    I think this is sad

    Not confronting thieves has become the norm in all businesses in my experience. Company policy. CVS, Walgreens, Frys Food, Big Lots, antique malls, Cabelas, Ace Hardware, O' Riellys, Safeway, Harbor Freight, QT, all (3) Dollar stores.... I (or the wife) have either seen it or heard their...

    Me too, although I picture busting out the 40 or 50 old stumps on my high country property.

    The bin store I got this from is not very big, but it started out with about a half million dollars in new auto parts: fenders, front clips, complete front end suspension parts, struts, water pumps, headlight assys, computers, bumpers, complete dashes, etc.. They have sold most of it off, but...

    Some folks just think different

    Looks like we'll be saving a LOT of money taking food stamps away from that one....

    Drain valve for a rain barrel

    Depends on how big a valve you need. For years I have used plastic 1/4"npt valves drilled & tapped directly into the side/bottom edge of blue plastic barrels for my drip system. No trouble or leaks for many years.

    Thoughts on Propane Weed Torch

    My neighbor let the weeds in her 1" minus gravel front yard completely take over and didn't want massive amounts of chemicals in the yard. (kids) I bought the HF burner and toasted the weeds to death, then she used roundup sparingly to keep control after that. Worked great, but this yard was...

    Ever had this happen?

    I posted this a year ago: We had a local mom & pop hardware store that employed a fat ornery, middle-aged woman with virtually no people skills at all. (and no hardware skills or knowledge to boot) I would ask for something like an 8mm x 1.25 bolt 50mm long, and she would ask "What is it for?"...

    Picked up some more transport chain

    Was gifted a Stainless Steel chain on my trip back east. .408 dia, 22ft long. Not quite as strong as steel chain, but not a problem for what I haul. Pretty stuff.

    Thread sealant that works

    I used this for decades for nearly everything. It is good for gas, oil, diesel, most solvents, water, high pressure, low pressure, steam. It is clay based. I mainly like it for NPT threaded connections, like hydraulic fittings. I have never had a joint leak using this stuff, but I can't say...
