Building a $5 Maple Syrup Evaporator worth THOUSANDS! (for the off grid cabin)

I turn an discarded old oil drum reservoir normally used for home heating into a wood boiler, evaporator which I will use turn sap into delicious maple syrup.

With the help of my chainsaw, I'll cut down all the overgrown and shaded out dead pines which I will cut into log to build a sugar shack. The pines in this replanted forest are fat too overgrown and have been grossly mismanaged. The trees should have be cut and thinned nearly a decade ago. Removing the dead trees is a good start to rehabilitating the forest. Later, we will thin even more and get the forest ready for replanting and rejuvenating. In this first part, we will mostly be cutting trees and then getting the site chosen. It's a lot of tree felling, and hauling to get our raw materials.
