    Welding Project

    I finally got all the parts needed to build my bow press. Just need to pick up the steel. Any good welders in Bismarck/Mandan that are looking for a side project? I've got detailed plans and pictures, but don't have access to a welder or shop.

    Reinforce Garage Doors

    After a few 70-110 mph gusts, my 18ft midland garage door has started to bow. The door is only 2 years old and came with 3 t-struts installed from the factory. The 110mph gust from this past summer pushed the door in enough to make some small dimples on the exterior side. The more recent 70mph...

    Structure for late morning or early afternoon

    What structural features are you looking for during the late morning or early afternoon lulls when chasing walleye/perch? I found a few areas that look promising but want to see what everyone else does. The areas that I found are in 30+ feet with sunken islands on the edge of steep drops, and...

    Nishu Archery Leagues

    Who is all shooting in the leagues this year? I'm thinking about doing the Thursday night individual league. I've never done it before, but I need something to do during the week. The website says that it starts at 6:30, but what if a person can't get there until a little later? Will they still...

    Maceration for European Mounts

    I looking to try a new method for doing European mounts. Has anyone tried maceration? I know the smell is terrible, so doing it in the garage is out of the question. I'd like to do it outside, but with the colder temps it may be difficult to keep the water heated up between 80-100 degrees. Any...

    Moose Hide

    Mom was lucky enough to tag out this weekend on a nice cow in M9. We've been debating on what to do with the hide. Anyone ever had one tanned? If so, any idea what the cost was? Shipping alone for a 100lb+ package certainly won't be cheap. I think they would make a nice, warm pair of gloves.

    Operating Drones for Profit

    Anyone on here licensed to operate a drone commercially? I need to get certified to take pictures for real estate purposes, and am curious what others did to prepare for the exam? Can you recommend any good resources that will prepare someone for each part of the 60 question exam?

    Concrete Edging

    Does anyone have any recommendations on concrete edging companies in the Bismarck/Mandan area? I need about 250ft of edging around my house. Not looking for anything fancy, just the regular slant style curb and color. For those of you that have had it done, how's it holding up? Did you opt for...

    Happy Friday!

    Just thought I'd share these for anyone shopping at Lowes. Each code is good for $20 off purchases of $100 or more. If you have large orders that can be split into multiple orders you can use as many codes as you like. These codes only work online. Some may or may not work so just keep trying...

    Compost vs. Screen Black Dirt for Garden

    I'm building 4 raised planters to get my garden started. They will be 4x8x2 and each will hold approximately 64 cubic feet of soil. I can get some good screened black dirt that's mixed with manure for about $26 a yard. I'd likely have to wait until load restrictions are lifted and just get a...

    Basement Plumbing

    I'm preparing to finish off the basement bathroom rough-in, and was planning on running viega pex. The viega press tool sells for roughly $175 and I really don't want to buy one for one-time use. Do you guys have any other suggestions on which style of pex to run (crimp vs. press vs...

    Pork Butts

    Making another batch of sausage in the next couple of weeks, and I'm trying to find a decent price on some pork butts. Everything that I've seen around Mandan/Bismarck lately has been anywhere from 1.39-1.89/lb. Has anyone come across the 0.99/lb specials? Will need 60-80lbs.

    Truck Tire Chains

    Is there anyone in the Bismarck/Mandan area that stocks a decent selection of truck/suv tire chains? I've got a set that I purchased through Orielly Auto a few years ago, but I'd like to get a decent set of V-Bar chains for the rear. I'll need them this weekend for a last minute trip back to MT...

    Subbase for Concrete Patio

    I'm planning on doing a stamped patio in my backyard, and can't figure out the right material to use for the subbase. The existing soil is a clay/sand mix and will provide an excellent base for the concrete, but I'll need to bring in some fill to get a few areas up closer to grade. Once the fill...

    Plastic Shrink Wrap

    I'm looking for a large amount of plastic shrink wrap to make a few archery targets for my backyard. I figured I'd check here before contacting the local warehouses and boat dealers. Any type of plastic pallet wrap or shrink wrap for winterizing boats will work. If you have access to this stuff...

    Seeding Large Areas of Grass

    With spring right around the corner, I need to start getting ready to seed our lawn. I won't have the $$$ to do all the landscaping this year, but I need to get some grass growing so the kid and dog can play outside this summer. Once the top soil is brought in and leveled, what is the best way...

    Drywall Bismarck/Mandan Area

    I was planning on doing the drywall in my basement, but with so many irons in the fire already, I decided to look into hiring it out. Has anyone in the Bismarck/Mandan area used anyone that is reasonably priced? I'd like to find some Mexicans willing to do a side job for cash, but without a Home...

    Unit 30 Turkeys

    Anyone know of any landowners in Unit 30 (Morton County) that want some birds thinned out? My brother-in-law and I each have a few tags, and are planning on heading out tomorrow afternoon. I have a few areas that have produced birds in the past, but with all this snow, those areas are...

    Appliance Installation/Repair

    Any appliance technicians in here? Recently purchased a new gas range, and made the necessary modifications to convert from NG to LP/propane. Had an installer come out to hook it up, and everything went well until I turned the oven on. I can't seem to get the nice short blueish flame in the...
