The bodywash I was using had a lot of chemicals in it that I no longer wanted to rub on my body, so I switched back to bars of soap. The soap I found online was great, but super expensive (Like $5-6 per bar). Naturally my next step is always to ask, “How do I…

Today I’m gonna talk about some updates for the tiny house homestead. I’m Craig and if you’re new to my channel, I’m in the process of moving my self built tiny house out to some property I own in rural Washington. My channel documents that process and some of the tinker projects I do along…
