If they are struggling it might be wise to get a soil test done. Doing any amendments without one is just like throwing parts at a broken car without getting diagnostics. Other than treating really bad soil issues there isn't much to planting trees. Dig the hole 3x wider than the pot, pull out...

I appreciate the offer but I found something on thingiverse that should work out for me. I "customized" it to my specs and its been rendering for 3 hours now, who knows how much longer it'll take. I've got 4 civil engineers in my family that all have CAD skills. I've had my one brother help...

I've played with tinkercad a bit, as well as Fusion and some of the other offerings. I'm just not good because I haven't used any of them. Full disclosure I bought a funnel but it arrived cracked and was really flimsy and so I decided I needed to not be a doofus and just print what I need. My...

I need to print a funnel. 2.5" small opening to about 10". I haven't looked hard enough for one on the webs and I don't want to cad it either... That is the problem with 3d printers for people without cad design skills.

Nice pick up Stephen. What kind of mileage are you expecting to get, what about range? Are you aware of anyone local that is wheeling or building one? I'm definitely interested in seeing what you do to and with it. :cool:

Willow is also good for what I'm wanting. I may zip up during lunch tomorrow and pick up what I can get into the back of my cruiser.

I'm curious for carving. Softwoods (pines) and ring porous (oak and ash) aren't great for carving though. Prime carving wood though are the fruit wood trees, nut trees, maples, and birch. There is a lot in between as well. I scavenged some sycamore and maple last week, but would be happy if I...

Do you know what kind of tree it is/was?

@UNSTUCK where do you get that carne asada meat and is it pre-sliced like that? That looks really tasty.

I smoked a tri tip today kind of like it was brisket. It was on for like 5.5 hours and only hit 195° but it was time to eat so I pulled it off. It was crazy good. Like, probably the best meat I've ever cooked good. I took this only pic right after chewing out my son for complaining and crying...

Yeah I've been watching out for the announcement and saw it come out a week or two ago. I'm keeping my eyes on this and we'll see what happens.

Dude, we've been over this before.

@shortstraw8 have you ever used tri tip with a fat cap? I don't think I've ever seen one at Costco or smiths.

I drove around during lunch by Liberty park. That area got ravaged. I scored some branches to try some spoon carving on but I'd rather have the trees not fall over.

I got a bit more done on the tile. I have metal bullnose edging to box the window (the inside of the window is going to be tiled as well) and I spent a ton of time fiddling with that yesterday. My neighbor said to just butt joint the pieces but I think that'd look bad so I decided to try and...

I did about 30 pounds of pork shoulder Sunday. I gave one to my neighbor for helping me with my tile and took the other three to a family thing last night. Everyone said it was good and I suppose it was fine but I guess I just don't love pork. I did watch Chef Toms new video on smoked...

I bought stuff for this project probably in April and was waiting for a neighbor to come help me out. Short notice but we started this morning and got a lot done. He had to take off but I got everything around the range and up done on my own. I still have a bit to do around the window but...

Bees?

I picked up the greens mower and tried my hardest to ruin my lawn today. Depending on the angle it seems like I accomplished it. Front and back lawns are down to .75". It's rough. The back isn't actually too bad but the front is wrecked. I think from here the plan is going to be getting some...

Are they your designs? I appreciate the hustle but have no interest in pushing them that hard. After getting my first one we somehow managed to justify one for the office and it's been garbage. It's still sitting on the desk and I recoil a little every time someone gets too close to it because...
