Hard to go wrong with Staub enameled iron. Quality, still made in France.
A lot of Staub clay/crock/"stoneware" is now made in.... you guessed it.... China.

Vintage Staub crockery is still awesome.

Why is the pad shaped like that, by the door? glad you asked.
because somewhere in a past life, a previous owner ran a line underground to the well and bunkhouse. So... i had them pour it where IF i needed to dig the line up. I wouldn't have to break the pad up to do so

This one is made by Ban Tang, and is double edged. Rides on the belt for when a blade is needed.

I have a cheap average camera bipod which I was using for cheap range finder. I recently bought the vortex picatinny type of adopter. I won;'t be shooting any rounds larger than 308/6.5cm.
Since I am planning to use the cheap adopter and bipod, I need to find a perfect center of mass on a rifle. :D

Excellent choice. Quiet and efficient. We replaced two older coolers with Breezeair coolers 6 years ago. Best investment we ever made in the house. No messing around replacing and adjusting pads and washing the cooler reservoir several times a summer. And will save 70-90 trips up and down the roof over 10 years.

Last year I replaced the pads in one unit and will do the other next year-- after 8 years of service!

When we got ours in March I'd run them until my wife complained, "It's miserably cold in here!"

I think you'll like the Breezeair.

Since don’t know crap about scopes. I figured it’s about time to try and figure it out. It was suggested to look at this scope https://vortexoptics.com/vortex-strike-eagle-5-25x56-ffp.html?vortex_reticle=1500. It seams like a lot of bang for the buck.

Getting a good scope feels like a game changer. I picked up some Vortex with the same reticle (but the $300 version) and it was like a whole new world. I took down an antelope at 325 yards with it last year. Two years prior I completely whiffed at an antelope that was probably the same distance that shouldn't have even been a challenge. A decent scope and reticle is night and day.

Another bonus: price. I sold my Duractracs with 50% tread left for about what I paid for a brand new set of Falken Wildpeak A/T tires. They were quieter & rode SO much better too. to be fair, the Duractracs did well for the first 5,000 miles or so but they quickly went downhill after that from typical pavement driving. I really didn't own the truck for too long after I put the new tires on so I can't say how they lasted but reviews I read online said they lasted every bit as good as the Duractracs if not longer.

I agree that Duratracs are horrible tires. I?ve seen them on quite a few of our company vehicles and they wear funky and are really noisy and don?t seem to last as many miles as similar tires.

Getting to see lots of trucks with lots of different tires is nice because I have a good idea what to buy or not buy when it comes time for tires on my own vehicles.

I got a free set after some horse trading for my little Tundra and I don't have really any complaints. They are a little noisey but seem to be getting quieter (or I am getting used to them) as they wear. I rotate 5K with my oil change. If/when the oil patch picks back up, I will be looking at a set of these in 33x11.50R17

I used to work right down the road from them in CA. They had a small shop and I picked up some of their coffee and brewed it at work. It was pretty damn good.

Any roast type recommendations? Thanks.


If you're curious about the varieties of coffees listed on the bag: https://varieties.worldcoffeeresearch.org/varieties

I enjoy all types of coffee. One thing I am picky on is the roast types and additives.
I forgot which company but they put too much oil type of additive to roast on their coffee. Yuk.

I'm not aware of anyone that adds oil to the beans. The oils come from the beans. If you buy flavored coffee, that's a whole other ball game....and yuck. This is coming from someone that doesn't mind some Irish cream in my coffee on the weekend.

I'm also a fan of lighter roasts. Many dark roasts taste burned to me and the lighter roasts having a higher caffeine content is a bonus.

https://making-nice-coffee.com/oily-coffee-beans/

ETA: If I did like oily coffee beans, I'd have to clean my burr grinder much more often. Another weird thing I've noticed with the darker and more oily beans is that they seem to create more static and stick to the grind cup. I actually don't think they have more static, it's just that the oils allow the grinds to leverage that static and stick to things.

Boom goes the dynamite! I was beginning to wonder if I was the only one around these parts who liked awesome stuff. [ROFL1]

One of ours is that color too. It's amazing in person. Did you get a left-over P100DL or is that a brand new Performance model? They dropped the P100DL even though it's basically the same thing but with a fancy new name. Is it a Raven model? Damn that thing is cool!


So, how long until we find out who has the more bad ass Tesla, J or Jer?

I can squash all the debate right meow.... that one is more bad ass. That there is the fastest car Motor Trend has EVER tested from 0-60. Not the fastest EV, not the fastest sedan, nope. The fastest ever. Full stop. It was clocked at a mere 2.2 seconds from 0-60. My old, clapped out, out-dated excuse for an EV can "only" muster around a 3 second 0-60 time. I know, I know... it's slow. It beats my wife's car though as her's takes an coon's age to hit 60mph in about 4.5 seconds. Hopefully she never needs to rush my to the emergency room because I don't know how many hours it will take her at those speeds. [LOL]

It's got a lot of other nice improvements and it's crazy to sit in one that's even a year newer given all of the advancements they've made changing the assembly lines monthly for upgrades in many cases over the years. Kind of sets a new bar for other manufacturers who wait 4-8 years before adding any improvements to their cars.
That thing is dayum secksi though and if I had an unlimited budget I'd have one pretty similar. Instead, I have to make due with my clapped-out 5 year old used cars that I buy. [Beer]

Looks like the same ones we use. It's a winning solution to always have a fresh cup of coffee (and tea etc.) with practically the same per-cup cost as a traditional glass pot. These work well with them: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B072Q2F4X5/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It's a new performance ludicrous. Most people just know the P100D better, so that's what I said. In reality, it's the same car, so long as you have the Raven update on either (yes, mine is a Raven).

And yes, it's fast. I have a Ducati Panigale V4s, which is debatable the fastest bike all around. Up to about 60, this is even faster.

Not a Tesla thread. To answer your question, no exhaust on the Tesla ;). The Ducati is running a stock exhaust. Is fast enough as is.

I was poking fun at your giving of basic riding advice with no clue on my riding experience. I raced MRA and WERA as an expert for a number of years when I was a younger man. I'm well aware of how to use both brakes on the bike. Even got a set of extra wheels for the Duc to run some Pirelli Superbike SC-1 slicks and putz around the track during the nicer months of the year.

Again. Just poking fun. Nothing serious.

Funny you mention that... the new drive train that will be three motors will comprise the new Plaid edition vehicles. It's what will propel the all-new Roadster to 60mph from a standing stop in 1.9 seconds. There will be a Cybertruck option with Plaid drive train and even the Model S will get a Plaid edition. Elon is a big Spaceballs fan & there's lots of references to the movie within Tesla including the Not a Flame Thrower that they sold years ago to raise capitol.

First ATV. Needed something for hunting/scouting and maybe a little trail riding with a buddy. I really want a specific make/model but don't want to pay new prices.

Stumbled across this custom S&W 64-5 and just had to get it. It started life as a 4", barrel slab sided, cut and recrowned at 3", fiber front sight and a really nice action job. Hitting the range shortly for first rounds fired. It came with wood grips but I put on the Pachmayrs. Don't really enjoy magnums in K frames but .38spl is a whole different ballgame. Have quite a few Gold Dot .38spl +P for sd, lots of 130gr fmj to see how it does. Looking forward to the range time.

Whenever I talk about getting one the minions raz me about getting old and not being able to hang. Talking about a winch on quad just about makes their heads explode. Sport/racing/jumping is all they care about.

They were aghast when they saw I put a hitch to pull spray trailer on Mrs bo's old Sportrax.

Mostly ride quads these days due to bad knees.

I love riding my MX but no air or deep hard turns that I might have to plant a foot to pivot on. Pretty much leaves trail tours and quads. Suspension on my Blaster much easier on my knees, can ride harder.

I saw one from the same gunsmith built on a 64-3. Mine is considered a ?class b? by the smith, the gun is from 1995. The other one is definitely a higher grade finish though still brushed stainless like mine. I agree with a lot of the S&W guys that a 3? K frame is the ideal personal defense revolver.

There appears to be an inventory or rack number inscribed on the left grip frame. Unfortunately he didn’t know what dept it came from.

Heck yeah it's hooked up. I was planning on building a scaffold mount to support everything and was taking some measurements and noticed that those cat liter boxes were the right height. Also, my miter saw is in the attic and I don't want to get it out. It was easier to shim up the Tidy Cat with some loose mosiac tiles from my bathroom remodel a few years ago. They make this thing meant to hang in the window flush to the wall, but the brick apron isn't doing me any favors. Supposed to mount to a piece of wood, mounted to the wall, but eh, I don't wanna.
