    I'm fine on roundabouts, but this diagram has me wondering. What in the circle on the top right and why would someone do and extra circle?

    Weather was pretty good today. Spent the morning working the chipper , then removed the engine from the splitter . Tomorrow it is off to Harbor Freight to pick up a Predator 6.5 horse.

    YouTube research looks like it’s an easy swap and the engines are pretty good.

    Wisconsin has the most roundabouts of any state. I haven't seen one with a figure 8 though.

    Best decision ever was to boot the old Breaks & Scatters from the Didier log splitter and put the predator 6.5 on it. That was several years ago. It's excellent. It literally was bolt on.

    Horkn yes I feel confident it will work. Heck I had sixty bucks in replacement parts to try to get this LCT running. A Predator is 149.00. Pointless to keep trouble shooting

    “Years later” reviews are very positive.

    Gotta pay some bills this weekend so went in and checked my main account to make sure my checkbook was at lest close to right. Hmm, paycheck should be showing as a pending transaction. Oh well, maybe they are doing maintenance on the bank website so it isn't showiwng yet.

    I also have some deposited in a credit union. They usually deposit a day ahead. Hmmm, nothing.

    I was thinking that most likely either I forgot to sign my timecard or my boss forgot to approve my timecard. But, I got a a "your paycheck is coming" email on Saturday, so that isn't it. I'm pretty darn sure the company is good for the money LOL.

    It is fortunate that I am not living paycheck to paycheck so this little glitch isn't a hardship.

    Well, apparently everyone was behind in their reporting. Just checked and my main bank shows the transaction pending and my credit union shows that it was applied yesterday.

    Don’t think of it a figure 8; think of the other circle as reaching elevated bridge or going down for a tunnel

    I have only seen them in use with a elevation change

    they are building this here Diverging Diamond IMG_1927.png

    Looks like a cluster flock to me.
    They are building traffic circles like they are free here in Ohio...every time I go somewhere I haven't been in a while there are new ones...there are some intersections where they have made a big difference though...much less traffic backup, and accidents. Some people still don't know how to navigate them though...they treat them like a stop sign! :headbang:

    Looks like an excellent place to stay away from. Most folks are confused at a 4 way stop. How would they react to that bull?
