      Lots of 80/20 rule thinking on prepping, with itemized lists. (As a reminder: I saw covid-19 coming back in Dec/Jan, stocked up on masks and food before the shortages, got out of the stock market before it crashed, got back in right after.)https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/tjic/escape-the-city-a-how-to-homesteading-guide/ …

      7) Or maybe you're interested in light homesteading - just an acre or two, not too far from the city. I talk about this scenario - small tractors, wood stoves, minimal livestock (one pig, maybe two, which you send off to the butcher).

      8) I've got several friends who homestead for their kids sake - they don't want their kids to grow up soy, but instead want to raise them out where they can run through forests, splash in creeks, and marvel at deer tracks in soil.

      9) Or maybe you're a mad-man. Maybe you want to dive in the deep end. If so, you NEED these books. Tractor shopping. Diesel maintenance. Welding. Logging. Firewood splitting. Pig butchery. It's all there. Literally encyclopedic. Learn from my experience.https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/tjic/escape-the-city-a-how-to-homesteading-guide/ …

      10) Final reason to get these books: Flip through a homesteading magazine (there are several). They are often aspirational - they're not just for an audience that aspires (but does not do), they're by AUTHORS who aspire but do not do.

      I, whatever my flaws, am not a bullshitter. I touch on a few topics in the books that I have no actually done, just to indicate "this topic here exists, you can go and learn more", but I do not provide information authoritatively unless I've DONE IT.https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/tjic/escape-the-city-a-how-to-homesteading-guide/ …

      Changing steel belted radial tires on your tractor? I tell you the right way - and the wrong way - to use tire spoons. Also, I include A VERY IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNING. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/tjic/escape-the-city-a-how-to-homesteading-guide/ …pic.twitter.com/bI7LzlDrYZ

      Heating with firewood? I've read some laughable theories in homesteading magazines. Having dropped a !~@#-ton of trees, and cut, split, and stacked north of 60 cords ( equivalent to 6 logging truck loads), I have fact-based thoughts. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/tjic/escape-the-city-a-how-to-homesteading-guide/ …pic.twitter.com/wiArDn0rGx

      Setting up a workshop to build furniture, fix cars, weld stuff, or all of the above? I give my actual opinions on what tools you need, rank ordered and grouped by task. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/tjic/escape-the-city-a-how-to-homesteading-guide/ …pic.twitter.com/BYvcr5VBev

          What was the deckscrew thing again? Farmhand used deckscrews instead of nails for a fence?
