    Skeeters

    We have a bird feeder and bird houses scattered around the yard and no skeeters.

    Slingshot rifle

    He does, and he has done his homework for building. I'm at 45 yards shooting @ a small bore ram silhouette and can ring it 5 out of 5 with 3/8 steel and a makeshift build without a scope. Moving out a few feet every day. These things are a real deal . .

    Fryer oil

    One guy told me he used outdated sweet rolls and stuff from bakeries.

    Garden!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    The way I get it too . I did it in stages to see what works and what doesn't. I forgot to mention that I put up motion detecting lights on the fence posts and CD disks and orange tape/flags at first but 3 days later they adapted to that. Then the 12 volt coil and I think they felt...

    Garden!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    There are a few different designs from a few different University studies but mine is two parallel fences, the outer fence is single wire and inner fence has 2 wires I forget the wire heights but it's all on the internet. The First deer track I see in the garden I'm smearing peanut butter...

    Garden!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Same here and the deer didn't eat the tops off them and they were small enough that the hail didn't club them to death so they might be the best tomato plants we have this year. Update on the 3-D fence experiment. It seems to be doing the trick so far. At first I didn't have a...

    Garden!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    The grow bags have been producing cucumbers and salads and the raspberries are just loaded . The few ripe ones so far are sweet and melt in my mouth. Lots of hail and deer damage in the main garden but it's bouncing back, I think we will make it through another winter one way or another.

    Slingshot rifle

    That was neat svn and exactly why I decided these aint toys for little boys. With 3/8 steel would be akin to a 22 rifle disguised as a rubber band toy.

    Slingshot rifle

    A while back someone on here mentioned they were building a LRB slingshot and was wondering how it's working ? At the same time I was building a slingshot rifle and I was going to get my oldest two grandsons building some when they were here but those things are too wicked for 8 and 9 year...

    Grilling mats

    Amazon has them, I pondered on getting a ridged one but went with the sheets instead.

    Grilling mats

    I ordered some for the 4th and used them a lot. They sure work good, I wish I had known about these earlier.

    Garden!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Beans are about the only thing they didn't ruin or eat. If it's not to late I might gamble on beets, peas and radish though. And a row of lesson sunflowers under the wires of my new electric fencer.

    Garden!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Has anyone planted this late in the year ? what plants can you seed this late ? The deer cleaned out the beets, peas and most of the carrots too but I finally have them fenced out. mmm venison is gonna taste extra good this year..

    Elk Deterrent?

    When I was just a little guy our playful pup had a habit of scratching on the aluminum screen door until Dad hooked the electric fencer up to it . A couple scratches and yelps later I was crying and Dad was laughing and Pal was broken of that habit. Then he got run over by the grain truck.

    Elk Deterrent?

    I put a 3-D fence around the garden and was surprised that it's working, so far anyway. a few studies reported that it works for deer and elk . So far it's kept the deer out without an electric fencer but will come up with a fencer soon and get it hooked up. This was an article I just...

    CORPS must pay landowners

    My guess is the COE alone signed off on the blueprints. I don't think states are legally bound to an opinion even if they are listed as a reference in the manual. I could be wrong though.

    Property Tax Petition

    You are reading it right. Watch them spend big money to buy some more TV airtime so they can boast more about this big homestead tax credit that is so good for retired folks.

    Montana Train Derailment

    I wonder how old the bridge and columns are ? I realize there must be a ton of iron in that column but I can imagine water penetrating and freezing and fracturing ahead of itself year after year once enough water is deep enough theres more than enough force from the freeze to split the column...

    Property Tax Petition

    Don't take me wrong , I'm not complaining, but I wonder why the cap for 100% reduction was set at 40K ? I guess the line had to be drawn somewhere but almost every married and retired couple on SS makes over 40K. They dodged the big bullet on that one. Include income from dependents ...
