I'm guessing the above is happening. Just tie to the bend of the hook. I've never had a problem with that.

20 some years ago I loaned a Gott cooler to a friend. Nice cooler, kept stuff cold through more than a week archery hunting in September. The friend let the lid slam back against the ridiculously weak hinges, ending said hinges usefulness. From that day on I bought the rigid type...

Still on simms prior to the sellout. Before that I had Redington, which were a complete disappointment, delaminated extensively. Next pair will probably be grundens.

I saw a guy in Alaska use this: https://www.dexpan.com/pages/how-to-use-dexpan-break-concrete-rocks-easily It works.

I wonder if you had a comprehensive policy, if it would be covered under that. Damage while moving. We usually get that with a 1000 deductible, but 10k would help.

I didn't know all the names of the grips either, and in my research there was a guy talking about how tennis elbow could be averted with big handed folks (I am one of those too) by having larger grips (on tennis rackets) to fit. Makes me wonder if my chronic tennis elbow could have been...

I had a 12 foot ted Williams Jon boat when I was a kid. It was amazingly light. Wish I still had it. A machinist might be able to fabricate something pretty cheap. I like the idea of delrin bushings that you can replace. That would cure the squeaky oarlock syndrome.

Ah sorry for the misunderstanding. Maybe something like these- https://a.co/d/0bvxhBoo

You could also get oarlocks that stay on the oars, so when you put them away the oarlocks aren’t in contact with the boat. The corrosion that happens when you are actually using the boat would probably take a lifetime to be noticeable.

Maybe just lubricate with dielectric grease? If electrons can't flow there won't be galvanic corrosion.

I like them to float, in case they come off. I like them easy to put on and secure so they don’t come off. The best for propulsion I have used were made for diving, these can be had floating but none of them are very easy to put on, and you can’t wear wading boots in them. Some say the force...

In 1977 they had one of these on display at the OSU quad. It was hooked up to a water supply and about 8 feet long. Cold water in extremely hot water out the other end. I stood right next to it, did not feel dangerous at all. The light is focused on the pipe. You wouldn't want to put your...

Nippon has only owned the place since 2016, when Weyerhaeuser got rid of it, I suspect to put some distance between themselves and this type of thing. I worked in there taking care of fire systems, and I worked in the other mills on the lower Columbia. They (weyco) did not compare well to...

I've been waiting 11/2 years for a tube.

I had it at our previous home. When we bought this house, we were going back and forth and I left it working until it inexplicably quit connecting to the router. The poor customer service then came into view. I was asked to restart it repeatedly, and do other things that would require the...

Simms has some ridiculously expensive nippers with a magnetic thingy to help with threading. Then you have to be able to see to tie a knot. I have a fly box that I'm not sure if it is made anymore that has a bunch of wire threaders in it that you can pre load in good light at home. It works...

A lot of whining about not getting the government to subsidize their business the way they want. Take out all the fences and reestablish the bison and antelope herds. We can all go get our protein without the middleman. We raised cattle on our own land, providing feed and protection ourselves...

The forest ecosystems that filtered and cooled the waters, and my twenty year old knees so I can walk about in them.

I think six maybe five years ago I saw tracks of an adult wolf and a pup near three creeks lake south of Sisters. They are definitely there.

West of Interstate 5 the elk herds have been struggling with a bacterial foot disease. Anecdotally I lived where (southwest Washington) there was a herd in the high twenties that cycled through where I lived and I watched them dwindle down to presently a group of three, sometimes four, with...
