AZ BS Thread 4²0

Safe travels, best of luck.

 

Shops new compressor should be plumbed in this weekend. This is hopefully our last major shop breakage and we can get back to full time production work. I quote everyone 4-6 weeks these days.

Not too many hard core Tundra wheelers besides you and Stefan. So no plans for a 3rd gen version now. You can come by the shop sometime and we can get some measurements and your thoughts. We can go from there.
Both George and Stumbles are getting new .250 wall sliders soon. I really cant wait to see what they do to them.

Do you feel insecure as a man next to that pig? Id imagine it would be like being in a gym locker room with 80s Ron Jeremy walking around naked.

Youre still allowed to visit in AZBS mang. We all enjoyed your glass jars. Take care and good luck to you.

 

This is what George requested. I can get the price per stick and compare. Did you want something for the PW?

 

buy once, cry once?

I'm taking the lazy engineer path of more metal instead of perfect design. iirc a couple ttora guys were using 1/4" wall a long time ago.

 

Safe travels. You're still welcome to hang out in the AZBS thread.

 

We’re down for some 188 dom. Dunno if 1/4” fits our attempt at lightweight solutions.

@RPS1030 whatchoo think about chromoly for weight vs dent resistance? Regardless of price.

 

What a nice secretary you are.

 

I think we’ve all been personally victimized by a stock Powerwagon on 37’s at one point or another.

 

I think they are getting picked up tomorrow. @NightProwler

 

See I called it.... you would be close

 

I remember seeing this a while back.

 

Hah, that’s when you call someone off of Uber, or some other random site to show up in your place.

 

Hi. Haven't visited this thread for a long time, hope all is going well.

Your drive along SR87 sure didn't match what I saw on BLM land by Painted Rock in a four mile circle around the trailer. I saw maybe four saguaros less than 10 ft tall.

If you read the link one of your local guys posted https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4978412/
it states that in Saguaro National Park "Only three plants have been found with estimated germination dates after 1993".

That's not good. We lived in Mesa for three years 1996-1999 and are thinking about retiring in AZ.

There are natural cycles of drought, disease, but it was glaring the lack of little ones to replace the old ones. I figure human hands have to correct it by planting seeds.

I was thinking those non-native javelinas have a lot to do with the decline. Those ugly little buggers have only been in AZ for the past 100 yrs or so, yes? They're herbivores, so a sweet little saguaro sapling without spines is like a fresh strawberry to them. I bet if you get rid of them the saguaro sapling population jumps.

Safe travels.

 

RE, javelinas, saw this - http://www.azgfd.gov/w_c/conservation/CGMP/CGMP-Javelina.pdf

Arizona wants to maintain a heathy population of javelinas. I'm not a big fan of maintaining habitat and population for a non-native species.

 

Looks like a sausage fest.
