The DIY Sten Gun. 

Mayhaps this winter I might try my hand…..

Anyone ever tried one?

Except sometimes, not.

1 CC machine dead in storm on Tuesday evening. Check

Called them that night. Gotta wait until the AM to order a replacement. Check.

Wed AM, order replacement. Should arrive FedEx Thursday early morning deliver. Nope.

Not in the AM, not at noon, not by three. No tracking number available either.

It is bad enough when the job interferes with my drinking. (I mean, it is an issue, but it does help keep me out of trouble)…

But now, things are so chaotic and messed up that it is interfering with my SHOOTING….

Something hasta give. And soon.

I’d quit, but I own my own business, so I am kinda stuck…..

I really should go shooting when I am this fatigued…..might have to for real someday.

Not that I could shoot well….I’m so jazzed on coffee that I am about to start to hear colors.

Batgirl, has passed. 

Bummer.

I feel older .

Watch THIS

Please put the drink down first. clear your desk of any spillable liquids. Maybe breakables too….

Heh

Found on this forum

So I have this backhoe….

Actually, I have a Chinese made attachment backhoe that fits on the three point hitch of my Kubota tractor….

It is a pretty good backhoe. Digs well, and has enough digging force to move the tractor even with the stabilizers down sometimes. Nice unit for small jobs.

38 HP tractor. PTO driven Hydraulic pump.

Gearbox on the hydraulic pump seizes. Hilarity ensues. Parts flying like a small detonation had happened. Chains and brackets and bolt heads and other pieces flew with abandon and gusto.

No one was hurt. Chains did break, and pieces of metal were thrown about but they hit exactly no one who was watching me dig the trench. Those guards and shields that always get in the way actually have a purpose….

But they all moved back fairly rapidly.

Now I gotta contact the company and get them to send me a replacement.

No electric install for the range in the meantime. None of the other projects that I have waiting will happen either.

ETA: Now I gotta figure out how to disconnect the damned thing from the tractor……No hydraulics is gonna make things interesting……

Hey, Little Bro….Happy Birthday to YOU this time….

Why isn’t Hillary Clinton under arrest right now….or at least under indictment…..She wiped her server hard drive clean.
 Isn’t that suppression of evidence?

Were you or I in the same position, we’d be looking out through bars.

Why isn’t she?

Dog gets to play in snow one last time before dying.

Lots of folks made that happen.

Story with video HERE. Mind the dust.

I know when Schmoo was coming up to her time, we did everything we could to make her happy. But nothing like this….

Damn, I miss my dog.
