Your garage

 

Nice !

Do it yourself . It's not hard .

 

Nice lookin rig, Rob


Just finished doing maintenance on the new trailer. Forgot how much fun repacking bearings can be

 

So the only part I need to rebuild is the nitrogen fill tank. Seems to be that the costs are. Oil $54
Needle $30
2 rebuild kits $68
Refill tanks ??$300?? Or a local place if I can find it.

 

I have a tool that holds the grease, you lay the bearing in place to top back on and push. Bearing (any size) is greased and you are not a mess

 

I have a tool that does the same thing, palm of my hand. One of those wipes you gave me and I'm not a mess anymore

It was a mess anyways though. Whoever packed the bearings last time didn't do a good job. One was pretty dry, still had grease but there wasn't any extra that's for sure. The other side had loads of grease but I think someone literally pumped in general purpose grease so there was a lot of it but the wrong stuff so I had to make sure to get all that crap out of there.

 

Rob: sent ya a text. Don't know if you got it. Kinda urgent to help a friend out

 

Thanks guys. Yes Alex I got and replied to your text

 

Thanks buddy.

 

Thanks bud! She's in a real bind

 

Happy Monday, faces!
Finally got the new scope sighted in this weekend. Pics to follow once I figure out how to upload pictures from my phone.

 

Photobucket app is what I use .

 

Rob did you start playing around with the new toy ?

 

No not yet. I had a big family cookout yesterday that took up the whole day. I have a few things to look up today. Convenient that I work doing this kind of stuff. LOL

 

Boomstick w/the new scope mounted




And my sighting target. Except for a flinch shot it was a pretty easy zero. I couldn't find my high-powered binoculars, though, so after every shot I had to keep walking up to the target and confirming the shot placement, haha! I probably spent 45 minutes of the hour I spent dialing in the zero just walking back and forth.


And then once I got it zeroed and a shot placed in the center of the red I had a little fun and tested it on the Winchester Rider. Took me two tries but I got him.

 

I told the old ladie I bought this . First question out of her mouth was can I shoot it hahaha

 

Is that a remote firing system mounted on top there?

 

I have a crazy friend that has 2 gatling guns. One is just for show. He has it on a display in the family room. It's mounted on a tripod with a soldier firing the gun behind it. LOL

 

that's a good woman right there...

 

must be nice to live in a state that lets you have all the fun toys...

Noel, my father law lives up in Waterville and I would like to take him on a deer hunt, it has been a long time since he has gone hunting and I was wondering if you knew of any good spots
