    Corona Virus #8

    Saw that story on the news here last night. It seems now that some common sense will prevail as the reporter said that the fine could be withdrawn. The self isolation rules are strict and there has been some confusion because the individual Australian states set their own "variations" based on...

    Corona Virus #7

    I saw the images of long lines outside gunshops in the US, presumably looking for something for self defence when/if the SHTF(?) Well, I thought you might find this announcement from Australia interesting. My state government of Victoria has announced that there has been an increase in gun...

    TODAYS SEAT TIME

    Yesterdays seat time was removing the last section of an old farm fence. I don't know exactly how old the posts are, but I have been on this land for 40 years and this is an old section that always needing replacing. I know that my wife's grandfather would have put them in - and he died in 1955...

    Firearm laws in Australia - what can happen

    I have been a keen sport and target shooter for more than 40 years and have been reading with interest (and amazement) the threads regarding open or concealed carrying of firearms in the US. The common justification to carry a gun either way is for personal protection from 2 or 4 legged feral...

    TODAY'S GUN TIME

    I read with interest the stories and photos of deer wandering around on your rifle ranges, so I thought I would post a few pics of the Aussie version! These are some shots I have taken of roos on the HQ rifle range for the Victorian Rifle Association at Bendigo, Victoria. We shoot what I think...

    Tractors and wood! Show your pics

    Seeing as how I enjoy looking at all your pictures, I thought it was time I posted a couple of mine. I can't show any of tractors and wood at the moment as it is now mid winter here and a large part of my land is too wet to risk driving a tractor on. Here are some shots of a large ironbark...

    TODAYS SEAT TIME

    Well, it was 20 minutes seat time ....... and then 20 minutes swearing time ..... and then 2 hours digging and dragging time.:ashamed: It seemed like a good idea to cut across the wettest corner of the back paddock to get to the gate, rather than go around the long way and waste 15 minutes...

    CK35HST - first service just done - some things learned

    The first service has just been done by my local dealer's field service guy. I thought I would pass on a couple of things that stood out - good and bad. The service was done at 68 hours. I was in their yard (borrowing a pipe layer at no charge) at around 48 hours and asked when did I need to...

    New machine earning it's keep

    Here some close up shots of the concrete posts available locally. They are slightly different to the ones on the website you found (no larger holes for barb). They are 6 feet long - 2 feet in the ground, 4 feet out - with holes matching the steel post layout. They are 4 1/2 inches wide on the...

    New machine earning it's keep

    I promised I would post some photos of the new machine - sorry I don't have any action shots. Here are a couple showing the new fence after clearing the burnt timber off the fence line. The local Council (the government body that controls the roadsides) is pretty touchy about any tree being...
