Why would I fix it myself, which I do know how, when I can have the responsible party pay for a pro to fix it. The panes are very large, they will be a (no pun intended) pain in the ass to handle.

I'm looking for an old school glazier to repair a 150 year old double hung window. Tried looking one up on-line and can't seem to find anyone local. I actually miss the Yellow Pages, can't find diddly with google.

You can buy a bare threaded barrel from almost any online retailer, no problem. Just make sure whatever muzzle device you buy separately is compliant, and have it permanently attached, ie pinned and welded. You could also forego a muzzle device altogether and get a non threaded barrel, or get a threaded barrel and install a simple thread/muzzle protector.

Where are you buying these valves? I've had a lot of shit go bad because of ethanol, but I don't think I've ever seen a fuel shut-off valve go. The problem isn't seeing fuel for 9 months, it's when the machine sits too long with untreated E10 soaking up water, and then the water and alcohol form a gel that gaks up the works and exasperates the other long term storage problem, varnishing. I recommend going to a landscape supply shop, or mower repair shop that stocks parts and get a better valve made of metal. You will also benefit from adding a fuel filter to catch crap before it gets to the valve and carb. It is a very easy mod

That's weird. I wonder why the valve swells. We do two things when winterizing our lawn svs equipment. First, we add fuel stabilizer made specifically for ethanol gas, then we run the machine for a few minutes, just to make sure the stabilized fuel has reached the carb. Then we shut off the fuel valve and let the carb and bowl run dry.

Marinas usually have ethanol free gas. Is this for 2 cycle lawn equipment?

It looks like weather will be permitting. Sunday's forecast is mid 60's, cloudy with little chance for rain.

This will be a good year for strawberries. I dug up my patch to make room for something else, because the fucking squirrels eat the berries before we do. Anyway, the plants were unusually large and vigorous for this time of year, more healthy than they ever looked. It seemed a shame to chuck 'em so I potted them and gave to a neighbor that already has a patch. They also have a dog so their garden is safe. All I have is three stupid cats that sit in windows and make a weird chattering noise while they try to kill squirrels with their mind.

Time to resurrect this thread. Who else is gardening this year? I just finished grounding a dozen tomato plants, a few San Marzano Heirloom and a bunch of Roma. Going to try my hand a canning this year too. Also doing a proper herb garden. Parsley, basil, oregano, rosemary and english thyme. My wife is going to try growing broccoli, kale (YUK!) and peppers for the first time.

Have you or your friend actually looked at any of the plethora? They are not all black ugly fabric bags with MOLLE straps. Some of the bags are downright stylish. I dunno man, which do you think might look better, a CCW handbag one can live with, or perhaps even like, or the makeup job the mortician's beautician can do because you got smoked while playing Feeley Meeley in a handbag? Perhaps your lady friend should look at some of the YT videos posted by women about their particular experiences carrying. Also, there are at least two or three web sites (commercial) specifically for female CCW accessories. Here's one --> https://thewellarmedwoman.com/

There are a plethora of companies that make handbags specifically for concealed carry. These "tactical" pocketbooks have a separate compartment designed to make drawing quick and easy, all while securely retaining the pistol in a covert fashion.

The camera orientation and aspect ratio. It would have been more believable in 4:3 with some 80's style filters to simulate 420 lines of resolution. I really hate when people video some event with the camera held upright, recording in portrait mode. It's like the opposite of wide screen, I guess you could call it unnecessary narrow screen. Is it that hard to rotate the damn phone 90 degrees so we can get the whole picture. Holding the phone in portrait mode is stupid, unless you are on a video call, then it's not stupid, because it makes sense. I mean, have people forgotten how to take a damn video.

Digital Combat Simulator. It's fake.

Weather permitting, the shoot at Stafford Forge is on for next Sunday, May 19th.

That's gotta be fake. The SR71 was retired long before people learned how to incorrectly hold an iphone while recording video.

That looks like a place setting for Leon the Professional.

That was very difficult to read, because it's mostly an accurate representation.

That looks like too much fun. So, probably illegal.

When I was shopping for a small movable work surface for my press, I looked at the FA folding stand. I saw that it had excellent reviews, but I just couldn't get past that it looks like an ironing board, and we all know how stable they are. I'm sure the FA stand will work great, but I'm with njJoniGuy re the Workmate shop bench. It looks more stable and as an added bonus, you could use it for a bunch of things, instead of just one. If your space is limited, you may as well have something taking up precious space that is useful for more than just one thing.

Did you wake up in a puddle of spent cases?

I wonder how the CA hood rats can afford to fill up their 7mpg low riders and escalades. I mean, with gas prices that high, you gotta be pretty damned mad at someone to do a drive by shooting.

@ESB If you are taking up the mantel for this, I suggest anyone interested in being a part of it PM you directly.

Most of the commie range fodder does not have a steel core. What makes the bullet (projectile) magnetic is the bi-metal (soft steel/zinc) jacket. Ranges usually ban the russian stuff because the jacket can spark and start a fire. It would be helpful if there were pictures, with some detail, of each item for sale, a picture is worth a thousand words. Also, each item for sale must have a price too. The more info a seller provides, the more complete a WTS is, the less uncertainty about an item for sale.

I'm happy whenever I see the positive influence we have had on you.

Have not tried it yet since I have a few buckets of RGC, STS and AA hulls. The BP tool is for just in case.
