    My husband's grandpa used glass peanut butter jars to store his bolts, nails, scews, & electrical little bits. He would screw the lids onto the bottom of a 2x4. Then he'd fill the jar & tighten to jar onto the lid that was in place. He hung the 2x4 to the shop wall with brackets. Basically creating a shelf of jars that hung below the shelf instead of resting above the shelf. It works great! You can even use different sizes of jars & it still works.
    My only additional suggestion is to double check that the lid has 1 continuous thread (like a Mason jar) rather than 4 or 5 short threads like disposable plastic ware.

    Okay! I am so booking a spot here in the future. Do you do tent camping? 🤣🤣🤣 2:00
    Have you thought about a whole park back up generator that ties into the mains power for the future? 45kw whisper watt by MQ power? Not sure what other efficient things you can do to keep things going under adverse conditions. Wind generator with solar in tandem with a battery system for constant power off grid? Clean showers for tent campers has always been a big thing for me as well as water free toilets for the dudes. Since you guys love to keep things family oriented I don't see you offering a wifi service for guests, but if you did I work in IT and could offer some tips.

    • @TheJurgys
      @TheJurgys  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      We DO have tent camping! Just Google “The Park at Swan Valley” and reserve through the website or call us 🤩

      @@TheJurgys starlink is great because you can do multiple cellular vendors. but if eventually you guys upgrade, finding a local wireless company that can do a point to point microwave antenna to get you increased bandwidth is always ideal, even in the middle of a location that might not have high speed data.
      Super excited to see your progress and thank you for the information to book a campsite. I'm all the way out in California but a road trip sounds amazing and I've always wanted to photograph the Tetons.
