There are several plausible explanations for everything you find in the world, the trick is letting people who like different explanations than your own believe whatever it is they wish to believe. I've only met a handful of people who were able to do that, and I suspect they are very rare. well, w...

Wood pillow blocks....... the mother of invention. Yup, those are sweet alright, gotta love the get it done attitude! :mrgreen: The machine shop guy's reaction doesn't surprise me at all. The guy didn't want to do the job, but didn't want to insult you either. Same thing happens when someone asks m...

Sounds like it from your description. Shipping will be as much as the plate and screws.

I just remember that Grizzly Adams mentioned a place in Magdalena that had a good one. Since we're driving through often at supper time, seems like a good option. I may have to go use the search feature and find the thread. Owl Bar is where I ate in San Antonio. It was ok, good burger but a bit more...

I did not know that, one of the guys I'm working with is a big fan of The Milagro Beanfield War, I'll tell him that. I had figured they used a town or set closer to Santa Fe like most of the others seem to do.

I kind of liked the book better, but both are worth the time to watch/read.

We're working out at the VLA and staying in Socorro. This is likely to continue into July - or October if one asks a born pessimist like myself :mrgreen: I did have lunch once in San Antonio. A bar on the NW corner of 380 and whatever heads down to the bird refuge. Great atmosphere, but food average...

92&94

What was the name of the place that serves a good green chile burger?

We've yet to exhaust dining options in Socorro, but I expect that is coming soon

92&94

Only because of the howling gale that is springtime in NM

Also, something to keep in mind is that a dog is a really good first line of defense. I knew a lady who actually had a full-grown LION as a pet (modified her two-car garage into a 'den' and had an enclosure outside and a barred-door to the house). She was at home ill when a trio of burglars with cr...

How big around is the tree? Small trees do not yeild good lumber, big ones do.

Any pretty wood you get out of it would be fine for pistol grips though.

A lot of the Claro walnut I've worked is softer than cherry. It may be more prone to splitting than that walnut though. Black walnut is noticeably harder than both. These days with glass bedding, splitting is probably a lot less of an issue. So in short, I would certainly use it, within reason. Pers...

I rarely like a movie that is based on a book I have read. Reading the book later is usually a sure way to make me lose any taste for the movie. The vast majority of people who have seen either movie have never read the book, kind of an odd requirement if you ask me. If the question is which is more...

I've had very good results with stuff actually handled by the USPS. Stuff I've ordered from Amazon or the like, for delivery to my PO Box, a very different story. A lot of vendors use Fedex Ground who has a deal with the USPS for delivery to PO Boxes. You can watch in Fedex tracking as your package ...

36. I got a humidifier and a dehumidifier for my birthday. I put them in the same room and let them battle it out.

92&94

Wow... I got a creaky back, but nothing to hold a candle to that! Advil and ice is where I'm at.

Hope it works, I've heard of that working before.

Hang in there and get well soon.

92&94

I will hazard a theory here, that each movie is more representative of the time in which it was made than of the time which both claim to represent :mrgreen: I like the older one simply for the scenes with the girl getting the better of the horse trader :mrgreen: I can't say as I require historical ...

I have a 1908 VH 20 gauge.

Dad got it cheap due to a cracked stock after gunsmith school and made a new stock from birdseye maple he fished out of a pulp bog in Maine. I used to post pictures of it on the web now and then, just to horrify the purists

92&94

Just wait till they all start wearing that google glass stuff. Look for new cases of brain tumors in these people wearing them in the next 10-15 years. With any luck most of them will get hit by passing buses before they can develop tumors :lol: :lol: :lol: I have to wonder how those kids in the ph...

The AR is a good kit to build, because normally a lot of parts are available, being newly made in the US. At the moment production is likely still way behind demand. There are a couple of good forums that deal with building, the best probably being weaponsguild.com (you have to register to view it)....

92&94

so much for my question :roll: well, I guess if you have a use for zinc bullets, you could make them out of pennies. Probably still illegal (destroying currency) if you worry about such things. I think copper would stick to your bullet mold, as it melts at a much higher temp than zinc and lead allo...

Remember those toy guns sold in drug stores and places that shot little plastic disks? Several years ago, a friend and I wanted to make a steel and aluminum version that would shoot pennies (oriented like a frisbee) - we were going to call it "the Lincoln Launcher"

Last time I bought a bucket of weights at the tire shop it was $20. I would guess it was less than 150# but I didn't weigh it. Best way to sell them is as double boxed medium flat rate boxes, 50# or so per box. Either ebay or the castboolits classifieds, do a bit of research and you can find what th...

That is true, I was in Tucson a couple weeks ago and was pleased to find large rifle primers. Limit was 500 per customer/day.... in 2008/2009 same shop had a limit also, but I don't remember them running out.

92&94

Its just what you're used to, nothing more. Don't know about magnums, never owned one. But practice a lot with a 30-06 or 8mm Mauser and in a few months it won't be any big deal.... just watch that thumb

I have a Rossi similar to CO Steve's, 'cept without the tang sight and in 44 mag. Real nice gun for the $$$

92&94

Very nice work! Curly maple?

I need to make a set for my vaquero, just can't decide on the wood

So why did somebody get banned for 7 days? Why didn't everybody just grin & bear it despite it being considered profane? Neither you nor I decide who gets banned, so as piller suggested, maybe the thing to do is hit the report post button and move on. Getting all hot and bothered about it simpl...

92&94

Well, the smart thing to do when you don't like someone's joke is to grit your teeth and move on to something else. Its a big scary world out there, and we are all going to find people with whom we disagree. Does it really do any harm to laugh off what you consider an insult?

92&94

I'm gonna steal that one!

One word of caution with oven cleaner and bleach - rinse very, very well in between. Oven cleaner is a strong base and should react with bleach in the same way as ammonia does - by liberating chlorine gas.

Stock looks great, I never would have guessed it would clean up so well.

92&94

I'd be all over that.... and I don't even shoot 44-40

92&94

I was just in Tucson for a couple days, got some large rifle primers and a pound of powder (I was really looking at guns of course

)

92&94

Sounds like the counter kid has been reading up on the internet! It must be true... he read it on some SWAT forum or another

92&94

Those are sweet rifles, I'd love to have one in 44 magnum (and an 1886 in 45-70 to go with it

)

I'm with Grizz, the notion that linux is hard to install is easily a decade old. You can download and burn a liveCD (or DVD) that allows you to try out the distribution without making permanent changes to your machine. There is an "install" icon on the desktop of the temporary linux system...

I live in AZ. I'll bust out BBQ and expect beach front property. I guess we have a few volcanoes that could theoretically cook off around here, but... meh. Yeah, highly unlikely, they been dead for millenia. They aren't the nasty kind either, those live over subduction zones like in the Pacific NW....

I used to fly fish a lot growing up in Maine, there was always a stream, pond, or bog within an easy walk for a kid. I still have all the gear, and all the tying kit, but rarely fish much any more. Usually a two hour drive to a fishing hole out here. We've got some streams at Mt. Graham, and a very ...

Happy birthday Hobie, thanks for keeping this a classy place.

I've had good luck selling on Gunbroker, never tried the others. If you do your homework looking at completed auctions, you should have a fair idea what an actual selling price will be. I sort the completed auctions by number of bids to weed out all the guys who start at top dollar and auto-relist, ...

I don't think anyone who has posted here would fault your friend's honesty, professionalism, or conduct. His customer was and is a jerk, idiot, and a whole bunch of other stuff I can't post here. We end up offering advice because your buddy sounds like a good guy who doesn't deserve customers like t...

Friend of mineused to live up your way... whenever we complain about winter down here, he drags out the old story about the Minnesota winter when everyone's septic tanks froze solid :mrgreen: I think I'll take the drought and wind down here any day :mrgreen: Heck, I'd move back to AZ in a minute if ...

92&94

Well, my personal exception is usually along the lines of "Feel free to think any darn fool thing you want, and I will do the same. If I ya speak the darn fool things you think, I'll probably stop listening" :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: So yeah, pretty much applies everywhere. I watch/lis...

I'm with panzercat and stretch, the thing to do is refuse work like this. Customer wants something stupid, they can find someone stupid enough to do it for them - no offense intended to your friend, but it is not always wise to do what the customer wants. On the little bit of woodwork I still do for...

I don't expect politicians to be able to sing, and similarly don't much care about singers' politics, provided they keep it out of their songs.

I used to have to travel in and out of Mexico a lot for work.... in some regards the Mexican authorities were way worse than anything you hear about with TSA, but on the other hand you always knew with them that it was likely a question of fishing for a bribe. I actually managed to never pay a bribe...

I am having no problem with PB. Works fine for me. I wonder why some are having such a problem - differing platforms? I run nothing but Apple. My experience with it is that it doesn't run well with some of my older OS's. I would assume that the problems are even worse with older Windows machines. I...

This is one of about 100 reasons I don't fly :mrgreen: The reaction of both airlines and unions to the rule change is another of those reasons. I'll drive any day, scenery is better too. Would one of the other 99 reasons be because you don't have a job that requires you to fly? I occasionally have ...
