What did you buy this week?

[MesaAZguy]

Bought a 6.5" sub woofer for my compact cab tractor. Figured for the price, lets see how it would sound!

Radio in a tractor is like a radio on a motorcycle, to me. Both are out-of place. I'm sure if I had a cab, and was doing ag work for hours, it'd be different. On a bike? nope - never...

2001 Plymouth Prowler. Prowler Orange. Original 896 KM.
I know they aren't race cars and that's not what I wanted. It is a cool comfortable cruiser.
I'm not big on convertibles but I do like these.

I won't say I really like them, but I will say, they will get some attention.

Helicopter ride for my two employees wiring up my house. Branson MO 1/12. I flew them in from AZ since I do not trust anyone here to do the job. Been ripped off by a so called hack of a framer. Lady pilot was outstanding. Smoothest ride I have been on.

I bought a new Skilsaw 77 worm drive circular saw. It’s magnesium, so lighter than the older aluminum model 77. It’s an impressive looking saw with all of the angle options and the construction is all metal. I’m going to try it out this weekend. If it works as good as it is constructed, I doubt if I’ll ever need to replace it.

7-1/4 IN. Lightweight Worm Drive Skilsaw

The latest and lightest Worm Drive continues the long tradition of SKIL quality, rugged durability and consistently exceptional cutting performance.

When I'm operating mechanical equipment on the farm, I want all my senses focused on the task.

What is a hybrid wood stove?

What is a hybrid wood stove?

We called them coal/wood stoves when I was a kid.

 

[newkiotiguy]

What is a hybrid wood stove?

It has both catalytic combustor and a secondary combustion system. My old smaller stove just had the secondary. It's one of the epa stoves that qualify for a tax rebate

I bought a Hanes T shirt and 6 pr of boxers. At my age I need to change my shorts a lot more often than my shirt.

The gear drive on the 77s will cut lumber that will stall other saws. The start up torque is so much more that you have to be careful about starting your cut so it starts where you intend instead of twisting off to the side.

 

[grsthegreat]

On the skil77, the magnesium (contractor) models have metal internal gearing. The cheaper homeowner models have plastic gears.

I bought a HF 2" gas power water (aka trash) pump. I'm putting a fire fighting trailer together using a few IBC totes, pump, and 2" hose reel.

 

[2manyrocks]

I bought one of those pumps a few months ago. I think they will sell more of them now.
