I purchased some evergreen trees online to use as wind breaks and to block out views of the neighbors. Some on Amazon: https://amzn.to/2RLo7nf . These came out to about $2 USD per tree and where shipped moist in a wax box. That is very cheap for trees.
These trees get very tall and grow fast making them an excellent choice for quick privacy.

I show an easy way to remove a stuck bearing race from a shaft if you are stuck without a bearing puller or other type tools.
The bearing on my 14′ batwing shredder was worn out and needed to be replaced. I ordered the correct tapered bearing but needed to remove the old race before installing the new bearing.
This simple hack works for a lot of things that are stuck around a shaft. This little hack will get you out of a jam!

Do you have a Ryobi 40 volt electric mower? Did it just stop working on you all of a sudden or after the winter break? Cheap replacement batteries on Amazon: https://amzn.to/2ZNMIMK
I pulled the mower apart and found what’s causing the issue.

We built a 40′ x 80′ x 16′ pole barn with a 4″ concrete pad on the property to use as a shop and RV cover. This video shows it from start to finish in 10 minutes.
The pole barn was built by a small building company in Central Texas and cost us about $45,000 total including the pad. That did not include the wiring and lights, but pretty much everything else in the video.
Our pole building is not planned to be a house or barndominium home. The foundation is more of just a concrete pad than a load bearing foundation. That’s pretty common for pole barns.
A pole barn is one of the easier type of barn builds. I was going to do it myself, but after adding it all up for materials and concrete it came very close to what I could just pay someone to do it for me. It would have taken me a lot longer to build also by myself.
Pole barns are basically just post and beam buildings. You put posts in the ground and you use trusses to connect the roof. The wood purlins are there to hold on the sheet metal and that is about it.

When I search Google for Seidel Ranch, it seems to know a lot about a small airport in Elroy, TX called Seidel Ranch Airport. I don’t think this airport is around anymore. This location does not show any type of runway. These are the details I found on this airport, but I can’t find it on satellite images:
Name: Seidel Ranch Airport
