    Illegal deer hunting?

    I get a pretty good kick outta watching (and hearing) my beagle hound run squirrels and chipmunks in my yard. She likes it too, it's like she was bred for it. She does exhibit some unsportsmanlike behavior, she just carries them around and chews on them till she gets bored, never eats them...

    PJ trailer

    Sold my 16ft utility trailer while it was still in good shape. Seems like I had it overloaded every time used it. Local dealer ordered me a PJ 20ft CE. It has 5200lb axles, primer and powder coat, pinstripe delete, winch plate, and rear slide in ramps. So far I am happy with it.

    Practical Joke

    This fella snuck up on me when I stepped outside to mix some thinset so I bashed his head in. Then I couldn't help myself, I went and started laying tiles. After 10 minutes I asked my wife to go get my big yellow level, I left it outside (next to the dead copperhead). My 5 year old had a neon...

    Rounded off drain plug

    I bought this set, it actually goes on an air chisel. I would call any wrench that fits properly the right tool. Adjustable, combination or specialty. Using an air chisel to grab a corner will work. I would not call that the correct tool since it is somewhat destructive.

    Got the hot water side ready today. Pretty much duplicated what was already there, just 3 feet shorter. I am thinking actually putting concrete over this will be the last thing I do. I will leave it uncovered to monitor my handiwork until I feel confident to seal it up forever.

    Traction  diy tire antifreeze

    I saw on the internet where a lady makes her own windshield washer fluid with 1 gallon water, 8oz isopropyl alcohol, and 1oz castille soap. Yall think I could load my tires with a 1 gallon water/8 oz isopropyl solution? That would cost about $0.88 per gallon. I dont need soap or blue color...

    log splitter/cyclone rake hitch 3pt

    Just finished a hitch to connect my 2" ball log splitter and cyclone rake to my 1860. Guess ill have to make a top pin, I didnt know they are a standard length, I made my top link too wide. Used tractor supply paint.
