      Even a cow if you want milk. We forget that cows are very efficient grass eaters because we use industrial feed lots instead of natural grazing to raise them.

      @@marcvdfv8431 you got me there. Didn’t think of that. On the other hand if you raise a cow outside on the land, do you think they can’t handle themselves. Cows aren’t stupid unless they’ve been raised in a stall. Look at the grazing cows in the mountains of Switzerland. Why don’t they fall off a cliff? because it’s all they know. In America, grazing cattle travel in rough terrain with gullies on the run and don’t hurt themselves. I’m no cowboy either but I would think if raised in that environment they would be ok.

      It's less work and cheaper to cut back the greenery every now and then than to buy, house, feed and care for living creatures - especially if you have no experience.

      @@jen.... while using a gas engine to do it. I can’t agree. There is actually minimal work to have animals then to garden for instance. Growing vegetables is incredibly labour intensive while a few animals can be fed by what’s around them. I was even thinking that she could borrow a few goats or sheep from a nearby shepard once in a while to do the job if she didn’t want the full responsibility. This way she could be away and not worry about having someone come in to care for her animals.

    meant to post this where you are installing the wood burner heater. When we install a burner, we add an elbow about 12 inches (30 mm) below the ceiling and add a four to six foot run of flue pipe then an elbow and go through the roof. The exhaust from the burner warms the extra flue pipe and you recover more heat into the room using less fuel.
    We have done this several times and it works very well. Love what you are doing! Wish we could come and help! Felicidades

    @bstiger6482 5 месяцев назад +1

    Good job, Maya. If your friend helping you knows, at the big drop where there was a 90 degree bend, that should be a wye or tee instead the 90, so a clean-out pipe and cap can be installed up to ground level or higher..That way if something stops up the drop pipe or lower, it can rooted clean. For future information, always use sewer sweeps [large radius 90] or two 45 degree bends when making a turn.. And, in DWV drain pipe and SDR35 sewer pipe,, they do make 22.5 degree bends. But, in your rocky soil conditions, they would need a sand bedding and covering for protection.

    Hi, a great job especially given the limited availability of the fittings you needed. Both Floplast and Marley make adjustable bends for 110mm underground drainage in the UK. Also here we use an orange pipe which has a thicker wall thickness for underground than the grey which is used above ground. But each county has their own rules and traditions.
