    o/t guns safes or safes in general

    I am looking at gun safes and also those for home use. I have a question that I hope someone can answer for me concerning the fire ratings. If a safe has a fire rating of 1200 deg for 30 minutes, how much damage will the contents suffer in 1 hour? what I'm really asking is it worth the extra...

    Office pay vs shop pay?

    The way I see it is, if you make the big money you are going to earn it one way or another. Either putting in the hours or putting out the muscle whether you are management or not.

    OT Home school

    Several of my relatives are teachers in the public schools. They all say that the more the parents are involved with the students schooling, both at home and at school, the better the student does. I believe from those comments that parental involvement in the childs life makes a big difference...

    3 point hitch does not stay level

    Tx Jim hit the nail on the head. Those N model fords were terrible about not staying set. If you don't have a rooster comb, do you have an overunning clutch on it? this is put on the pto and the bush hog drive shaft attached to it so the bush hog doesn't keep driving the tractor after the clutch...

    smallest wire wheel

    Are you using the stainless steel brushes? They did that for me too. I have used the plain steel brushes for years with no problems.

    just got back from PA

    Larry, it was especially refreshing to see your posts today. I had been reading some other forums where folks were arguing about different things. Then amongst all of this negativity there was your music and pictures. Thanks for the uplift. Rick

    Pole saws

    I was in the same boat you are. I needed a pole saw and a Stihl wAs really expensive. I had a Stihl string trimmer already. I bit the bullet and got the $600 Stihl extendable pole saw and am really glad that I did now. It is so versatile. I had to to sell a few more things to get it but am...
