Creamcicle question?
How far apart for the legs on the carb. boot clamp?

Don't want to over tighten it.

Tighten it till it squeaks.

Tighten it till it squeaks.

Found it. 8mm

Up next: caving a hole for the comp. release. This could get ugly.[emoji6]

Morning all!!! I've got a feww loops of .063-.325 to sharpen for a neighbor/friend and then it's time to go pick up some Scottish Highland Cattle that the Boss, S.I.L. & B.I.L. and I are buying... It will be nice to be raising our own lean beef. They sure are woolly, docile boogers. Kinda like big dogs with horns. Pics later.

I have a friend who raises Scottish Highlands. I bought 4 rib eyes and a dozen burgers from him last year. Not real sure how I feel about the steaks. I probably need to eat more of them, but they sure don't taste like regular cow to me. The burgers are fine, but folks tend to dress burgers up a bit more than steaks. I'm not going to give up on them yet.

 

[SteveSS]

Maybe I didn't cook them right, I don't know.

 

[Locust Cutter]

They're a lot more lean. More akin to Elk. You have to cook them accordingly or else they'll dry out and can be a bit tangy...

 

[SteveSS]

Yep. Tangy is a good word to describe it. I just salt and peppered them and cooked them in butter in cast iron on the stove. I was warned that I needed to go easy on'em, but I probably over did it. I still have two of the rib eyes left.

 

[cobey]

caught my limit, it was cold, it was 34 deg. when i quit
i had fun hanging out with myself... ill be glad for a boat and warmer weather.
i walked about a half mile threw deer trails and such and found a guy that looked like the banjo
boy from deliverance fishing where i wanted to fish.. so i fished somewhere else all good

 

[67L36Driver]

Coby, you need to try the top end of Tanycomo below the dam. The trout have spent enuff time out of the hatchery they get their wild back. And, their color.

I was surprised I was able to pick this up almost in Kenneth's back yard. It must have been to small for him.

Nice .. were did you find it at

 

[warjohn]

About a mile from the Leavenworth county shop.

 

[WKEND LUMBERJAK]

Didn't see that on craigslist

 

[warjohn]

I picked it up last week. It was on there 2 days. I figured you might have been out of town. It runs like new. Made me realize I need to go through my other 2051.

 

[WKEND LUMBERJAK]

I don't shop in your back yard

 

[Locust Cutter]

Yep. Tangy is a good word to describe it. I just salt and peppered them and cooked them in butter in cast iron on the stove. I was warned that I needed to go easy on'em, but I probably over did it. I still have two of the rib eyes left.

Next time try searing them quickly and then lower heat for about 5min on each side. Also a bit of either lemon juice or orange juice for about 3-5 hrs before hand will do wonders.

Good day today!

Ready for tomorrow!

And what wood is this? I want to mill it...... Its kinda soft, real pretty, and can split with an Axe. Not stringy...

 

[Locust Cutter]

The bark looks like a Walnut and the grain kind of does to, but light Walnut of some kind, not the black that is predominate here.

 

[awol]

Does it have a kinda spicy smell to it? Looks a little like Sassafras, but they usually grow in groups and stay fairly small. The bark really does look like Walnut.
