    Caliper compression tool

    Thanks guys. I think for my uses I'll give that first option a go. It probably won't get a ton of use over the years but I'll be nice to have I'm sure.

    Caliper compression tool

    It sounds like I'm due for new brake pads and I'm wondering what caliper tool you guys like. I've used a c-clamp in the past but seem to have lost it. Looking at amazon there are lots of options. Which one do you guys use?

    Any Mtn Bikers on RME?

    Are there any tricks to painting a bike? I'm thinking about picking up a used pink strider for my youngest and thought that maybe I'd paint it. Is a rattle can acceptable or what should I you use?

    Favorite camp chairs

    I haven't been as pleased with my ARB chair lately and when I saw a "director" style chair at costco a couple weeks back I bought one. Its got a cute side table which will probably break the first time I put anything on it but it was pretty comfortable. I'm thinking that I'll try and get...

    Let's Talk Lawns

    What's your goal of running your zones in 3 phases? I imagine to get your allotment spread out as much as possible? Your lawn will be happier if it grows roots deep. Smart irrigation controllers will sometimes cycle zones on and off to get an air gap between water so when it comes back on the...

    Political So now what

    No worries. Like I said at the start of this yesterday, it doesn't matter because nothing will change.

    Isn't that what a driver's license is?

    Political So now what

    I guess I'd argue that we all have life so good and easy today because of regulation. I'm sure people complained about seatbelts back in the day the same way we complain about DEF and start/stop tech and the other crap that comes on a new car. Some of that stuff stuck around and some of it went...

    Political So now what

    I accept that there are many risks in our day to day lives. I also recognize that over time when things have been identified that can lower the risk we all face it's generally not been a bad thing. You and others have mentioned cars and driving. Can you not say that the car you daily drive now...

    Political So now what

    What would I like to change? Well, I'd like my 6, almost 7 year old to wake me up at night because he had a bad dream about dinosaurs in the house rather than because he is worried about going to school. I'd like to not have my wife send me snippets and bios of the kids that were killed while...

    Political So now what

    There was a school district officer at the school when the kid showed up and he wasn't able to stop him. Neither were the two other cops that showed up right afterwards.

    We won't pay to protect them, hell, we won't even pay teachers and aids to educate them. The school tax would have to go up which nobody here would tolerate.

    Political So now what

    19 kids and 2 teachers are dead. So now what? Nothing. Nothing is going to change. Actually, I predict that there will be at least three additional school shootings before the end of July. There will be a lot of talk about clamping down and passing legislation for background checks or...

    Wanted Tree trunks.

    @Gravy Do you know how long ago was it cut down or what kind of tree it was? Send me a pic if you want and I could probably tell you if I'd be interested in it. My cell is 801-856-9469. @Pile of parts that'd be great. Yeah just let me know what they are and we can chat. Thanks.

    Wanted Tree trunks.

    I bought a wood lathe and am looking for green wood that I can turn into bowls and whatnot. I'm interested in hardwood (no conifers) trees and have a chainsaw so I can come cut rounds to the size I need and haul them off. Ideally, the trunk of the tree would need to be over 12-18" around to be...

    Mount Rushmore Trip

    We went when I was a kid and the thing I remember most was the place we camped had a water slide that was pretty cool and we went to a drive through the zoo kind of thing for bears. I still laugh thinking about the pickup truck driving through it pushing meat and pumpkins and stuff out the back...

    Old coyote hunting vid

    I watched the first montage to 2:45 or so and you had to have killed 20 coyotes. I can't even imagine the count after 90 minutes. 😳. For real though, you stopped making videos because you shot them all for the DVDs right?
