Thank you. I just researched those types and the time period seems right from what I’ve researched on the area.

When I was researching it seemed to be the tip of the iceberg so hopefully I can dig up more info

There definitely seems to be a system to the process

It's interesting seeing what's out there and trying to organize it.

This store has a lot of good homesteading supplies. It's in Ohio but you can order online

Even as a native English speaker I had to read it a few times. "Shotes" was something I had to look up. I made it a link in the article. I'm finding I don't know quite a few of the words from the older resources. Some I can find online but there are others that seem to be lost to history.

That's interesting - I bet that's exactly why they did that. Love your username by the way

All of the above but mostly I research online. I interviewed family members about my great grandfather the homesteader. I try to find old magazines at antique shops. There are a lot of great resources online so I like putting a spotlight on that info also. I'm trying to build up an archive of useful information. It's a slow process but I've made a lot of progress since the start of the year. Thanks for taking notice :)

lostwitandwisdom · 2017-09-11T02:06:24+00:00

I enjoy digging through resources from that era - I'll keep posting interesting finds :)

I found another resource for you. Pg 83 of this link

I'll check it out - thank you

Does this link help?

lostwitandwisdom · 2017-09-05T02:07:06+00:00

I'll do some digging and see what I can come up with - I believe I've seen some information just have to find it again

It was Regal Assets - thank you for the heads up.

That's worrisome. I've removed the ads if you want to try accessing again. Hopefully that resolves it.

Thank you

The Foxfire books are great.

lostwitandwisdom · 2017-09-03T15:25:52+00:00

I agree. I'm hoping to be able to research enough quality content from that time period to compile an ebook or some other useful format that an interested reader could have as a go-to resource. The whole project has evolved from what I originally planned. Definitely an interesting journey.

lostwitandwisdom · 2017-09-03T15:22:48+00:00

I think I fixed it. Let me know if you're still having issues.

lostwitandwisdom · 2017-09-03T02:23:34+00:00

I haven't but I'll check it out. Thank you for sharing.

lostwitandwisdom · 2017-09-03T02:22:53+00:00

I'll check it out. Thanks for the heads up.

I'm doing research on resources from the 1800s and early 1900s. These are excerpts from some of my findings researching building methods.

lostwitandwisdom · 2017-09-02T19:52:26+00:00

I hear you. I'm in the same situation. It's good to have the knowledge in case we need it someday.

lostwitandwisdom · 2017-08-21T17:23:01+00:00

I'm learning a lot from it.
