I don’t know what to say to this thread it’s awesome. I’m gonna dig for some donations. As @Jon1212 has always been good to me and has honored me buy letting me build him a saw. So with that said. Let’s start with this and see what else can dig up.

I would try and donate fixing something, but I have yet to be able to fix my mini Mac yet, so it’ll probably be better to me to donate monetarily when I get some spare money.

I’m a little confused is this money to send Jon back to California. If so I’m going to roll up the coins in muh piggy bank.

Also another fund raising idea. What if for a limited time we did rent out pigs and donated the money.


I am blown away by the generosity already. I think that goal may not be high enough. Great group of guys.

I've always heard it's not truly giving if it doesn't hurt a little. In that vein I have another gift. I am trailer poor at the moment, but would love to offer up for your appraisal a M105a1/a2 1.5ton surplus military trailer. It will have side boards and bows, just no head board or top. It has a bed lining sprayed in that the Marines didn't even jack up. The trailer jack is adjustable and the lunette(ring) will be flipped down to help with towing. I will do a basic 4 wire trailer light hook up. I'll post up pics shortly. Also, you'll need a the correct hitch to pull one, I'll post a pic of mine to avoid confusion.

We Jarheads don’t tear up and destroy everything we come across...but I can turn you onto some heavy crayon eaters that’ll make short work of it!

You sure about that? I thought Marines could destroy anything. My friend Bill is ex-marine and if it holds up to him it's Bill-proof, which is several steps above bulletproof.

As an old coworker we called Bubblegum used to say, he could tear up an anvil with a rotten banana.

I was never in the military, thank ya'll for your service. That being said, I always preferred Crayola... 'specially the red ones

Are you *s-wordting me, a military trailer?! This is amazing and has to be a first in a raffle.

This trailer, and a few others, came from Camp LeJune. It's in much better shape than most.

I buy and sell these. Most are overbuilt and underrated when it comes to capacity. I can load firewood, fully stacked (approximately 180 cf) and generally the overloads aren't even touching. My 2500 Dodge pulls it easily. The only downer, this version only has air brakes. The a3 models have surge brakes. Have a great day guys, I'm going to the Charlotte Auto Fair with the boy and nephew.

Do Asians also have an affinity for pigs?

I will assume you are the SME.

You are in the Minority of Jarheads that repair stuff: my local former Helicopter mechanic turned Diesel specialist is as well.

Every other time,

If it Absolutely, Positively Must Be Completely & Utterly Destroyed, or FUBAR’d,

Send In The Marines.

[Miller Mod Saws]

That is amazing Carl

Ya know. I’ve been down and out in my life. We all will be at one point. If your not. Your very fortunate. Not only is this brotherhood here. One of the backbones of my business. It’s just simply a hell of a lot of good people. If I can directly help a brother in need like most others here will. We should do our best to make that happen. Sometimes just a little help makes the rest of a family’s life better and stronger.

Cheers to the brotherhood here and Thank you to all Who make this forum amazing.

Done

I'm confused, are you offering to pimp out some pigs?
