Then a full parts list and where to get them.

The one who lost a freezer full of food last January and said never again. The one who just bought a few acres and does not know what to do first. The one whose wife rolls her eyes at the shelf in the garage. The one who wants the grandkids to know how, and would rather show them than tell them. The one who has been meaning to get around to it since the last time the lights went out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt was written for all of them, on a quarter acre or ten. You do not need to be an expert.
