What's up today (bullchiting) thread.

Lol. When he runs out of firewood to process.

 

Were you daydreaming about running him over since he wouldn't get his dumb azz out of the way?

 

A little.

 

Afternoons or late nights.

 

Got through all my used chains on the grinder Monday, today I finished up filing all the rakers/depth gauges. 4 28’s, 2 24’s, 2 42’s and a 20”. Hands feeling it too. Can’t imagine hand filing all these.


Just got off the phone w/ Madsens. $30 plus shipping for one grinding wheel.

 

Those look great. Nice job, my friend. I know your hands do feel it. I can do just a few and start getting some serious cramps

 

Nice house. But the 18x24 garage should have the door on the perpendicular wall. What are you going to fit in 18'? An accent???

 

Motorcycles, tractors and/or lawn equipment ?
A golf cart or a Smart car ?

 

An 18' deep garage will fit a lot of vehicles. Heck a 4runner will fit. Asking with most cats, CC except the land yachts and no full size truck. Mid sized trucks will still fit though. Not much fun left though. Kinda like how I can fit my f150 in my 60's built garage. Just barely, and only one one side that's just a tad deeper.

Now, better we bought this house, we rented a victorian carriage house that was behind the main victorian house. That garage could fit a mini cooper, at most. So, my motorcycle went in there.

 

Have a Wonderful Birthday amateur cutter !

 

True. But I don't have any of that stuff, except a hand mower. Need to make a floor in my crawl space to put that and a wheelbarrow.

I guess it worked for whoever built it. If I bought it, that door would quickly be moved.

oh, it'd fit my car no trouble, that's why I said an accent. And probably what I'll be replacing her with too. Especially with gas gone back up and the amount of driving I do, a small car is nice at the pumps, but I'm sick of driving Dinkies now so I'm going to try to find the most fuel efficient small SUV or small truck I can, and if it's a bit thirstier than the car, I'll just have to manage to keep it fed.

You'd probably get most rcsb full size trucks in there too, even if it's tight. But some of the crew cab 6' bed mid sizes look pretty long, especially the tacomas. Not sure exactly how long.


My 12×22 garage more or less just fits the full size truck I'm building from scratch, rclb, with enough room left to walk around. I get a plow on her and I got a funny feeling I'll be climbing over the truck to get to the other side.

 

The oil furnace at mom's house is being replaced with an electric furnace today. Apparently (according to neighbors who've already been switched) they're expensive to run. The electricians who switched out the breaker panel even said they should be installing heat pumps instead. Now oil is probably even more expensive at this point, difference being that the oil was included up to a limit, which she never exceeded. Now, the residents are on their own for the heat bill, which of course will just be part of the power bill.

at least one of the oil companies' selling points, wrote on the side of the truck and all, is, or was, that oil heat is cheaper. I don't think that's true now.

 

Happy birthday amateur cutter. Any plans

 

Packing to go north for deer camp.

 

If home heating oil is $5.50 a gallon, then electricity has to be less than 16¢ a kWh or HHO is still cheaper. I can run my small HHO boiler with a rather small generator if the power goes out. Electric here for me is 31¢ / kWh but there is a home heating discount. I would have to go to Eversource's website and look up the rate.

 

That's expensive electricity. My rate is .0546 per KWh but the catch is I have fees that start me at 60 dollars a month whether I use any electric or not.

 

kind of ironic that oil is so expensive especially in your province. Aren't you one of our main oil producing provinces outside of Alberta?

 

Almost all oil and refined products are sold at market rates You can get in on the action by buying futures, ETFs, oil company stocks or options. Technically you could buy a physical barrel of oil, but moving, insuring and storing it costs an arm and a leg.

 

Happy birthday amateur cutter and good luck!
