Today and tomorrow I am working the Grainger county tomato festival for one of my hospitals. Its hot and humid in mid July and we sponsor a cooling tent and give out waters and tote bags for all the festival goers. We partner with the county EMS and assist them with taking care of folks who get...

I kept all the reloading equipment. I got 2 8 ft truck bed loads of equipment and supplies for 500 dollars. Even giving away the dart board I came out ahead. I had enough brass, primers, bullets and primers to load 1000 rds of 9mm day one. Still working thru it all to load out all the brass...

Yep. It got in my head for sure. Then I felt bad because it was actually something I didnt want to get rid of, but at least it was getting put to use.

Tonight I circled back to my radio project since I had a bit of spare time. I used a glue stick and glued a sheet of paper to the starboard. I found there was a foam gasket on the head unit so I removed it and used it to make the template. I drilled some holes in each corner and then used my...

I gave away a nice dartboard that came with a truckload of reloading equipment. At the time I didnt have a place to set it up. I gave it to a lady I worked with after hearing she liked to play darts. Gave her all the darts that were with it too. She came back and told me how much each set was...

Thanks guys! Just trying to make some more space with the growing shop equipment. @madison069 @OutlawDrifter yall got me on another tool I didnt know I needed. Brake line clamps, the one fluid I absolutely cant stand getting on my floor. Last night my buddy who owns the awesome cabin we start...

I did drip irrigation for my trees when they were all new. Helped get them established. I had bought distressed trees and between watering, holly tone and mulch they came out pretty well.

Here was last nights quick space saving build out. I needed to get my bike rack off the floor, so I picked up a 2 in to 1 1/4 receiver adapter from HF, and assembled it to a 2x8 with that secured to the bottom of the loft, I added the rack to it One more thing up off the ground, and a bit more...

Looks good Zim!

Just went back to see what you were talking bout. I have a set of Mac clamps made for brake hoses, but I really like that solution. Off to the jungle to harvest a set of those. And just like that, GJ claims another victim.

After removing the kids bike rack to make space for a pressure washer station, I needed some better storage for their bikes. Adding an engine hoist, ac maching and transjack to the shop aresenal this year have taken up a lot of extra floor space, a massively bigger boat, as well as having my...

No issues for me, but shooting may be a concern movong forward now that I have glasses again.

Boat ramps are probably my real world use case of 4wd. Theres a steep ramp I have not used in several years due to my trucks lack of 4wd and 5k plus lbs of boat and trailer behind it. Typically it just means I have to use the ramps where theres more traffic which isnt the worst thing just more...

In my experience, 4wd has gotten me into a few really bad situations, one where I nearly rolled my Jeep Cherokee in the snow. With a 2wd I am very selective about how I come at obstacles, and luckily having a diesel I have some grunt to help move all the mass of this giant 2wd truck. My current...

I had Lasik in 2006, 2 days after my procedure we went by boat to a huge fireworks show in downtown Knoxville. I got a tiny piece of plastic in my eye from a firework. Just minor irritation but I had no idea if something had gone wrong with my eye. Went back to eye surgeon, he dyed my eye with...

Sunday morning I was about to head to my mens group and decided to ride the ebike since its just 2 miles or so to the coffee shop we meet at. Ride over was uneventful until some raindrops started falling. It rained while we met, but afterwards was pretty dry. As I left I was cruising next to a...

Nice rides! Im shopping a cooler style 12v fridge/ freezer setup for the truck camper when it arrives. I have a Jackery 1000 to run it off of as well as shore power if available. Good to hear the Dometic did well, its on the list, but might be out of the price range.

Quick project for tonight was to install my new headlights here you can see the old sealed beams in my base model Ford. I picked up a set of LED sealed beam replacements a couple of weeks ago and have been waiting for the pontoon project to finish up so I could install them. Quick and painless...

I have one I built for my planer. The opposite side had a a 6x48 belt sander on it. I have not flipped it over to use the planer in years.
