...in the war on the stanky basement under the old farmhouse I bought last summer. Twenty one room house, 1860's era, fireplaces in every room...unfortunately burned to the ground in the 1930's. So they took one corner of the foundation and built my little house on top of it in the 1930's. Then they added an addition and garage...looks like 1950's or 60's on the addition. Cute place now but the basement...whew! Mopped it out with bleach water, including the walls and improved on it a LOT. Decently dry with new perimeter tile system and two sumps. Got the softner running yesterday and found that the really old drain it drains into must be collapsed...water coming up everywhere. So...getting to the point...I finally pulled the access off the crawl space under the addition. Been some squirrels under there eating black walnuts at some point. Most of the insulation bats they pushed up into the floor joists have fallen down. Wondering if anyone here has had to install overhead insulation and what is the best way to keep it up between the joists? I cannot emphasize enough...I only want to do this ONCE. Really creepy in there. What I would really like to hear from someone is "I did (blank) four years ago and it's still working". Anyone had something they used that held up over time?

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
