Magnus cut on contact two blade for 25 years or so . First a swedged glue on , then Stingers , limited use of the serrated ones, went back to PE. Don’t recall to,many difficult or long blood trails .

That is awesome! That whole ,” if I won the lottery “ thing , I’d have a fleet of vehicles like that . From rat rods to straight out death traps . When I was young , buddy was rear ended on 104 at Basket rd. He bought his car off his insurance company ,and cut off the damaged rear end from bumper to rear windscreen . He then rebuilt it all with wood ,bumper and all, trunk lid was a sheet of plywood , complete with hasp and padlock . painted the whole car with house paint and a roller . Since the car was only a few years old ,he was able to drive it like that for years .

Stucco siding !

It’s a 1984 Johnson . Three cylinder 70 hp , haven’t looked around yet . I’m not putting much effort or $ into this . I’m 61 and been going out in boats since birth , this, one Since the ‘70s . i’ll have me mechanic buddy take a looks see .

I’m pretty sure I saw 3 or 4 people, just fall over dead as the Mrs and I walked past them on the way to,our table . Pretty much no one here has the Chinese flu , and not being 78 and obese ,I have little to fear if they did , hell I had Hep C ,never knew and my immune system kicked its ass , something like an 8% chance . I’m a pinnacle of health . I should write a book , ok a pamphlet or brochure , maybe a leaflet . Would you listen to my podcast ? What the heck’s a tick tok ?

Great day ! Went here , 100’s of bikers, Veterans, cops , construction workers ( a few locals were sponsors ) . Bands ,beer , food , a bunch of older Milfs trying to, get a few more miles out of their bolt ons . No masks for the most part , nobody asking you to put them on , but then you’d really have to, commit if you did ....

I’m in for sure ,and I’ll bring sausage from Costanzas, on me ! or maybe last years old deer meat from the bottom of the freezer ,it’s a toss up .

Left turn Clyde !

Look up Texas City disaster ,where close to 600 died from an ammonium nitrate explosion, in a ships hold . Heat and pressure will cause an explosion, sure dumping it in the ground to blow a stump will require fuel, oil . Hot fire in a confined space will also do it . Then just for giggles they stored dozens of bags of fireworks along with it ..... Also it’s a massive target for evil doers .

Thanks guys .

I love this place .

I’d like to, make it ! My buddy is in the process of sighting in a borrowed rifle for a fall trip, out West , but my range is maybe 90 yards he may be interested too, and could use some tips from experienced rifle , men , which I’m not . He’s a solid guy ,and loves to tell embarrassing stories about me .... Ya if I’m free and I am most weekends ,I’m there . 7mm08, SW. 357 mod 586 , Dan Wesson .22 from the ‘80s ,oh maybe my Henry .22 Golden Boy FF tribute addition.

Record / video everything . Way back before IPhones I kept a small cassette recorder in my desk at work for anytime I might get called into a chiefs office and the like .

What local did you belong too ? That sounds like a sh!t show . I can only speak to my Local , at every meeting the treasurer reads his treasures report , including our opening and closing statements ,explaining every expenditure . Then closes with , “ the books are always open ,to anyone at anytime .” There is zero spent on “ fun money. “ it’s also audited every year .Our Pres. draws his city salary as per our contract , the rest of the executive board ,works full time for the city and gets a stipend from the union of somewhere around $4-5 grand a year , for an ungodly number of hours they put in . They come up for election every few years , no term limits needed. But few want the positions , to much work to,little reward . It’s illegal for us to use dues money for political purposes, which is why the Local formed a PAC several, years ago, and asked if each member would consider giving just two bucks to it each pay period ( $52 a year ) , opt out at anytime . The local representatives would not even return our phone call . That’s some power we yield right there . I can’t speak to the International . Oh and as for the Janus decision, we’re still 100% union strong ,nobody opted out every new guy signed up . In other good news for, our family , daughters fiancé just got in a Local tradesman Union .

Ok going on the air leak as suggested in round #1, I replaced the old metal tank, fuel line and fittings ,with One of those those new approved tanks, new fuel line and fittings . Went to start it all I heard was the starter going up to try and engage the flywheel . Pulled the cover , gas everywhere ,dripping from the carb housing , and all three plugs ! Now I squeezed the gas bulb a lot, as that’s what was required on the old system ,and apparently I flooded it bad . Pulled the plugs, turned it over and a boat load of gas sprayed out, kept doing that till it was just misting , dried everything ,put it back together and it stared right up, ( no pumping of bulb ). Wife and i took it out on a test run , started and ran fine , but it seemed to use a lot more gas . Topped off tank , for daughter who used it yesterday, she came back with half a tank, which for the little distance ( anchored at the sand hill mostly ) and not running wot is not right . Now to my question , would a stuck needle cause a drop in gph like that ? Would it still otherwise operate as normal ? Oh and I’ve never had to, pump bulb one time to start it even when cold anymore . Thanks .

Done

Agree about WLP . Generally if you have a few crooks in an organization , stealing or misappropriation of funds you go after them ,not disband the organization . As much as I might feel others like GOA, are more on target ,they don’t have the numbers which mean votes ,which is why the NRA has held sway in many areas , when you have 50k of mostly single issue voters in one congressional district, you often get what you want . Now if they get disbanded and every member joined another group that would be good, but I’ll never happen , NRA will never be replaced by an equal group much less a stronger one .

In WWII , my uncle was KIA, when the munitions ship he was on blew up , they were outside of port, but the explosion killed people on land as well .

I worked the same shift as Steve for his whole career, he and I rescued a teenage boy and his mom , who were trapped on the second floor of their burning home many years ago, he also cut up a few of my deer . I wasn’t there today, due to other obligations. https://www.rochesterfirst.com/community/dozens-of-rfd-show-up-to-help-gravely-ill-firefighter-fix-his-home/ if you Facebook 20 pics https://www.facebook.com/rochesterfiredept/?__tn__=kC-R&eid=ARBExgVNB5C7YZljpCNKxeBE8u3V7ZawEuw95qLS3G2p90QXgCpqTE24yO6zy7WLpXPr9huxHfqY5hza&hc_ref=ART-CZ1_fsVjwGbBtF_FVCgbqlJLNdqs_-l_TIWGewk4ovSYj313NYwUYchOEXTTQ0U&fref=nf&__xts__[0]=68.ARAKtGHRPoGfLtlZVYNa78eIWEYhWX4yUAt-YW6OTm9gkp_SG40RlG1QFXpHkMrb7nnxMo647tc7AKgDHa8Rgt40HV5Vtfnc8Nwth-pBC-ZXiYObd46nyVRLzutxx9XeHVYBErRhpn7jzgUHArLSuE7i4KLqdgUGCXVyf8MHA9WJjUhpQbrURTa-FFQA1gcAv363n3cH0z5T88ZHbX8OSv_WLnAxJK4CxhMCPLLpfnjl9VM0iQwgVlFJtjyo3ZFDjI9bpoRxNqp9VPIrL2B6JLS02zdkR9t8VuxoKmQqbr3DsPqPplotHJ_urm214kvWV_Q34dps1Hii_fFfdU8Sh8NIHA

Actually he’s a lefty , lefty ....

Interesting storing that so close to the city proper . For safety reasons many cites have laws regulating the hours fuel trucks can drive on expressways that pass through the city ,to night time only .

Don’t drink out of any streams there .

I May only have a few pieces left ,depends on how we cut and pattern it ,nephew has sold all the remaining,I have my few pieces for my use set aside . Then the farm has a bunch of old barns in disrepair that they don’t use ,that Ive pulled boards off of as well ,so I’ll have something for you by bow opener .

As I said prior , I have some 200 year old barn wood . After I finish the daughter's basement room ,I may have some left for that base . Im currently painting the trim , and fiancée is doing the flooring ,then the barn wood wall, so pretty soon . I have several spools of very old wire fencing ,laying on my land too , not barbed though . Plenty of old fence posts, just to lazy to rip them out of the ground ....
