Someone mentioned runic alphabet, what about runestones? Carving a soapstone Thor's Hammer would be a relatively easy mold. But hot metal and kids could be problematic. Cast them off site and then show how to cast one if you are going to give them to the students.  Zamac is pewter like and a bit cheaper.

String them up to make ristras. I learned last year about "Sweet Hots" hot peppers pickled with a bread-and-butter pickle style brine that I really enjoyed.

The culvert is made to have a constant water flow. 12 gauge happens to be quite a bit cheaper than 10 gauge. Though a bitumen coating over the galvanized is available I don't think it is necessary for this application. I am not sure what the bitumen coating would do to address condensation if anything. A customer has a spray foam business so a consideration for condensation. My steel guy will be coming back next Wed. with a final quote.

Found this burl while walking dogs, probably end up as garden art.

After roofing the Costco shed nearly identical will be about 2k

I have been beating my head over building a storage shed for the wife's lawn tractor. Had a wooden one delivered by Costo but as things go it is now storing other implements. Today I decided I'll order a 10ft culvert 10 ft long. The culvert bolts together so that would give me two 10 x 10 sections allowing me to construct 10x20 ft Quonset hut, which is acceptable to build without a permit. 4 ft pony walls to give added head room. Might be a great tiny house start.

My new plant this year prairie turnip something I was aware of that grew in Wyoming when I was growing up but never tried. Located a source from a grassland restoration group. I'm hoping my high desert will be a good fit. Anyone growing them?

Connie, If you don't mind handling them a regular cow skull can bring in a 100.00 bill. Look on Etsy. A friend burns lasers designs on them and sells them for as much as 500.00 depending on design complexity.

I'm shooting for a higher ABV than Skeeter Pee. that's why I am using one of the ninja yeasts.  Something between my homemade limoncello and the Skeeter Pee.
