See that’s the problem with using a homemade tensioner bar. The smooth fonts of the board allow the wires to slip and then the bolt starts to catch and bend up the vertical wires and you fabric has lose wires, that’s not to say you can’t get lucky or better yet a few modifications to the diy tensioner I mean at $200-300 for a decent meter pin lock stretcher it is worth giving it a try if your careful not to destroy the fabric. I’ve used a very small round bar or flat stock and run down the center top to bottom inside of the 2x4, and a slight indentation on the opposite 2x4 not deeper than the metal, this will latch onto the vertical wires whilst clamping down onto the horizontal wire just make sure it’s small not a large bar and don’t use all thread bar as it will eat up your wire and remember done this way you can tie off to your end supported post and pull from inside your run and not have to use a truck, tractor or tree to pull from. Good luck

You can make lots of things with bamboo, shelters, furniture, toys, and more, watch you tube and you will see all the things, you can make. I need that on my property It is as strong as pvc pipe. You can make a bridge and a raft.

Bamboo will not cross a flowing creek if its 6 foot or more wide, the shoots and rhizome water rot before spreading naturally, but if bamboo falls over the creek it could root itself on the other side. I have a 3 acre area surrounded by a horseshoe pattern stream. I planted Japanese timber bamboo which gets up to 6 inches in diameter. The only way to kill off bamboo is to cut it to ground level and when the rhizomes send out new shoots cut those when the first leaves form, continue for 3 to 5 years and the rhizome dies out eventually from no sunlight energy growth.
@GWPHomesteadКүн бұрын
Our neighbors cleared their property of it but it took a lot of work. I’m hoping our goats will graze it as it regrows and we’ll reassess as needed. Thanks for the advice!

That kind of entrepreneurial spirit is why the bamboo is here to begin with 😂 it’s a good idea, but I don’t think it’s right for us right now.

Although generically it is “Power Wheels” but from the quick view of the ride-on I think it is another manufacturers ride-on. The actual Mattel Power wheels are pretty straight forward and simpler pretty much batteries, toggle switches and motors. Some other manufacturers have controller modules that have push button start, engine and horn sounds, etc. I believe that by connecting the 18v you burned out much of the 12v controller board. There are replacements controllers available on Amazon that will work with the higher voltage.

I am trying to understand why so much meat goes into ground. I never butchered a cow, but when I slaughter a yearling sheep I only keep about 10% of the meat on the animal for ground, mostly in trimmings. And this is despite sheep not having larger primals like beef does. I am looking into very similar cuts to yours from a half, but maybe having more ribs (short, back, plate) and keeping the picanha. Is it possible to have more cut as stew meat or "chunks" that I can cut into smaller roasts/fajita/stirfry etc..? I want to keep ground beef closer to 20lbs Thank you
@GWPHomestead4 күн бұрын
It’s going to totally depend on your butcher. This amount of ground beef is pretty standard from my experience. I usually end up with less % from a deer, with more stew meat.
@mistycherie5 күн бұрын
Lots of great plans for additional pasture area for the goats, that is a lot of bamboo too Ragon! Not sure how often they throw up shoots but you can eat them if you catch them small and tender, yumyum in stirfry. (Assuming the type of bamboo doesn't matter, but it might?) Definitely can use some for making fun things like trellis or tiki torches, and other sorts of woodworking things. I think the hat and face shield is awesome, better than having some splinters in your face or eyes. Just need one of those hardhat cupholders with a drinking tube for water or sweet summer iced tea or beverage of choice. 💚
