Cletus Clement, St. Anne, Ill.: Cletus Clement and sons save heating costs and reduce drafts in their farm shop by using roll-up curtains made out of low-cost blue tarps. It takes three curtains to stretch across the shop. All three are controlled by way of ropes that run off to one side of the shop. Lengths of pipe hold the curtains down. Rope goes up the back, then under the curtain rod at bottom, then up to pulleys on the other side. When the rope is pulled on each curtain, they roll up neatly to the raftors.
