Third (and Final) Amazon Store
Alright! I have now setup my third (and hopefully final) Amazon store. This one is woefully lacking in items listed. This is my oldest blog and I have used so many various resources throughout the years to get to where I am today that I’ll be surprised if I remember them all. I will continually…
I’m Weaving!
Well, after much trial and error (mostly me thinking I was smarter than most others and not having it work at all) I am finally weaving something! I think I posted this link before but this was basically what I did: http://www.theloomybin.com/doc/cwloom/ And, of course, I can’t choose something simple for my first project. This…
Radically Cheap: The Story of Pat Delany, Open Source Machine Tools Advocate

Homemade Corned Beef
I can’t believe I didn’t post about this! I made homemade corned beef last year, leaving out the sugar and the pink salt, and it was fantastic! I thought, well, I could make this, then can it so I know exactly where it came from and what was in it. I haven’t gotten around to…

How To Make High Grade Natural Beeswax Leather Polish and Conditioner
This is GREAT! I’m always running out and what better way to save money (since I have tons of stuff for soap making and haven’t made soap in YEARS) than to be able to make my own!
