    Removing metal roof sheeting

    Doing that on a pair of old vise-grips works good, too. That's how we used to remove ring-shank neo-nails from pole barn metal.

    Improperly Secured Cargo

    LOL. Many years ago my late FIL hauled a 40ft TV tower home by straddling it under his truck and chaining the tower to the front and back bumpers.

    Rotary mower Opinions

    I bought a Bush Hog 2610 batwing a few years ago to use on my prawn ponds and also for fence row maintenance in August. I can keep the tractor on top of the pond dams with the batwing cutting the water side. The fold-up feature of the batwing also makes the mower easier to transport, get...

    Wood Strength Question

    Ultradog, you are correct. I was in the lumber and related construction business for 30 years. Fiber bend, compression, tension, elasticity or whatever an engineer needs to know is in the WWPA or SPIB design manuals or on-line computer. In the softwood world, yellow pine (followed closely by...

    Hughesnet

    Had Hughes about 4 years ago and it was like having a bad case of slow, chronic scours. Good luck finding someone on tech support that speaks fluent English.

    SeaFoam

    Another slightly different history of Seafoam: From Seafoam's website history page: "Sea Foam was actually developed for the outboard motor and marine market back in the 1930′s. The inventor, Fred Fandrei, owned an outboard motor and it seemed as though every time he went fishing he...

    JD drawbar choices

    My drawbar snapped where it sits on the rear drawbar support bracket (T 21677) while using my batwing on a JD-2630. The 37 year old offset drawbar was rusty in the center while the top and bottom ¼" surfaces looked intact.Don't think it can be welded as it snapped exactly on top of the support...

    It ain't just Dodge

    Truck is a 2002. Typical farm truck and I put on the majority of miles and use it to pull my 20+5 deckover gooseneck and occasionally my 28' box trailer. I've owned it several years, know it was sold new in the Sioux City, SD area and was used to pull a bumper hitch travel trailer before I...

    It ain't just Dodge

    Just picked up my up my F250 Super Duty with 61,000 miles on it from the shop to the tune of $626.00. Both brakes lines have rusted through within the past year, both rear shocks rusted through, caliper brackets and calipers rusted so bad the pistons had seized and front brakes locked up...

    Strength of lumber question

    Ultradog, I searched for my latest WWPA product use manual and absolutely can't find it. Here is a pdf you can download for free or your local lumberyard will have species specific ratings - normally in the back of their truss supplier catalog. How much weight are the saw horses rated for...

    Made my mom cry

    John, There have been a couple of posts here, although well intentioned,that are inaccurate concerning dementia. Please take some time to speak with your mother's medical caregiver, do some research on your own and maybe consider attending a seminar at a local assisted living facility so that...

    Update on Am I being bold or stupid

    Per 2Underage: "As for the hardware store, I would continue to accept the credit cards and look for ways to increase sales. The 3% charge on $1000 is only $30 and I believe that is a pretty reasonable way to offer instant credit. If you start changing payment policy your most likely outcome is...
