Good evening guy's

A local guy makes them from
Quick saw blades.View attachment 274215
I made 8 hour crockpot carolina bbq ribs again
For Christmas dinner
They fall apart.

Like that little skinning knife Dave! Just looks like one you WANT to put in your hand.
I would go hunting just to have a reason to use it.

Just means you aint scared to try.
That aint a bad characteristic. Actually a good thing. If you dont go, you dont know. Cant Google everything.
I'm quoting someone here, just cant remember who, but this was a good one for me.
"Good judgement comes from experience.
Experience comes from bad judgement."
I'm one of the most "experienced" people youve ever met.

My gpa always said if ya don’t make mistakes ya ain’t doing anything [emoji2957]

Thanks Brent. I actually messed up my Echo 490 earlier today. I went way overboard on a muffler mod by drilling a 1/2” hole in the center. It’s crazy loud now, but it has a nice sound to it. I’ll probably replace the muffler because now there’s no backpressure

We all make mistakes every once in a while

How many mm’s do you think others have screwed up before getting it right
Put a smaller pipe in hole and weld or braze it

I seem to fukk something up all the time though

We all make fukk ups, it's what you do about them that makes your character. Here's a few quotes I heard from smarter people than me over the years.
Father, "Did you learn anything?" "it's okay as long as you learned something, if not you're just a damn dummy".
Skipper in Alaska, "Fugg ups aren't even Fugg ups any longer, now they're just standard procedure".
Millwright Boss in Oregon, "If you don't fukk up once in a while, you're not doing anything."
Crane boss, "It's not the end of the world if you make a mistake, just don't make a habit of it."

Even after all that I still Fugg up once in a while. I just fix it, figure out how not to repeat it and move on.

Question....did you take the muffler off and do this drilling or did you do it with the muffler on and then run it?

I should go up to their window and rev it up. I’ve already got the loudest tools in the neighborhood, so why not just make em louder
