Block and Tackle, Chain Wench
I bought a 1 ton rated chain hoist at Harbor Freight. It works OK for me and only cost about $50 or $60. I would not overload it much though. Good luck! -

Harley Shopping
And don't forget the oil spots wherever you park them! In some respects the newer bikes are much better. But if they do quit on you, the older ones are much easier to get going again with whatever tools you happen to have with you. Finding GOOD older bikes is not easy. Good luck! -

Blaine, I bet I know some of your family. Did you go to FHS?- Hal --WA

Note to self
Hi Dave! Are we having fun yet? I spent about 5 hours on my tractor yesterday trying to move snow. I broke one of the chains, so I had to fix that. And somehow, the trip loader no longer wants to hook closed, but I found that it works fairly well pushing the snow loose. I sure got cold...- Hal --WA

O/T What have you lost?
It didn't happen to me, but I saw where a UPS Semi somehow lost the back trailer of his double while going down the Freeway in the City of Spokane. The driver and UPS got real lucky. The trailer front settled down on the landing gear and slid to a stop. It stayed more or less straight in the...- Hal --WA

Metal snow shovels?
I prefer an aluminum grain scoop. I tried a plastic snow shovel, but managed to break it the first season. One little trick I will pass on: If you spray a shovel with Pam or other cooking spray when it is warm and dry and before you start shoveling, the snow will not stick to the shovel... -

pole top disconnect
I wouldn't do that! Yes, it would probably work, but if someone happened to flip on the main breaker it would energize the downed lines, possibly doing damage to the generator, and at worst, maybe frying someone trying to fix the power lines. Not wanting to spend the money for a real transfer... -

O/T Fride light kept on saw this the other day on here
I have an old non-working fridge in my garage that I store things in that I don't want to ever freeze. I jury rigged a 40 watt light in a fixture in the bottom where the crisper bins used to be. It seems to work OK. 130 volt bulbs last longer than regular bulbs, but the diode idea is a good... -

600 Sitting in Field
Depends on what you need, and what is there. If the tires and wheels are usable, it is a 4 or 5 speed transmission and the 3 point top cover is there, it might be worth a couple of hundred. If it is a SOS, that is probably why it was never reunited with the engine half. Unless you need SOS... -

O/T Merril lLynch Ceo wants 10 m bonus
I'd like a $10million dollar bonus too! But I really don't expect any money at all. It would be interesting to know just what this guy's contract says, and how any bonus is computed. Although paying the CEO that bonus would be a public relations disaster, it could be that the wording of his...- Hal --WA

Anyone built their own outdoor wood boiler?
I would think it is possible, but do you really want to? I would worry big time about building codes and zoning regulations, especially if I lived in a town. Such a system, even if you build it yourself, would be a large initial investment. And if it gets very cold where you are, you would...- Hal --WA

OT, Fire safes
I have what is supposed to be a fire safe in my basement, but it is probably about 7 or 8 cubic feet of interior room. It is old, and has a key lock. It is also extremely heavy, but could be moved if someone wanted to badly enough. I mostly keep income tax records and the like, that I might...- Hal --WA

640 FORD
I would add: don't try this at all unless you know for sure that the clutch is not stuck and if the brakes don't work right. And be really careful and ready to shut off the ignition or throttle down.- Hal --WA

Frozen Door Locks
If the problem is in the lock cylinder itself, I have had pretty good luck heating the key with a lighter and then pushing it into the key hole. Within a couple of seconds the key should turn. Then to keep it from happening again, use some lock solvent that has graphite in it. On the other...
