Rainwater Harvesting to Hauling Water - A Problem, A Solution and a Perfectly Random Monsoon Rain!
HomesteadonomicsWhen you are presented with problems, you need to find solutions. With the lack of rainwater we've had this last year, hauling water in the truck became a viable 'bandaid' until the next rains hit. In this video I'll give you my thoughts on problem solving, take you on a trip to get water, show how I transfer that water to our storage tanks, as well as how I welded up a weight distribution tray for an IBC tote to sit in the bed of my truck. I little DIY, a little Philosophy and a bit of a redneck and his dog hauling water;) ....oh yes, and some monsoon footage too!

An Auger to Hang String Lights? Yep.... I'm really good at making simple projects complex ;)
HomesteadonomicsString lights? Edison Bulbs? Whatever the heck you call em'.... I'm hanging them with the help of a 40V post hole auger, some turnbuckles and a 100lbs of steel and concrete. Probably a little more complex than it needed to be..... but they do look great!

DIY Fuel Storage Box - A Simple Solution for Flammables, Solvents, Thinners, Finishes, etc
HomesteadonomicsFor years I've kept a small supply of fuel on hand for a variety of practical and prudent needs: Fueling yard equipment, ATV's, generators, emergency needs, etc,. But I've never had a specific place to store them out of the sun and protected from wildfires, elements, etc,. So today I'm making a simple fuel storage box for our small fuel supply. At the end I try to address many questions i think folks might have. But if you have another, feel free to post in the comments.
