    Making some face frames for a kitchen cabinet job. Its a good size job and it will keep me going for a while. The bandsaw is a Delta 14 inch. I have had it since 95.

    You kill it right before you eat it. Some just drop it in the boiling water. That's how I always do it.

    Thanks. 1/2 frozen already. Ugg wish he'd take a knife to him of knock him in the head like a big fish. Yes I've culled aq fry fish and helped along old or sick aq fish with ice water but omg this thing just keeps moving.

    Not sure what happened, I fished and hunted along with father and husband but somewhere along the line the death part deterred me. Yep, eat meat and poultry etc. from the store now but animals, um, no good reason. Well, the Terri Schaivo thing might have influenced me..... :picard:

    A much needed 4 day break from the grid iron.... made 9 pounds of summer sausage last night... gonna go on the smoker later this morning, and will put some cheese on the other smoker. Then I got a pipe to unclog... Thought it was just my breather under my sink, but took it off this morning and nope its not that. Still back up and slow drain, will have to get the snake out.

    Our master bath vanity has a drain that needs to be cleaned out at least once every 1 1/2 years. Kinda a pain, I wish the plumber had set it up with a little more pitch......but I've done it enough times now. Good luck!

    Saturday's are generally maintenance day but next week is our annual week long maintenance shutdown so I'm gonna go get caught up on the hauling today . Lil woman is gonna ride with and demanded I take her to breakfast. She's a trooper wanting to be seen going to breakfast with a garbage man in a Rolloff ! Time to reflect on the year and regroup. It's been one wild year and big things in the works. Last Monday was the first day I've had off since the beginning of March. Our slow season starts now . Going to enjoy some down time with the kids and catch up on some office work the next 10 days. Looking forward to 19 after a much needed break!

    Same here...had it working, but now real slow again...need to get to it before it clogs totally again...that's fun to open things up when the sink is laying full of water! :hair:
    It goes into the wall and makes a hard 90* turn down...I need to use my small rotary snake on it, couldn't find it last time, but it has been located now ( was hiding in plain sight!) so now its on!

    Finally getting my caffeine in me. o_O Ran out at the house.:faint:


    Today will consist of:

    Bringing firewood in.
    Cleaning boiler.
    Cleaning two fish tank filters and glass.
    Installing some more lights in the barn.
    (Those outlets are already wired so I just need to hang them and plug them in.)
    Maybe doing some trail work.
    Getting a large bonfire lit and feeding that. (May have a cold beer or two around it after dark.)

    Can't like that. Do you think you may need to rent a big boy snake?

    If it was Christmas day, then I could post the "Cousin Eddie , RV emptying" pic. Lol
