I used to be doing well in AA... Now i buy drinks just to compete with @Star-Lord

 

Thanks I needed that. Just finished 1 of 4 mounts. It’s a lot to do. Got to keep going.

 

come on bruh you got this!

 

Quick Moab backcountry for those who have been there:

As far as the campfire ban is concerned, are the CSA approved outdoor propane burners good to go? Has anybody taken one there?

They look like a campfire, but they're basically a supported propane burner with a ring and rocks. I was going to confirm it with the Hans Flat ranger station, but I got up late today and missed them.

 

So while prepping for bed lining my sills I found that One of the driver side windows has been busted at some point

 

Correct, a contained propane burner is fine.

We used one on the white rim legally when there was an open pit ban.

 

Nice - thanks!

The ranger I got our passes from said they were fine, but he also said to verify that with the Hans Flat ranger as well. It looks like they're open tomorrow, I'll give him a quick buzz then.

A few of us are hitting the Maze in mid April, and I just HATE the idea of not having at least some kind of a fire!

 

I just got a tank filled for a trip to the maze i have planned. a 1 gallon 5 pound tank should do better than the little coleman guys.

 

I might do the same, a big-assed 20# seems like it would be way too big, and I don't know how long the little ones would last at all.

Are you going to be at Jason's tomorrow? I got my lift done!

 

Yeah best to be sure for that area

 

Yep - that's why I'm giving them a call before we go.

 

Ed I will bring it tomorrow for you to see

 

I just looked them up, somewhat, and it says 7-11hrs on a 20# tank. So a 5# tank wound last 2.5 hrs or less

 

To mush to post here but got two mounts done and i'll do the other two tomorrow.

 

They are 265/70/17 duratracs. No lift no rub.

 

What’s your spool speed set at?

 

Got some work done on my trailer today. Hope to have it test ready in a few days. For anyone who hasn't seen the build yet.

I moved the axle forward an inch or so which helped with centering the wheels. Shocks arrived this afternoon, so I'll probably get to install those tomorrow.

 

Set on awesome. It's not the welder why my beads look like that. It's all me. Not very experianced with mig plus I also get a lot of anxiety when welding mig. I'm a stick welder. My welder sets it self for thickness of steel. Miller 215. I can always adjust it but it doesn’t need to. The settings work well where they are.

 

Reason I was asking is because a lot of them look really good, but a couple look like you say being nervous. I’m a welder from way back and it’s a fun hobby of mine. You look like you have a solid foundation, just need to take a deep breath, focus and start spooling. Trick I like to tell people with MIG is to be light on finger heavy on thumb loose on wrist and maintain singular motion.

 

That was our rental, we got plenty of letters from the HOA, fuck them. Our new home, zero HOA and it’s great
