    Borescopes... thoughts?

    I much prefer the Depstech so my smartphone can be still and just move the probe around. I would hate to go back to the old all in one units.

    Any idea what's causing these circles in my gravel driveway?

    You live near a creek? I had those several years ago and couldn't figure it out until I caught a turtle doing it.

    Turkeys in the yard . . . a better way?

    Pump BB gun worked for me. I popped a couple in the butt a few times. Then for a few weeks went out and just gave the gun a couple pumps and they run like crazy when they hear it. Don't come in the yard no more.

    Two things I will never understand in life...

They replaced my 5 year old roof including underlayment and labor at no cost. 47 square. I had 6 bad shingles on one spot on my garage. Obviously from a defective bundle, rest of roof was...

    In Ohio you can transfer 2 vehicles outside of probate between husband/wife. Anything over that lawyer had me get TOD titles.

    Zd1211 blades

    I have been running G6 on a 72"SD for 2 years. I like them but in the fall when it is dry the front blow out can be annoying. I have machined a number of sets of the holders for these blades for other owners.

    Steel Buildings

    I have 3 Morton buildings with the oldest being 38 years old. Just had the roof repainted 2 years ago, rest still looks fine. My first building, 54 X 90, only had enough scrap after building to fill a wheelbarrow. Built 2nd in 2002 and before I built the 3rd in 2005 I went around and checked out...

Then a jig is used with a lazer and the treated posts were all sawed to the same heights, stair-stepped. The walls were bulit in sections and then set on the...

    I took a piece of 3/4" copper tubing and flattened one end and soldered a fitting on the other with a ball valve and hooked to an airline. So far works everytime. Sort of a scaled down version of one of these:

    Building a stick frame house in the woods in 90 days

    My cabinet is standard but is mounted away from the wall so as not to be hard to reach. The wall behind the fridge is sunk in 7 inches or so just in the fridge area, not the whole height.

    Will the Ceiling Collapse?

    Why don't you just put 3' tin up? Just screw it right to the trusses, no 2X4's, taping, painting, etc. I had a 54 X 90 on 9' centers done this way. Have two other buildings on 7'6" centers done this way also.

    Diesel garden tractor pulling

    Adapt one of these to front of your turbo inlet. Spring load it. Run a choke cable with a ring pull on it from the rear up to it and run it thru the hole. If you ever put an electric pump on you will have to add a power disconnect to the same ring. You will eventually need an electric pump...
