What did you accomplish today?

A box n pan brake has fingers so you can adjust the breaking surface to complete the box , you can make a box with a normal brake but you got to modify it n add a piece of wood .

My first design, I failed when it came to the welding , I was to impatient, went too fast , n the pan warped, after seeing the fab difficulties, that design was tossed.
(Tig alum would be the way to go, but to much $$$)
2nd was to complicated to run wires out of sight .

I’ll try #3 today , doesn’t look as Kool, but I think it’s a easy build n functional .


When I build rooms , usually there’s not much $$$ left for flooring , so tile n fancy options are out . I got to flooring stores n ask what they have for vinyl sheet scrap, n pick something reflective.
I just silicone the seams n edges , works good. Easy to keep clean .
This is just a hobby for me so some might say the financing is complicated, I will just say some things go through committee, some are presented as "this is what I am doing", while others just get done off the books. The epoxy was off the books.

Yes write in candidates have won in significant elections.

Both Strom Thurmond, the late South Carolina Senator in 1954 and
the late Ohio Congressman Charlie Wilson ran a successful write-in campaign in 2006.

More details here: http://www.youcanwritein.com/history-write-in-candidates.php

Although it is not impossible to win as a write in, more than just my 1 ballot would be needed to be successful. :???:


lol

The name Strom Thrumond rings a bell. We don't have that option for our elections, if we did William Shatner would be our next prime minister.

Woke up to this mess this morning. So freaking depressing. @doublejj is the trim camp offer still valid? I gotta get out of this place.

Thought this might be an old thread but I see it’s up to date. I harvested a six point buck, he’s hanging in the garage, I will be butchering him myself. The price of meat is outrageous, not to mention the chemicals. Wifey and I eat great all winter. Now, butcher paper and Saran Wrap.
Is your garage heated? How long do you hang?

Noooo, you don’t want heat. A deer should hang a minimum of 24-30 hours, or ideally 4-7 days, with some hunters go for two weeks. The temp here is 25 at night, low 40’s during day. The short hang allows for the muscles to relax, certain bacteria to die off. Longer hangs for more tender meat. If it’s too warm, the deer will be quartered and put in a spare fridge, and butchered at leisure.

Yeah, I was just wondering since you are in Mass., it may freeze in the garage. It's too warm here in Calif for long hangs; when I used to hunt, we'd hang for maybe 2 hrs max. Most were processed by end of day early evening
