I picked up this Ventrac 4500P from a neighbor whose wife made him move back to the city. I hated to lose him as a neighbor but this eased the pain. It came with the brush cutter, mower, rear 3pt and eight wheel kit. It has the water cooled twin cylinder Kawasaki with 870hrs. I looked at new...

I was in Rogers Ar on Saturday, visiting my sister. About 1:30 on Sun morning, a tornado hit the town. Power was out and still is. The worst damage was 1/2 mile from where her house is. She lives on a private road in an Exclusive area with 10 large homes. There were large trees down and a lot of...

Do any of you guys with home weather stations have any recommendations? I’m looking for something that measures temp, rain fall, humidity and wind speed. I don’t mind spending a bit for a good unit and don’t want something that’s not going to be reliable. Any input, good or bad is appreciated.

We got hit with some pretty serious storms, with 70mph-80mph straight line winds over the weekend. An older couple up the road from me had what was a bad day, but could have been a lot worse. A pretty good size tree top snapped off and took the front porch off of their house and punched a few...

After driving used trucks for my entire life, I finally got a new one. I bought this yesterday and am picking it up on Monday. The supply of new diesel trucks has caught up with demand and dealers around me are offering some pretty hefty discounts on high end option packages. I guess they...

I had a nice portable 12v tire inflator that I kept in my vehicle. My wife took it for her second vehicle. The one she took is no longer available and I need to find a replacement. I see a lot online but don't want to end up with a POS. I'm generally skeptical of online descriptions/reviews...

I have a neighbor who always leaves the ram extended when he shuts off his splitter. It sits under a tree, uncovered and it doesn't matter if it's horizontal or vertical, the ram is always left extended, even when stored long term. I asked him why he does it that way and he said that's what he...

Have any of you guys gotten your Covid shots yet? I got my first one (Pfizer) today. I was told that I might have some discomfort at the injection site, tonight and tomorrow. I've had plenty of injections in my life but never one like this. It feels like someone hit me in the shoulder with a...

Thread for discussion and pics of your Rimfires. Here's a few of the ones I have. L-Marlin 39M R-Browning BL22 CZ 455fs in .17HMR

I retired today. After 44+ years of working in a very dynamic corporate environment, I closed my office door for the final time. It was hard to walk out and know I wouldn't be going back.

My wife has been wanting a crew cab side by side for taking the grandkids to the creek, on the far side of our property. We have an 835i JD Gator, which she says is a Geezer mobile, refuses to drive and hates to ride in, because it doesn't have a cab, windshield or stereo and is always full of...

When I was a kid, one of the places we lived, was in a large subdivision in St. Louis. One day, while riding my bike to a friends house, I stopped at a garage sale. Among the baby clothes, toys and other junk for sale, was an old Cresent Arms 12ga hammerless SxS shotgun with 30" fluid steel...

There's an older couple, both in their mid 80's, that live down the road from me. In the winter, their only heat source is wood, from an OWB. Every year, in March, the old man gets a load of logs delivered. He generally has the wood cut, split and stacked by the first of May. His son helped him...

Yesterday morning as my wife and her sister were leaving to go fabric shopping, my wife asked if I wanted her to pick up anything for me. "Yep, there's a sweet little NIB full stock CZ 455 in .17HMR at the gun store." She laughed, shook her head and left.

Are there any payment options, other than PayPal, for Gold Membership. I don't do PayPal. Thanks, Srb08

If you are one of the fortunate ones who stocked up on ammo and reloading components over the last three years, pat yourself on the back, well done. The shortages are back. In a 48hr period last week, most of the low cost .22 ammo disappeared. Same with some reloading components, especially...

Earlier today I picked up a friend of mine from WalMart, after he dropped his truck off for new tires. While there I decided to pick up some washer fluid. I have four vehicles, so I grabbed four gallons. My buddy jokingly said that he'd heard that the factory that makes washer fluid is closed...

How do you guys have your tool boxes organized? I just bought a big Craftsman cabinet style box and am looking for the best way to set it up. Socket organization seems to be a particular problem but not the only one. Pics if you got em. Thanks-

I'm looking for set of dial calipers and a micrometer. I don't like stuff that runs on batteries and don't want vernier. I have vernier now. I'm leaning toward the two below. Can any of you guys, who use measuring tools regularly, help me out. Are there others I should be looking at, or a...

Last summer I picked up this CZ 457 in .22 LR. I ordered a Vortex Diamond Back 4x16x44 AO scope, scope mount and rings at the same time. I hadn't had time to shoot it, except to make sure it worked, until last week. It only has a couple hundred rounds through it but so far I'm pleased. After...
