    "Angle of repose" or "Dad Bermit"

    It is almost February, I understand the old term "Dad Burmit". NOAA says we are at 100% snow pack. We still have February which can be a heavy snow producer.

    Turkey Lore ?

    Gopher Getter

    No new Truck...sticker shock and synthetic oil.

    I looked at trucks a few days ago and decided to keep my 2004 Chevy Silverado (gas). I am not spending $40,000 when I have a truck that runs perfect. I have changed the oil(dino) and kept up on all maintenance. 176,000 miles. Question: Can I change over to full synthetic oil at this time and...

    B2620 rear ballast

    I finished my ballast from a 50in piece of well casing. Weights about 400 pounds and when working in the woods feels real stable. The trailer tab takes a ball, clevis or pin on hitch. I welded on chain hooks and chain slots which come in real handy. There is approximately 320 pounds of...
