I’m looking for websites that are as good or better than the one’s I’m going to list below. (I'll just mention there is nothing more excellent than FarmHack Tools, or Marcin Jakubowski's site.)
The list's sites have content concerned with the re-use or adaptation of components, old machinery, and salvaged materials to make things of use on a homestead or small farm. In other words, illustrations, description, or complete how-to articles (or videos) showing how ingenuity, design and skills can be combined to fabricate these useful things.
To illustrate the nature of my interest, you could log onto this thread (it’s had a number of contributions from other people, and by now has gotten more than 38,000 views - the further you scroll down the more actual pics or embedded vids there are): http://www.sufficientself.com/threads/upcycled-repurposed-projects-many.11661/
Okay, below is the list of sites I’ve found (ones that range from pretty good to excellent):
http://farmshow.com/
http://www.instructables.com/
http://makezine.com/
http://inhabitat.com/tag/shipping-containers/
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/622508883/global-village-construction-set?ref=nav_search

https://www.engineeringforchange.org/
http://farmhack.org/tools

https://www.pinterest.com/Mortified1/workshops-tools-and-cool-ideas/
Please post to help me, and others on FarmHack, find sites that you feel are good.
