Description
|
|
|
|
This book, originally published in 1909, is both a tribute to American ingenuity and innovation and a resource for today's homeowners and homesteaders working to become more self-sufficient. Illustrated with black and white drawings, here are hundreds of clever ways to transform your home, farm, or ranch using scrap material and items readily available from the hardware store or lumberyard. Build a homemade water cooler, a folding chicken roost, a garden stool, a fruit picker, or a small bridge for crossing streams on your property. Here too are a treadmill that can power a dairy separator and churn, a drinking fountain for chickens, a rig for moving large trees, a self-feeder for bees, and gates that lift over snowdrifts.
