Please, Please, Please....watch THIS. It establishes precisely what is wrong with Minnesota and how you can fix it. JUST WATCH. Rick Kupchella is / was a well-respected news anchor on a major network. THIS is precisely what I experienced in Minneapolis when Connie was in the hospital during...

Not sure why folks dig holes.....when these tanks stay filled most of the time on their own (at least in rainy Minnesota). I only filled mine at the beginning of the season....but this small "sled" tank is pretty low now and I may give it a hand this week with another 55 gallons. I did buy...

Don't let SD get wind of this thread. You will pay. Grin.

....and my deer use these tanks daily and more. Really a gathering point at all three water tanks. I should do more. Cheap / Easy / Effective. What is not to like?

So many neat gadgets coming to market with improved tech. I bought a drill sized leaf blower the other day that is really impressive. $49 on amazon. Amazing power in a small package. Today I saw a small torch on Facebook....and figured it was perfect as a fire starter or even to do Sous...

Ive got three areas with above the ground water tubs. The other two use 100 gallon cattle tubs I bought from TSC. Filled them at the beginning of summer using two 55 gallon water drums....and the rains have kept them mostly filled all summer. This smaller "ice sled" is now just about...

This Herd is not a bad way to fling a small amount of fertilizer. Easier than getting the PTO given unit out for me. Mounting it on the front of my UTV allows me to monitor seeding or fertilizing far better. I've used it for fertilizer several times over the years and never saw any...

Photo dump of today's application of 300 lbs of fertilizer over the brassica and some clover plots. Used a high nitrogen and low phosphorus blend to get higher potash and decent sulfur .....which is what I think my brassica needs. Hopefully we get some rain in the next days to get this...

Took me a bit, as I first downloaded a zip file and found out that did not work. Took my computer to my land and then loaded the two firmware updates....first on my L-Home camera....and then on my G and J camera models. All is well now....and finally getting pics again. Thanks John, glad...

I do own a harbor freight 3 ton floor jack and it does a nice job for me. Used it allot when I was moding my Jeep Wrangler a few years ago.....and also have used one with my tractor. Picks up anything I want lifted so far. Also have a few bottle jacks....and for the money they are...

The other day we were looking at some patio furniture for our new place.....and they showed us a popular brand of high back swivel rocking dining chairs. I told them I was not going to buy that brand but would like their table. I would buy a different brand of chairs that was very similar...

I do have a scope on mine. I think I put a Bushnell Elite scope I had in my "inventory"....but it could also be a Leopold (I don't remember for sure). I like these Henry rifles....and I also have their lever-action 4.10 shotguns. The Henry Company reminds me of when Bill Ruger started making...

For me it depends on the stand I will be hunting from. I think I want to hunt our new stand this year....which can be a long range affair with shots to possibly 400 yards.....but more likely 200 yards or so. This is over a very interesting power line affair with a tamarack swamp on the far...

I owned Stoney Point Products. I developed what is now called the Hornady Lock and Load OAL Gauge / modified cases / bullet comparator / headspace gauges / rimfire thickness gauges and the various brand of cleaning rod bore guides on the market today. Also made steady stix (rifle rest) and...

The products we made when I sold the biz were really well made. Some of the early versions were a bit sketchy as people took them apart and did not know how to re-assemble them. When we solved that and a few other minor issues the products were bullet proof and last for decades of use...
