I agree Eric except too many people tend to put them all in the same basket, if you know what I mean. There are still some smart ones out there, thank God for that.
There's some out there, but that number is far fewer than there were in past generations. The good news is that there's enough younger generation kids out there that will make my social security paid for, unlike how it currently is.
Just a thought regarding a splitter, midwinter.. You had mentioned not having the means to tow it home I believe, but with all the offers of help from the good ol boys and gals here, I bet you could get somebody local to tow it home for you with minimal bribery. If I were somewhat less than a hundred miles away I'd be glad to help - but if you get desperate I'll work for homemade baked goods. I'm partial to pumpkin pie and brownies with peanut butter chips.
I'm so excited! Out of the blue, the splitter kid texted me that he could come today. I said yes, because although I have made some progress splitting, there's lots more, and next week it up in the 80's. On a separate note, I scrounged a couple of galv. panels at the dump, but what do I do about the holes?
Nice that the kid contacted you. Holes? Plug them with some hot glue, if need be. Keep it simple. Sent from my SM-T280 using Tapatalk
I would try a mylar tape and I think Gorilla or somebody makes a tape with some damm good adhesive on it or sand the metal and fiberglass/epoxy it or just don't worry about a couple of drips ? Buckets ?
He said he brings wood to the dump when he has too much of it. I said, bring it to my house, and he said he would!
Wink at them. I've never worried about the holes but if you are, get some of the cheap plastic roofing cement and plug them.
Nothing to worry about. A couple drips of water on the wood isn't enough to make a difference. And it will dry quick after the rain ends. (But if you're really worried about it, dab a little silicone caulk in the holes.)
That's the next project. After I get all the wood rearranged. I never got to trim the yew bushes last year, so there's that as well.
