    Took the ac's out last weekend.
    My grass cutting in now leaf chopping with the mulching blades.
    I try to keep up with them till it's too much then they get chopped up with the Troybilt vacuum chopper sucker upper thingy.

    I have two English Chestnut trees in front of the house and they dropped last week.
    A vanload of Asian folks usually pull up and pick a few buckets of them. Then I run the hulls over with the mulching blades and the shit is flying.

    Damn bud,
    Sorry to hear this, isn't there some part of marijuana that helps that ? I thought I also saw some surgery in the brain would reduce the physical symptoms ??

    It’s probably tougher on us as pet parents than their critter friends. As others have stated they’ll be wonderin where Miss Snickers is at but they’ll figure it out and find a new normal.

    Good morning. Went to bed last night 0% chance of rain so left my wood project out, but tarps handy. Woke up at 0330 so got out of bed to take the dog out and just starting to sprinkle. 100% chance of rain until 9:45 AM now WTF? Got it covered still need to do some finishing touches then paint. Damn thing will having paint drying on it as it is sitting on the trailer going up I-35N at 0500 Sunday morning at this rate.

    High of 61 today, got an Indian Summer day finally even if it is starting off as rain, did I mention that I need to paint? High of 37 tomorrow.

    See a lot of those combinations here in the summer then again come deer season.

    One that I am seeing more often is people using ice houses as campers. And they are building some damn nice ice houses these days.

    Ice Castle likely makes the best ones. Their slogan is You can camp in a fish house but you can't fish in a camper.

    [​IMG]

    Place down in Iowa sells Ice Castle and Jaws Sportsman Castles. Their slogan is You can tell your wife it was on Sale.

    Bill have you tried to get into a boxing or kickboxing class?
    A friend of mine’s girl friend works as a physical therapist at retirement community, she has seen some pretty amazing things due to hand eye coordination drills. Also it’s fun hitting stuff.

    @MoneyMan55 Quick informational question . One of the Blacksmiths I watch , Alec Steele is moving from UK to US ( Montana ) lol I imagine the change in the weather pattern will be interesting for him and with an English accent yeah no date problems lol . Anyhow , he stated he was selling all his heavy equipment as it would be to costly to convert over to US power. All the big machines I have dealt with in fabrication shops usually had power connections / converters for both US and over seas. What I don't know is when that started the oldest electrical big stuff I have seen it on was early 70's Dries and Crump 120 ton press brake. I think he is going to find out real quick the cost may be cheaper to ship and convert when he sees the prices for power hammers, hydraulic press, lathe, surface grinder, Bridgeport even used lol . Oh and I know computers have had the conversion switch since they came out and most big appliances.

    For all those of you who work big machines what have you seen ? This is just a curiosity question for me cause well I like to learn.
