Also how I sun bleach them on the roof. The easy way, that takes a lot of time. Here is a link to the skull hangers on amazon. https://amzn.to/3QiVrjC

This is testing loads to make sure the powder and load cycle the gun. Then I can make a ladder round set to test the various loads for the best load to use. A good shooting cartridge is not any good if it will not cycle the gun. Ladder set failure and making this cycle test is posted on my blog here. https://archeryrob1.wordpress.com/2024/03/24/6-8-spc-ladder-failure-with-4227/

This is a test of using wheel weight lead cut with pure lead to reduce the hardness and try and get better expansion and still keep accuracy. I am thinking it works fairly well, but I need to practice with the Glock more. I don't shoot it enough and am just more comfortable with my 1858 revolver.

This is the ozone closet setup I made for removing the scent from my clothes. One thing I did not explain in the video is if you have not run this in a day or two, the ozone will be gone. The ozone half life is short and can be gone in a day or two depending on conditions. Sometimes I re-run it when I have not hunted in a while. Such as winter work weeks and hunting Saturday morning. I will probably run it Friday night again. I think fresh ozone on your clothes helps with scent you make while walking in. This is the unit I used, and purchased from Amazon, for my closet and is shown on the video. This was the original unit they had with their logo on it. They have since switched to a small unit. But this will work for what you need. WSTA Portable Ozone Generator - https://amzn.to/3f4wCoC The links above are of products I use in the video.

This Liverwurst to some and Braunschweiger to me and others and it is a form of Pâté. I wanted to make Pâté out of Venison livers and saw a recipe by the Drunk chef using pig livers. I ended up adapting his recipe for the size and qualities that would match using deer livers in place. This is the end of that process and my favorite way to eat deer livers. More explanation and the recipe can be found on my blog post for this.

When making your own sausages, summer sausages or bologna you need to know about how much fat to add into the mixture. Or at least if you are using pork or beef, you should know which cuts of meat to buy and if they need fat or not added. The proper amount of fat in your sausages can actually make the spices more accessible to your tongue and improve the flavor. Plus no one likes dry, crumbly sausages. Here is the link so you can download the excel sheet to your own computer to make the calculations and save it for later use. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1m7lK5Ycflc8qPtg_A4tmO3qr_clLTkjz/view?usp=sharing My blog post also covers this, in case I missed anything. https://archeryrob.wordpress.com/2018/05/01/fat-content-calculator/

With the dimensions I used this feeder easily holds 10 gallons of feed. The slide ramp at the bottom always keeps the food moving from top to bottom and there is never a place for old food to rest and get wasted. This can hold enough feeder for 20 or chickens all week. There is a view port to be able to see how full the feeder is and this is mounted on the wall opposite the nesting boxes so we can check feed while collecting eggs. Here is the link to my blog post on making one. https://archeryrob.wordpress.com/2019/08/19/large-wall-mount-chicken-feeder/ Here is the link to the thread on Backyard Chickens were JT Thorton made the original design. https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/feeder-build.1208719/

This shows a manually activated, automatically locking chicken coop door that you can raise and lowered from outside the coop and run and will lock when lowered at night. It is made with simple supplies you could have laying around.

This video shows a larger 15 gallon chicken waterer with horizontal nipples that will keep 24 chickens in water for a week. We normally use apple cider vinegar in it for two weeks and then 1/2 a tablespoon of bleach to 15 gallons to kill algae on the third week. Then back to ACV the next week. A stock tank heater in the bottom in the winter and these nipples do not freeze as the water cups do, but the chickens waste more water with them, but water is free from my well.

This is a video covering how we made a DIY deer cooler, on the cheap, to be able to hunt and process our deer the next day or a few days later in the hot weather. You could use this to age your deer also in unstable weather as we have in Maryland. We used two temperature controllers to trick an air conditioner to run at lower temperatures and make a cooler box. The first closes the circuit and tells the compressor to run. The second monitors the coil and opens the circuit and turns the compressor off when the coil starts to freeze up. If you have it set for the fan to run 24/7 it will de-ice the coil and still force cool air into the cooler. If the coil freezes the air conditioner will overload and trip out the breaker, if not burning it self up.
