Well I thought I'd give an update... I trimmed the wooden disk down to a smaller radius, thinking that would be good enough... it wasn't. I just ordered another set of weights ($25) as I don't have the time (or is it energy?) to deal with that right now. Hopefully later on I can come up with the ideal design on some wooden weights...
One thing I did lean, however, is that the wood can harbor mold and yeast cultures... so on second thought, maybe it's not my best idea as of yet...
Life is too complicated. Text messaging, e-mails, rushing to and fro... this world need to slow down and put some balance back into things! In between soccer games, diapers and paying taxes, I'm working to do things right, to savor the enjoyment of living a better life, even if it's hard! Join me on my feeble attempt to turn a house on 3 acres into a system that produces a surplus... and just maybe, one day, I will eliminate the need for a lawn mower!
