Well been catching up around here since I have been on the road. There is simply nothing more satisfying than looking down your driveway at nice tidy bales. Somehow it gives you that same warm fuzzy contented sigh feeling, like when you open the pantry in the house right after canning season.
O heck yes! That is way past cool. Ackley forgot more than most scribes knew. You get it done, send me one cartridge and I will put it in a shadow box in the gun shop with your name on a tab as the inventor! Just outstanding work.
Yep, he has several videos out. Shame youth is wasted on the young. His hands still work, he can see, and his mind is on over drive! You know, all that stuff we can’t do! He is just super talented.
I got no idea, I got annoyed so I tossed a tarp over them and walked away. I will deal with it another day. I know how it would turn out if I had messed with them today.
So I order qty12 2x4s and go pick them up. They toss em in the truck and I head home. I get home and 10 of the 12 are edge cuts? WTF? The lumber today is dismal at best.
Thanks so much for the post, I am just now back reading and trying to catch up after a couple weeks on the work tread mill! Love watching the build. Looks like a heavy barrel? What is the intended use for this one?
Gracie our Mal pup is a woodchuck hunting machine. We had so much rain their burrows flooded and so many were out and about looking for new homes. I like your method better, Gracie got bit pretty good from the last one.
Just got back home from a whirlwind training tour. Starting another one tomorrow. You boys and one girl have put up over forty pages since I was on here. That is a whole bunch of talk about nuthin. I finally got some tin hung on the range shelter. My boy showed mercy and came out to lend a hand...
With school out all of the school districts security teams are getting their annual training and shooting qualifications targets completed. I have been on the road for almost two straight weeks. I will back read at some point. Students arrive tomorrow for yet another solid week of training. I...
Got a long week of training School Safety Teams this week down in Southern Arkansas. Be on the road for 4 days. Staying with a buddy that does not care for sports at all. My little crystal ball says He is about to watch some hockey!
My Hulu quit streaming, arghh all these tornados have made a mess of communication services around here. They are still cutting trees and setting poles.
Still a long way to go but the shooters shelter is actually starting to look like something. Weekend is upon me so back to the grindstone. I have students all weekend.
I have always done the same, with exception that I bend a welding rod as a pattern then hit the rack and find the closest one and trim to fit. Works every time. The old counter guys never had an issue with letting you do it that way. I can only imagine trying to explain that today to a pup...
Every time I throw mine out of the house she is like a boomerang and comes back in! Hah!
Disclaimer; this is a macho bravado post, simply posturing for my peer group. Cheryl (Zmans wife) if you are reading this you know darn sure it ain’t true! Show me a man that can throw a crazy redhead out...
Pete just drives across town! Have fun you guys. It kills me to not go. But we are also a scratch for Carlisle. Funeral is on the seventh so Jodi is still not back home. I be eating and drinking like a pirate. Gracie says good morning and happy Birthday FOG!
You see where the enclosed trailer goes with? All of a sudden the car is only 20k. 24ft enclosed will ruin a 10k bill all day. The motor alone is likely worth 15. All on all pretty reasonably priced in my humble opinion.
