I'm providing for the table by building a new kitchen with a new stove, and I am loving cooking again with it. I've slowed down a bit but still doing my thing. I still hunt and get my red meat, raise chickens for eggs and starting on quail for Thursday night s quail dinner.lol as someone I know does. I'll be be building an expensive kitchen for pennies on the dollar of what it would cost the average person. Simply think ahead.lol I could go into costs of materials, labor, shop expenses but the facts are I can build something custom that I have been wanting and it's fun, because it's almost free for me.
I've invested all my life in wood working tools and an additional,60 yrs old 8" powermatic joiner given by a friend along with a $12000 saw mill for $ 2000 don't hurt none.i have stock piled a shit load of wood . Along with spending a few hundred to build a solar kiln to dry my lumber. Facility for storing was cheap. So, I haven't been growing much tobacco lately but I encourage others to do so .
