I think @jar944 has one, or similar

I have a porter cable/castle tsm10 (license from castle by porter cable) as the 552 production pocket cutter. It's the older version of the tsm-12 currently available

I added a pneumatic clamp and foot pedal to mine

I've never used one of the new 110 machines. I will say the castle low angle pockets make a big difference in joint creep compared to kreg.

That's sweet right there!

The kids came back from tractor supply with an early fathers day present 👍🎉 Got it early because they didn't know where to hide it that I would eventually not see it. I have been wanting a flat griddle for outside and Tractor Supply had the price marked wrong but honored it anyways so it was a steal.

Eventually we are planning on expanding the outdoor kitchen which will get a big built in flat top and then this one will be easy to pack away in the RV (that we don't have yet) dream of someday.

Anyway...... I'm pretty excited. I'm gonna get a proper T and whatever what not so I can just hook it up to the house and not have to deal with little tanks.

I had to make a trip to the rental this morning for some little punch list items. I didn't get any pictures just for privacy reasons, but...

I had to install four new smoke detectors. They all got taken down a patched over during drywall repair. I guess you shouldn't say things like, remove and patch everything..... Me talking about screws and picture nails and easy anchors things like that, but the word everything got take literally I suppose 🤣. Oh well.

Also just purchased threw back on the few outlet covers that went missing during the process, fixed a "running" toilet. A little list of things of that nature.

Stopped to get an alignment on the truck but there was a 3 hour wait so made an appointment for Wednesday to just go back. The somewhat close places all up my way don't have racks that support lifted 3500 long beds. This place was recommended by 3 separate people/places that don't know each other so much be the place to go right. They do a lot a lifted, big tire, custom, etc etc etc. They did my buddies lifted dually. Anyways going back on Wednesday. I had the print outs on how to adjust it from the lift company, because OEM is no longer recommend and he saw the name on the paper and already knew. So seems like I'm on the right place.

If you have any close by, check TS. It was marked as on sale and supposedly not supposed to be. Dont know if that would be a location thing or a corporate thing 🤷

Used to trap the gophers in our swimming pool growing up.... Bleh. Then we got traps. My mom would plant chicken wire in the ground with her plants so gophers wouldn't eat them.

I'll gladly offer up either a big boy bottle of argon or one of my forklift propane tanks. Name your poison and I'll be there with bells on and video camera in hand :flamethro

Ohhhh you mean kind of like how I deal with weeds in areas that I don't want to spray chemicals on (where the dogs, and other animals go, close to fruit trees and things we eat, etc etc)

And if you have a skunk problem just substitute the peanut butter for a fresh raw egg still in the shell. If there’s a skunk around, in the AM it’ll be inside the live trap! Caught dozens that way when I was a Jr Chicken Rancher. Best part about a skunk is all it wants to do in the daylight is sleep, had to throw rocks at them to get them out of the trap during their relocation procedure.

Here you are providing safety and security for the bunnies while I'm trying to show mine a similar level of hospitality as you are showing squirrels!

Oh the normal garden variety gray peter cotton tail MF'rs......they get a pellet to the dome. They are out in the thousands right now!

Don't get me wrong, I love animals, but when they are a nuisance animal, game on. I really need to learn how to cook rabbit. Blackstone, soup ?!? 😁

I don't know if its the same but German Hasenpfeffer served in a local Ratskeller was a delicious comfort food for me in my work in Germany. That's a "hare" stewed with peppercorns and onions, so yummy. Local rabbits may be different.

If you want to have a little fun throwing high-ish velocity lead throwing...below are a couple of ones I'm using...

Left most image is a fairly standard size 7.9 grain .177 Crossman Premier Pellet
Middle is the bigger 10.3 grain JSB Diablo
Far right is the big boy Rabbit Magnum II....15.74 Gr

Bigger mass...especially that Magnum II allows me to back off the pressure/speed which makes it quieter


As for cooking rabbit....soup...stew....both taste great and super easy to clean. Not sure about your area, but up here we have cases of Rabbit Fever/tularemia so I was always told growing up we don't want to eat them until after the first hard freeze of the winter as that normally handled any that were ill.
