Kroil is a true miracle worker for freeing up heat stressed and rusty bolts . Also works to keep rust off tools in the garage. I run a spirits of that in all my air tools also.
Thats cool you have the skills to do that . As an industrial mechanic I can do basic machining . I always wished I could take that up as a trade but the opportunity never presented itself. Looks like a fun project. Interested in seeing the results.
I like it ... I have been looking for something like that to hold my scoped revolvers. Most wont hold a longer barrel or the weight of a big bore revolver and a scope.
Steelhead fishing fly tying and reloading. Will get after the garden in May. To be honest my job is kicking my butt. Up at 4 am, at work by 5:30. Getting out most days 4 to 5 pm. Never seems like I get enough sleep. Hopefully things will change.
I have been there a few times mostly to look at the fly fishing which I had hoped to be more involved. Same people stirring. Most action over there is about weed... go figure.
I almost ordered a new ice hut this year. Put it off because the prices jumped so darn high ... should be a bunch on sale .... I should probably be looking now.
Yup great weather minus the 25mph winds . Problem is my apple trees are pushing buds and will probably get frosted again this year. With no real snow pack and warm weather I see another hot dry summer . We could really use a decent spring with some rain. We are still way off the water table norms . Have been thinking about putting in a big patch of sweet corn but I don't want to have to water it all summer long .
