  • On many occasions, a lumber of smaller dimension and length is needed for a variety of things on the small farm or homestead. Palings, pickets, and clapboards are all shorter pieces of lumber that may be made without the use of a sawmill, being split or riven by hand with a froe and mallet. In this Farm Hand’s Companion Farm Bulletin #18, Pa Mac demonstrates the making and use of palings, pickets, and clapboards.

    I really enjoyed this one. I've rived plenty of palings myself, but there were some awesome nuggets in this video!

    Herrick Kimball of Planet Whizbang online, at one time had for sale pages from a very old book that was first printed in Colorado, I think in the late 1800s, that he offered for download, showing these many, many, many valuable homestead solutions, as PaMac has!

    Yeah at some point I need to finish the three froe's I started so I can do this but yeah were still building foundations for our house so no need to do this just yet...good video Pa!

    And who knows that many things for the homestead may very soon be in short supply, and ingenuity like PaMac's will and must kick-in. Better learn it now, for later there may be no you tube!

    Can the old foxfire series be purchased? I remember, as a child in the '70's, many of our neighbors were interviewed by the Foxfire writers for the series.
    I guess I should just Google it!
    Great stuff sir!
    Oops never mind!
    Found your video on it! 😂

      Wow. That's the neatest thing I've heard in a while. Do you happen to remember any of the neighbor's names that made it to the books?

      @@farmhandscompanion Yes, one in particular. Ruby and Harvey Dudley. They were our neighbors but not sure they are in the series by name or not. Ruby was an excellent source for medicinal herbs Harvey was a chief mechanic for American Motor Cars and knew everything! Lol.
      They were our baby sitters and basically family, way back in the '70's. Best people on Earth really. 👍
