In this brief build‑log, the speaker walks through constructing the bottom of a second‑generation mineral sled. They note that the first sled was too heavy for typical small farms—where most owners have only two cows and a few sheep—and therefore needed a lighter design that can be moved by hand. A cutting mistake is acknowledged, and the speaker sets a short‑term goal to add a mat and skids the following day.
Got our mineral frame. Now let's build the bottom. First mineral sled I built was too heavy. Most of you guys only have 2 cows, handful of sheep, and you need to be able to move stuff by hand. Oh my gosh, accidentally tripped y'all's leg. Cut this the wrong size the first time. Calling it a morning. Let's see what we got. Oh, we lack, the mat, and the skids. Let's make that a goal for tomorrow.
If I had to start my Homestead all over again, it could only pick one animal…
