Any where I see old pallets laying around I ask if they are throwing them away. If so I get them and stack hay on them. After they rot, I burn them in a barrel in the winter while working around the barn on cold mornings.

I stockpile for future use (everything). I yardsail religously. I buy my tires used and dicker. I am planning a trip to mexico to buy cattle drugs at a discount. I figure my vehicle costs by month and per mile. I don't care what they look like.
I hope this doesn't make me a crazy person. My buddies believe it does.
No it doesn't sound bad as I am as tight as a crab's ass and thats waterproof.
they used to sell a cheap vent that filtered the dryer heat - but I've always taken off the hose - plugged up the hole to the outside - and just put an old pair of nylons on the hose to act as a filter - why pay for heat that goes outside and pay to run the humidifier?????Beef11":o0ylxzm4 said:I want to figure out a way to convert my dryer vent to usable heat.
