Popular Post Cal Posted September 17, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 17, 2021 I've gotten a late start today... Have a bunch of errands to run this morning, may go ahead and get a flu shot if I can inject that into my schedule as I drive by the phamacy. I want to start on a couple of shadow boxes this weekend. Yard work, a ball game or two. No "excitement" planned. forty_caliber, FlGatorwood, Larry Buskirk and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post John Morris Posted September 17, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 17, 2021 It's all about mom this weekend! Elder mom visits, etc, getting ready to head out the door and have breakfast with LOML and we are both heading to mom's facility. We are working on getting her out of there and back in her own home, the logistics of that is overwhelming, but do-able. Hoping to get in the shop a little tomorrow, if only for an hour, if I can pull the car out of the garage, and stand in the middle of it, and just smell the wood and sort some tools out, I'll be a happy camper!

Popular Post Gene Howe Posted September 17, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 17, 2021 Irrigation job is done....with the exception of 150' of 1/4" line with emitters every 5'. That'll be done this winter. Now, the job of backfilling all the trenches and re spreading the drive way rocks. That's a job for this PM and tomorrow morning when it's cooler. Might take two evenings and two mornings. DuckSoup, Larry Buskirk, Cal and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post forty_caliber Posted September 17, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 17, 2021 Public Service Announcement: A couple of months ago I purchased a Ryobi 40v 18" chainsaw. Convenience was a big factor. I really didn't want to keep 2 cycle oil and a gas can around since, other than our cars, nothing else around the house runs on gasoline. Steer clear of this item. Don't waste your time, money, or energy. Leaks bar and chain oil just about as fast as you can pour it in. Battery life is horrible. Extra batteries are ~$100. The anti-kickback throttle control lasted about 2 logs. After that it runs under load 5-10 seconds before having completely release the triggers and start over. Customer service is remarkably lousy... as in ZERO help. Glad I made this purchase with my Home Depot card. They took it back no questions asked. Bought an Echo 18" gas powered, oil and pre-mixed canned fuel. Came out $7 ahead. I didn't know pre-mixed fuel was even a thing. Learn some thing new everyday. .40 Gene Howe, DuckSoup, Gunny and 6 others 4 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post kmealy Posted September 17, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 17, 2021 Seussical set construction. 3 platforms to put on legs - 2 at 6' diameter, one at 8x12 ellipse. Tapered posts for guard rails, pocket hole screwing for rolling cages. And probably some other stuff, depending on number and skills of those who show up steven newman, Cal, Gene Howe and 5 others 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
