressure comes from steam, so I guess that is why I listed it that way

I read of a 18-20 pint jar capacity for a 20-22 quart canner. How do you get that many in, they must be stacked in two layers. I would think you would need something between the two.

I got a good deal on about 1/2 bushel of Roma Tomatoes. I have already made and caned some salsa, but now I want to do some spaghetti/pizza sauce. I don’t actually know how to...

Does anyone know if Raspberrie canes will push through a woodchip mulch?

I'm a bit confused on your floors. Are you saying you have in effect a crawl space under your basement floor?

Checked their web site and they had a class 3 days ago 20 miles from where I lived. Guess I missed that one.

This will be a walk-out basement and I don't really know what I want. It is hard to find any comparitave information on the different systems

I'm going to start building a house in the spring and want to use ICF's for at least the basement. Any one that has used them like to share how they picked the system you went with?

I know where there is a ton of tomatos and was wondering about what it takes to "Sun-Dry" them. I always liked them in pasta dishes. Is it as simple as sliceing them and putting them in the sun?

Good thing I asked, I suspected so since I've never seen any.

My wife’s Aunt has been a small scale veritable truck farmer for 50+ years and is going retiring. She has some stuff to sell that would be valued by others farming 5-20 acres. ...

I'll be building a house this year and am considering an outdoor wood furnace. I look on the web and find several manufactures making conflicting claims about what to look for. Can those of you who...

I would think if you had access to a disc it would do a good job.

Learned from others on the web that it should only be used fur bucking logs. If you keep the safety guards on (mine is missing one) and just use it for what it is intended for it is easier on your...

I got this saw from my father-in-law who got it from someone else and so on. Besides a regular bar it came with a very odd bar. My father-in-law thinks he was told it is a bow bar. Does anybody...

Found a place for anyone else in the same boat I'm in (sinking).

I'm thinking milling too, but I don't know if the saw is big enough. It sure weighs alot, but I don't know if that directly relates to milling ability.

I have a large older chain saw that is a Partner brand, model 85. Does anyone know where I can get parts for it?

Thanks

I don't have any logs currently, but may try to get some in the future. My mothers family owns some land about 3 hours away and I may go up there to get some, but they have a sawmill a mile or two...

Anyone have any experence with drying their own lumber? I like the idea of going from oak tree to woodworking project as a long term project with my son.

I was told by some guys putting up new poles that you can buy old ones at the "Wixom Pole Yard" for $1 per foot. It is on Wixom Rd. just north of I-96. Just in case you need some for a project.

Where do you buy your Smart Panels? I live in Ypsilanti so I must be near you.

As much as I hate the thought I think I'm going to need a portable building on my site due to some strange (to me anyway) zoning issues. Any one have any experenced they wish to share? I looking to...
