    Cabinet guys!… 35mm cabinet hinges… bore before finish or after

    Replacing all my kitchen cabinets. Already Built and installed all the carcasses. I’m using these 35 mm hinges to mount the new doors which are 3/4” shaker style solid wood stiles with 1/4” center panels. Mounting on solid alder 3/4” inch face frames. I have a 35 mm boring jig, so the job...

    Taco is a sandwhich

    Click on the link. It’s settled. I think the point is that now, a taco or burrito is legally a sandwich. There is case law. So those who deny the sandwichhood of a taco or burrito have been legally proven wrong. Ducking behind my tomato shield now! BTW a tomato is still a fruit. Even if it...

    Would have been 17 Sunday

    I am so sorry for your loss. And for the dark journey that you have been through. You sound like the kind of guy who may be able to find the positives, the rays of light in the story. That is what I wish for you. You are not a failure. The way you and your wife and family handled this is not...

    How important are rain pants

    Depends on your tolerance for hypothermia. Joking. in the mountains where I hunt in Nevada, a sunny, 65° day can turn to crap in a half hour. I never ever leave camp without rain pants and rain jacket. Really good ones. If you’ve tried yours out, and they work in the rain, by all means use...

    Weed Whackers

    My whole kit is EGO. Mower, blower, weed wacker, chainsaw. Work well around the house but I have a small yard, probably 2000 sq feet.. I’ve had them for 5-6 years and they seem to be holding up fine. Batteries are 56 volts and come in a large and small size. Lots of power. Blower will...

    Can company keep my last bonus?

    This shouldn’t depend on what state you are in. Withholding due compensation is a violation of federal labor laws. Here’s what I would do. 1) ask in writing for the aforementioned signed contract which shows in writing what you agreed to. Do everything in writing from now on. 2) If no...

    Ballistically Challenged Newbie Looking a new purchase

    The 7-08 is definitely a more pleasant rifle to shoot. I have a Tikka with a 1-10 twist, and it’s a tack driver with 150s. Plenty of energy out to 400 yards, and the ballistics are comparable to a 30-06 spitting 165 GR pills. The 270 will get you slightly better ballistics, but you’ll pay for...

    Forget your rangefinder?

    Are you saying your wife has resting sarcasm face?

    Forget your rangefinder?

    Also ….back when nobody had rangefinders except the military… we used the reticle in our SFP scopes. The length of your quarry’s legs or depth of chest are known quantities within a few inches. Figure out how these match up to your hashes slashes points or dots ant various yardages and you...

    Forget your rangefinder?

    I dunno. This is pretty awesome.

    Forget your rangefinder?

    We really have to invent or adopt by consensus a sarcasm emoji. For a second I was under the impression that he really thought that a .557 super ultra nitro mag +++ actually possessed the same trajectory as a laser beam.

    Over Priced Things That Shouldn't Be?

    Shot ammo is made by dropping molten lead (or whatever material) from a tower into coolant, then scraping up the results and stuffing it in a plastic case. The precision required for even very cheap rifle ammo is a lot higher. Gonna cost ya. The cost of rifle ammo is one reason why I reload.

    Over Priced Things That Shouldn't Be?

    DDowning nailed it in post #11. Almost all the time the cheaper stuff is just that, poorly made using poor materials. Sometimes …. Rarely… you’ll find something that’s cheap and good. The other trend I’ve noticed, if a manufacturer makes a run of 70000 widgets in purple size A, they will...

    Did it make the jump?

    I think every one int the western US should stop harvesting deer and elk immediately. Especially in NV. I will take one for the team and continue to hunt NV and we can all see if anything happens to me. (Besides regularly filling tags with big ol’ muleys…. ) I would be willing to do the same...

    Masculinity and Caliber Choice

    My only comment about the masculinity of any caliber is this. If your masculinity depends on the gun you shoot and the vehicle you drive… you’re pretty insecure about it in the first place. Real masculinity is loyalty and service …. being a loving and present father and husband, bringing...

    Masculinity and Caliber Choice

    No… but I have eaten the entire butt end of a quiche. I generally find it unnecessary to shoot them, as they are slow and docile. Don’t shoot em, just sneak up behind them, grab and eat.

    Masculinity and Caliber Choice

    Let’s talk about quiche some more. It’s more interesting cuz it has bacon.
