That's always the way I've done it. I generally wait until they are fully feathered out. Couldn't give you an exact time becuase it seems to vary...
It has worked well for me but I found the trick is to fill the tire pressure more than you want it. For example 35psi normal 45 psi after slime. I...
A neighbor I had previously did the expanding foam on his garden tractor. It was a old Deere that weighed a ton and had wheel weights. It worked...
Ooh man, I certainly could put it to good use. On the other hand, I don't really need it. It sure would make for an indestructable wedge! I put a...
I know my small farm (40 acres) would basically raise only wildlife. It quit being in production sometime in the late 50's so there has been a lot...
Really nice work. The other good thing about your shed is low cost by using the poles. Building a shed with all new materials is hard to justify....

Another thing that has been a good learning process for me is finding the best combination of settings for what I'm doing. I have also been trying...
The next two posts are the bad and the good. I wasn't pleased with how the welds appeared on the vertical left. This is a case of will hold and...
Here is the back side of the anchor point. I posted this to show the heat signature, or heat lines from the welding. They appear as the blue-gray...
Here is the anchor point for the cylinder all welded up. You may have caught my mistake. In the first picture I posted of this area I had the hole...
Here is the wear plate welded down. Under normal circumstances those welds should be wide enough to touch the top edge of the plate. These are...
I'm sorry for all the posts. Between the ipad and photobucket I'm ready to scream! Here is our shop. One of the best benefits of my job is...
Man, that would exciting! In both good and bad ways. That's what I always try to tell my kids, that there are so many different types of jobs in...
