    DIY Tanning

    My daughter did her 2019 whitetail doe for a 4H project. @Northpark has the same process we used, but she didn't turn the eyes, lips, nose, ears. Spend time fleshing, then spend some more. She tried the pressure washer method, and while it worked, it was a giant mess. We'll use a fleshing...

    Fuel can Storage Options?

    I use standard Jerry Cans and a "super siphon" for transferring to truck/ATV/SXS/mower (anything with a decent size tank). I like the metal cans more I guess and never have a fume problem when storing. The super siphon will move the 5 gallons in under a minute with the can elevated on the side...

    Tikka T3X Stock Help

    I was able to fix my issue, sort of. Sorry no pics, I just did it after not finding an insert I needed locally. I did locate some "wood inserts" at my local Ace, but they were either too large, or too close to too small to engage the stock appropriately and would have taken epoxy to work...

    Tikka T3X Stock Help

    Thank you. Appears I’m not alone. Tape or a screw from the junk drawer it is. There’s a few take offs on eBay but I’d rather just save for a better stock down the road

    Tikka T3X Stock Help

    I have a new to me T3x lite stainless (bought second hand but new) I went to change out the grip today to the more vertical style and either I’m a ham fisted moron or it was this way when I got it, but, the brass insert in the stock backed out after about three turns of the screw. The screw and...

    2021 Gardens

    We're a mothers day planting family too. generally all the flowers and garden stuff goes in that day. We're busy rending asparagus right now after covering it at night for a few days last week. This is our second year with it, so no major harvest and we only put in 12 crowns last year...

    Eat my Boxershorts

    Another Duluth fan here - buck naked or "armachillo". wait for them to be on sale. I think the lowest is $14.50/pr for buck naked a couple times a year, but $16.50/pr happens often

Sundowner so its all aluminum. a steel trailer will go up from there. figure another 1000 to 1100 per horse, and all the stuff that ends up in the tack room, and feed in the bed of the truck, and your well...

    Metal Buildings

    We have an Astro barn. Survived with both end doors open in 90MPH winds that destroyed the roof on our detached garage and a few other things. Morton, Cleary, Lester, Astro - they all build a similar pole barn structure, each company with their own tweaks and related marketing. Not sure if...

    What do you do with your pictures?

    I try to get a few for each hunt into a frame along with any other mementos (seems to be spent brass for us) and display them close to the euro's or mounts around the house. sort of like small collages of three to five pics. I also print a photo of each animal and stick in in a thin magnetic...

    Time for a member re-introduction! Where are you from+a fun fact about yourself.

    Crete, NE (SW of Lincoln) fun fact - I rebuilt the engine in my 60 year old JD 4010 in the dirt floor lean-too of our horse barn with one outlet and a few lights. Had help (and YouTube) a few times with the heavy stuff but did 99% of the work myself.

    Kimber compact 1911 in condition 1, leather holster (IWB or OWB depends) by Bullard, reload in left pocket. Sometimes I'll carry a full size 1911 to change it up.

    Who did you meet hunting this year?

    I met a group of good ol' boys from Mississippi while hunting near the sandhills of Nebraska. Had breakfast with them daily at the hotel. They were on their annual deer hunting excursion hitting public lands and some private al across the plains. Had some decent deer from Kansas and were...
