Today we present a guest post by the well-known video blogger Wranglerstar. His fascinating blog chronicles his many projects at his full-time retreat in the Pacific Northwest, in the shadow of the Cascade mountains. He and his wife emphasize practical “how to” educational segments on tools, skills, and old-fashioned technologies for self-sufficiency. I highly recommend that you dig through the archives of his video blogs, which are rapidly growing. They include a great wealth of practical knowledge and will help you avoid some frequent pitfalls.
