Not a bad crop this year, pulled into property had 2 doe and 3 fawns feeding.

This buck is the best I have seen so far . The doe and her fawns travel the area pretty regularly . One of the fawn pics was taken on a $20 Bresser camer and has the wrong date & time . Can't change it .

Got the idea to build some ultra light weight bow hangers . For awhile ive been wanting to get a 3d printer ,from there i wanted to use it to mold custom carbon fiber . Part of the reason for this project was to start to learn about the bonding procedures for carbon fiber . For the first one i purchased the tube ends so i could see how much clearance they use from the aluminum to the tubing for epoxy . By doing so i learned the ends are also slotted to allow for thermal expansion and not fatigue the epoxy . A few pictures of the build and the total weight is at 5.3 ounces without the tree screw . I have tubing with half the wall thickness for the next batch , i will be making all the tube ends for that build ,i'm guessing the total weight on those will be 3.5 ounces finished.

Just completed the food plots. About 4 acres total. 2 acres Hancock Seed Reid's field corn which was about a month behind the area farmers plus some Hancock Seed Ripper Peas, Daikon Radishes and Purple Top Turnips, Evolved Harvest oats mix with brassicas and Evolved Harvest 7 card stud.

Bucks bucks bucks. All my cell cams are does does does. Wish i could easily post video. Dont feel like going through youtube.

I dont have access to a lathe that I can cut a tapered thread on so I called in a favor from a fellow tool maker that I've worked with most of my career.

Bow tie pasta , garlic , olive oil , sun dried tomatoes, spinach , Asiago cheese and Parmesan cheese. Nice and light Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I never weigh fish, I use the chest girth method, my bass are routinely 5-7lbs. Haha sorry Wolc, I had to.... In all seriousness, we catch hundreds of Lake Ontario bass each spring at arguably the heaviest weights they will be (spring) and only a handful go over 5 lbs. LOTS of 4-4.5's. The scale doesn't lie.

7/25: got a lot done this morning. Dragged a tire to cut down high brush on walking trails. Replaced a ground blind, threw some throw and grow for summer pics, and checked cams. No spikes, no 3’s and no 8’s. So far we got the following on cam: Two 4’s Two 6’s One 7pt Some does and only 1 fawn I think. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Grind day on the lake but got em. Boat limit with @FISHDO and son.

My bride took my sons and a friend out on the Viking yesterday while I worked. They killed it. No photos of fish but a full bucket of sea bass and porgies. Vacuum sealed and in the freezer. Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk

I’m jealous of you machinists. Not only are you generally creative enough to come up with ideas like this but you have the ability and knowledge to pull it off! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

12 pounds of neck/shank meat has been ground and seasoned for more venison cheddar jalapeño snack sticks..aka kick biz, jerky, Aboa ass in golf sticks! Hitting the smoker soon!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The Mrs is the best. She drove to Scranton PA this afternoon for my daughters softball tournament only to get there and found out it was canceled bummer but she’s the best and stopped and got Krispy Kreme doughnuts And drove back I love their blueberry frosted. She is the better half ha

It did happen . They actually fired 110 shots at him and hit him 68 times https://www.foxnews.com/story/florida-police-shot-suspected-cop-killer-68-times

Pulled out one of the bows yesterday evening. Here's my first that was either at 40 or 46 yards. Don't remember. Second pic is group at edge of yard from target. 46 yards. Definitely didn't mean for outer 12 ring. Dumb shit luck. Can't see rings that far out. I was just aiming for bottom 1/3 kill shot. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

Got my MB550’s today. There’s no comparison to the duke’s I got last year. These 550’s are solid tanks. I’m going to try a few set this year,but I’m really building up an arsenal for when I retire. I’ve always wanted to trap ever since I was a kid well I’m going for it in my old age. Should be a fun adventure. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I thought this was some great traditional bow shooting, so I'm sharing the video. This guy can shoot that's for sure.

Some def beautiful smallies for you this year. I've caught a few, prob 10 -12 or less in my life, but a 5lb small mouth bass isn't all that common in NY. Although a lot of people think it looks 5 lbs the scale is always (exception PA chart) the tell. I can only think of two lakes I've ever got 5lb smallies out of. One small amazing lake up in the Watertown area (which is in my avatar and also not a 5lber) and Delta lake. But nothing fights like a small mouth bass.

Celebratory beer. The wife has me going through bins. Early fall purge. I thought she was gone forever. Had this release for 20 years. I lost her 5 years ago. Cheers

Usually a 5lb smallie is 21+".

Good shoot this morning. Took another first timer. He had a ball. 240 recovered. Some landed in the corn that we couldn’t get to. Great video coverage too.

I have regular pint glasses that commemorate things like QDMA branch I'm a part of and offroad dirtbike race weve held at the farm with our name. a couple mugs from an international collegiate snowmobile design competition our team won. Those are good enough for me. Got a kickass NWTF pint cup to from TF. Those are all good enough for me. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

Gotta love the fellow machinist brain at work.nice work!

Does a beer mug count as proper glassware? What if you got it at the brewery??

I don't know if this crosses over into the political thread or not, but here's our exalted King proving himself to be a bigger jerk day by freaking day! Chicken wings not food?

Unfortunately no not yet, it's all ready to go, just haven't had the opportunity yet and when I do it's 90° so I've been waiting. It's very possible I will in the next few days, I need to at least make sure it functions as it should. Sent from my moto g(6) using Tapatalk

Nice catch Better than nothing. I think my chipmunk problem is over or close to it. Once I started making them try to swim my catch rate slowed down to nothing in the last two weeks. The final count up to this point is 43.

Nice work

Whoops, forgot about that thread.

Yep, as others said not building pressure, I bet if you put a hose clamp on the tank end that came off a few times it would fix it temporarily .

Lots of misses Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Another awesome night out back. Big show and the 12 point kicker were back with a few nice 8s. Cant wait for fall!

Yeah...If his ears were smaller he'd look just like ME when I was younger...

I didn't look through all the reply's but check out simmons broadheads. They fly excellent and you can get them in all kinds of weights. I currently shoot the tiger sharks at 175 grns with a 100 grn brass insert. These broadheads are devastating on game huge holes and good blood trails.

Their practically caribou at this point.
