I remember my Dad talking abt Grandma and Grandpa making cane sorghum. They used a horse or might have used one of Great-Grandad's oxen. I never got to see the method, or Great-Grandad for that matter. I do remember the sorghum having a stronger taste and was a lot thicker than maple syrup. So many changes in just a couplafew generations. That is why it's good when younger folks like to learn and get back to basics.

There must be some good YouTube videos. I'm sure not all are good but there must be SOME that are.

How is he going to make benches and such without a sawmill??

I'm more of the rustic chainsaw cut bench type myself. And before you ask, he already built a milking stand so he doesn't need a sawmill to build me a new one;) and we have a picnic table.

Come on NH, HE NEEDS the sawmill. Besides, you might be able to make some money down there cutting wood for people. If you lived near me I'd be asking you to bring it over and quarter saw a sugar maple I was forced to take down.
