Metalworking Hunttalkers!
Completed the box today, started the next super-urgent-want-it-yesterday project today. Once again, I had to create the drawing as they just told us what the part was supposed to accomplish and nothing more.- np307

Today's mega urgent super important project that the plant wants done yesterday: a ceiling cover. Went and measured yesterday and came up with a design (I guess this is the year of developing my technical drawing skills) and building it today.- np307

2024 Turkey Season!
Our opening day was Saturday. I went but all the deer hunters were out in full force. Didnt hear anything. My buddy and I drew a special 3-day permit that opened today. We were on one at first light but a hen stole him away. She passed by us within 25 yards probably. Bow we're motoring around...- np307

Yeah I think you'll be good to go. They wanted to span 17' with 4x3 1/8th wall tubing.- np307

That has more structural integrity than the thin wall tubing one plant wanted us to us to support a load-bearing wall that they cut down without supporting first.- np307

Metalworking Hunttalkers!
Well, last week a big hurdle got thrown the company's way. My boss (the owner) broke his leg riding a dirt bike and is out of commission for 2 months. So that means I've been solo on a lot of stuff and the lead when the part time guys are around. Biggest thing I've been tackling is getting this...- np307

2024 Garden!
Our recommended planting date is April 15, seemed like it was going to be a warm spring so I went ahead and planted April 1. We had a couple day cold snap but it never hit freezing.

School zones
It's impossible to speed in a school zone here because they back traffic up an hour before school opens.- np307

Good for you Botswana
I can't believe this thread has gone this long. Theres no need for a back and forth on this. I'm the only one with righteous hunting motives and everyone else is a bloodsucking insect.- np307

Bad deal...
They dropped anchor. My understanding is that you're right, they are able to do that even without power. My dad has some professional experience in this area and said that they probably had some amount of rudder control too, even without power. It just doesn't matter. Takes way too long to...- np307

Plate ‘em up
Was gonna smoke some ribs yesterday but I discovered that I was out of pellets so I just did them in the oven. They were okay but not great. So today I took all the leftover rib meat, chopped it up and made a kind of teriyaki glaze and reduced it all down. Served with steamed rice and roasted...- np307
