So, got one of those dreaded calls from my wife :eek: A/C is acting up in her car. Judging from her description it sounded like the compressor was going out, or it was low on freon. So, on my way home, I pick up a can of freon with the gauges, pretty much killed $50. Hook the gauges up to her...

Quick not so easy question. How do you determine if a wall is load bearing? My lovely wife decided it's time to do a small remodel in the house. :eek: Anyway, most of it is just cosmetic. Scrape ceilings, repainting, replacing 30 yo baseboards, ect..... The one thing that has always...

Thinking about getting good one of these. Anyone have any experience with it? Looked at tractor data, and seems to be similar in horsepower. About 300 lbs lighter then the l185. Not seeing any position control for the three point hitch. Thinking it's similar to the bx in that regards. Supposed...

Got fed up with some stumps I had to mow around. So, I figured I would give it a shot with the kubota before I rented a mini ex :D Now mind you, the stumps weren't very large. Largest is maybe a foot in diameter. But has been rotting for five or six years. So I hooked up the box blade and...

Started tearing down the old gal to replace the axle seal today :) I first soaked the fender bolts with a 50/50 mix of acetone and ATF fluid. A medicine bulb worked good for getting the mixture into the tight spot for the bolts. ;) After applying morning and night for 4 days, I decided to...

Just venting here. :mad: Had a really nice day to do yard work. So I touched off the burn piles. :D Had great aspirations of being a pyromaniac :D And burn off all the leaves as well. Go to start the blower, prime it like normal, and the bloody thing refused to start. It worked like a champ...

Got a call from "Windows IT Department" today :rolleyes: Now to back track a little. I've had a couple missed calls pop up from this one number on my work cell phone. Called the number back and would get a recording saying " the Verizon wireless customer has disconnected this number, had the...

Has anyone else noticed some wonky changes in there insurance after the first of the year? Had to go to the docs today for a back issue. Apparently it wasn't my back, but my hip popped out of joint :rolleyes: Anyway, noticed on my new insurance card it didn't list any co-pays. So when I got to...

What did you have for your holiday dinner? Wife and I did a repeat of our Thanksgiving dinner. Had three turkeys in the freezer :rolleyes: We inject the turkey with creole garlic butter. Then bake in a baking bag. Comes out so juicy that there isn't any carving. It just falls apart :D It makes...

Post and show off your camper, motor home, or rv. Wife's been looking at campers for a couple years now. Finally got really serious about it a couple months ago. We were overwhelmed at first. There are so many brands, options and features available. So we ended up going through a ton of them...

Started working on the dune buggy for the grand kiddos :D So far I've got it clean and welded the steering arm back on. I narrowed it down to a blown motor (no compression), and the electrical has been cobbed together and needs to be cleaned up and fixed. Turn signals need to be replaced as...

Ya'll ever get a chance to visit Branson Missouri, they have a farm and auto museum that was pretty impressive. Plus just about everything was for sale. Tractors were all antique ranging from the 1900's to the 50's. Same for the cars. I spent a good couple hours wandering around and drooling...
