It’s so nice to see you’re handy also. I get people asking me on my videos how come I’m so young and know about construction since I’m remodeling an old 1800’s cabin on my land. Anyone can learn just about anything by reading books, googling and YouTubing stuff, obviously books being the most reliable source of knowledge. Cheers AP

Adding a few drops of tool oil in the air inlet of the tool every time you use it will help to keep everything lubricated internally. That will extend the life of your tool. You can also get an inline tool oiler which makes oiling easier.

Great job on the fuel shed!😁. And your bunker came on Nice too!😁. I am Glad that you and your family have an efficient size water tank! I’ve been telling people to have their own water supply so they’ll be prepared incase it’s needed! (drought, or if their area shuts water supply off, etc.). At least in the winter, y’all have the snow❄️and can melt it and heat it up! Your fur baby is cute, especially when you said “speak”😁and he did! Many Continued Blessings to you, family and your followers!

My mom has 2 600 gal propane tanks buried underground for her whole house generator. Her HOA won't let them have propane above ground because of how it looks. It only took them a hour to do the job. She has a whole house gas generator too I keep telling her to keep it but she's bound and determined to get rid of it, mainly because she can't deal with its weight and doesn't want to store gasoline.

I live in a mobile home park and my neighbor to the south is wheelchair bound and weighs 600 lbs. She cannot get out her house because her ramp breaks under her weight. It's just not safe.

If gas was treated with STABIL, it would be okay. If is WAS NOT ,please DO NOT EVEN START CAR, the gas in car tank turns into goo. It glues up the carburetor, fuel lines,and fuel filters. I strongly suggest calling a garage mechanic before trying to start your parked vehicle.
