    Finally found some thing I could post. Last week's visit to Moab.

    5th wheel killing batteries

    Check the power at the bumper socket on the truck. One of the top two termainals is the battery supply (the other at the top is the running lights, with park lights on both should be hot). On some factory wired rigs, the key has to be in the run position to power up the battery lead. Most...

    Who hunts?

    Grew up target shooting and pistol matches. Did take to Prarie dogs and Pheasant here in Colorado. A good day in a Prairie field that hasn't been hunted in a while, you'll have hundreds of targets! I start with .22 out to about 75 yards. Then .223 for the intermediate ranges and 220 Swift...

    Boiling heads........

    Had a country friend that wanted to clean the skull from a burro that had just passed (was a family pet for 30 years). He buried near an ant hill (dont' know how long) came out really clean! Said he buried it to keep the scavengers from pulling it apart and carting it off.

    5th wheel killing batteries

    Depending on supplier, you might take them back and have them load checked. Like it was said earlier, one cell can cause problems with a brace of batteries. A good store should check 'em for free and replace one if bad.

    5th wheel killing batteries

    I'll ask, are you sure the batteries are getting fully charged? Wonder if the charge circuit is shutting down early.

    That is holding up better that what I thought. I thought that epoxy (in the plastic family?) would melt and dent. I may just have to look back into epoxies again. Wonder if there are many grades/qualities? Like the buckets. Did you use a card board template to come up with a one piece design?

    Your yard sale finds.

    I've used mine for that as well, but they are so thin in places I'm worried about breaking it.

    went to Kingman, car/air show

    Bottom picture plane is a TBF Avenger torpedo bomber. Same thing that the first George Bush flew in WWII. Not many Zero's left. San Diego had one at the old Museum before the fire (1978).

    ^^^Those are the exact reasons I have never pulled the trigger on that floor. I do so much welding/cutting and floor jack/jack stands that I think I would damage the floor in short order. I love the look of them (even envy).

    Stereo Systems

    I've got three smaller boom boxes, not powerful, but good enough sound. One is a boombox for my Sirius satellite, one is for an Ipod and the last one has the radio and CD. My girls loaded up all my CD's on that Ipod, which is new to me and pretty cool.

    anyone ever use, or see......

    I know the roofing material looks "like" that, but is twelve foot long and about 4 foot wide. That is a cool idea.

    Torque Wrenches

    Ouch! I think we all have those tools that give us the creeps. I have a table saw that scared me before and after I mangled the end of my finger. My wife asked if I wanted to go in for stitches...."where's the duct tape?"......
