Pellet heads!! What's up today?

Yup
Thats how it works
The QUAD in the appt is the only heat down there....
Just glad to be able to rob parts off of our stove to gittergoin.

Just popped in when I went to feed the horses....Stove working fine.....

Just a bad Thermocouple....

2 new ones coming....be here in a few days

 

I fricken LOVE corned beef hash....love making my own with the leftovers from SPD

 

Probably wrong, but I thought you paid someone to remove that when you had the Explorer towed?

 

I've got a canvass garage too for the bike. It's 12X14 and has a pitched roof. I have to remember to go out when the snow is over 6 inches and push up on the roof from the inside. I learned the hard way the first year I had it. bent one of the rafter tubes. I welded a piece of angle iron to it and it's been fine but I do have to keep an eye on it. Oh, and don't open the front during a wind storm or at least one that is blowing towards the flap. Learned that lesson the first year too. Pulled the two front stakes right outta the ground and stood the shed on on the back wall!

I'm selling my motorhome this Spring and will use some of the proceeds to buy a bigger shed. Workshop and garage for the toys. I'll do a free to good home for the old canvas shed

 

I paid someone to lift the ridge enough to get the pole out of the windshield so I could back the Explorer out. The structure was frozen in and it wasn't going anywhere.

Well, in my case, I learned I had to keep the door flaps rolled up so the wind would go thru. Even with 6 cable anchors shot into the ground a couple of feet, that sucker got lifted over the rebar behind the frame, and moved the structure back 12-18" from the wind that is funneled down the street.

Things didn't go quite according to plan, but it is close.
Meeting of the minds






It all went well until they were to the point of trying to move the iceberg. Most of that is from the December snow. It should melt quickly now that the afternoon sun can get to both it and the tarp surrounding it.


The guy lives right down the street and goes by all the time, so when the ice is more manageable, he'll take the tarp - that thing is solid, even after all its gone thru there is only one tiny hole

I'll move those pellets into the house today. Was glad I had placed the pallet on top as that is the only thing that kept poles from going thru a layer or two.

 

Any plans on replacing the tent garage???

A tuff shed maybe???

 

I wish I had the space for one. I picked up my first bike this winter, just got it running. It currently lives under a tarp.

 

Going with a permanent structure that I'll be paying taxes on (tent garages aren't permanent so no taxes). Hoping the ground thaws early this year and they can pour the pad in a month or so, but I don't have a timeline yet.

 

Costing you a few bucks but I think you’ll be happier in the end...

 

More secure against pellet pigs, too.

 

Good deal.

Even having to pay a bit of taxes (Sucks) can be better than having ma nature flatten your tent every year......

Our friend in town lost her tent garage twice this season...first time to the wind in September and the ice in February.....

Wind lifted it up and moved it to the neighbors back yard with small damage....easily repaired.

The ice flattened it and destroyed the frame and ripped the cover in several places.

You will like the permanent building a lot more..

Sleep well at night knowing your shed will be OK

 

Yeah, they aren't cheap.

I was stirring a replacement around in my mind last fall, but thought the tent would be good for at least another winter. Also, need to replace my metal shed as I think there are 2 screws remaining and habit holding that thing together. Amazing how that cheap little HD thing, that has to be 20 years old and took a road trip as it was moved from my previous house (and used to be where the tent garage was) has managed to stay standing up. Anyway, the new structure will replace both of them.

 

I am another hash afficionado! Send the recipe here as well!

 

Got #2 yesterday...
Piece of cake.
I know some have a bad day after, but the 8 of us in my family,
had NO issues at all.. Just a small awareness that you got a shot..
Very small...
We got the Phizzy...
