    NFR *%!@ing moles!

    I bought some small inline tunnel traps for gophers and never caught a mole with them. I cleaned out the tunnels of loose dirt but the moles just pushed dirt to cover or trip the trap. I have had good success with a garden hose if they get in my lawn. If you can get behind them as they dig a new...

    NFR Hand warmers

    My son decided to go go with battery milwaukee tools for all his work and personal use so that one battery would fit all. When the temp gets below freezing he can wear his milwaukee electric coat that uses the same battery as the tools he uses to make his job easier.

    talk to me about center-pinning

    I tend to fish with bait casters that have no anti reverse dog{abu 5000d} or reels with a switch to engage the dog{Quantum 1420}. They do the same thing as the centerpin reel but provide me a quicker retrieve and i believe easier casting.

    Muzzleloading

    If you are gonna build a kit gun beaware that the metal parts in most kits are not blued. Cold bluing is not the greatest rust inhibitor. Black powder, and substitute powders, leave a residue that is very corrosive.

    Trailer roller repair

    You may want to spot weld the bearing in place so it stays in place. A piece of trex bolted to a metal bar would make a slick, cushioned sturdy bunk

    talk to me about center-pinning

    I fished one for a while over 50yrs ago and found that it was much harder to cast with than my ambassador. I had to use more weight to cast with it and had to develop a different swing to cast. You pretty much have to palm the spool when you hook a fish. Someone has removed the outer rim. I...
