Hi Jeff. Thanks for your informative and interesting videos. This video is an excellent example. I didn't know about acorn granaries. All the best, my friend.

So this keeps the acorns from molding?

And I'd watch every minute of it. Of course you could then make six 30 minute videos or twelve 15 minute videos.

How long did the granary take to make.

Why not show us HOW to make it? It was cool seeing it made but it doesn't really do much but entertain. Some instructions would have been nice.
