    Reel Mower

    I have the Fiskars and it works nicely. It will handle small twigs, nothing too big though. These mowers work best if you cut your grass pretty...

    Flashlight recommendations

    I'd recommend a Surefire. I have a G2 Nitrolon and it is the best light I've ever owned. It is an amazingly tough light. I use a flashlight a lot for...

    People are cold

    68 is about my ideal. My wife likes it warmer. The room with the stove gets to around 74 degrees. That's ok for sitting there in a t shirt...

    Neutralizing water system for well water

    Neutralizing water system for well water

    $1700 seems a little high. The last one I installed was just under $1400. It would be fine to dump it into a sump pump pit. I would also imagine that...

    Neutralizing water system for well water

    You'll probably be looking at $700 to $1000. Most do backwash into the septic system. If you have a marginal drain field, you may not want to add...

    Neutralizing water system for well water

    Who starts fires with a torch instead of paper?

    Torch for me, too. As long as the wood is nice and dry I don't even find I really need kindling in the traditional sense. I just pick a few of the...
