Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

I've heard beet juice turns into a slimey stinking mess and most tire shops don't like messing with it.

Nobody likes it, but you won't sell many tractor or equipment tires around here if you can't deal with it.

338 win mag just may work a tiny bit better then bear spray.

My best buddy got one, he hasn’t harvested a thing with it yet

Can’t wait to see what it does, how it performs

Who's gonna try this first! Is this how you square grind a chain!?

Interesting. Beet juice (Rim Guard) is pretty much the standard around here. We do produce a lot of sugar beets here so I'm sure it's a cost effective by-product of the industry.

Almost everyone has switched to Rim Guard here as well. Sucks when it leaks and when changing tires but at least it won't eat your wheels up.

I used RV antifreeze in my 318's rear tires. It's heavier than water and environmentally friendly.

My New Holland has calcium chloride in the rear tires and the Kubota has Rim Guard in all 4 tires. I plan on taking it out of the fronts. It's just excess weight that doesn't need to be there.

I've shot brown bear, moose, caribou. deer and some others with one, it really depends on what bullet you use.

When I called the ag tire place for tires for the new holland the first thing they asked was if the tires had beet juice in them. They wouldn't do tires that had that in for some reason. Mine don't have calcium in them but something else and I can't remember what it is.

it is a sticky nasty smelling mess after a while, but just about everyone around here sells it. I got mine from eblings down in myerstown just because they would sell me a 55 gal drum of it. (Have my own pump.) Pretty sure it's all messicks uses now too.

Down load for deer and just as capable for elk and bear with full power loads. Pretty much over kill for most things here in PA, but continues to be one of my favorite rifles. Got it after my first trip to the ranch in Montana.

Good morning,

Our little town continues to clean up from the worst flood in history. 100 homes and/or businesses flooded last Wednesday.

On Monday our Lions club mobilized and presented several pickup trucks worth of cleanup gear, dehumidifiers, fans, and other supplies to our fire department as well as a check to help them with the immense cost of feeding their entire staff plus volunteers. Was a great feeling to be a part of this.

Everything in this photo except for the pallet of bottled water was provided by the our Lions club with a combination of our own funds and a grant from Lions Club International. Since then, donations have poured in and we continue to keep the supplies replenished.

Like I said we use windshield washer concentrate mixed at a ratio to not freeze down to -20F. Think my Grandfathers old Longs have RV antifreeze mixed in.

Got the inner side of my rim painted last night, went to go and remove the old one off the tractor so that I can swap the tire over, but the clamp nuts had different plans. Either need to burn them off with the torch of finally break down and buy a battery grinder as I don't have power down where its currently parked.



Wish companies still used cool slogans on stuff like this.

Visitors to the mulberry tree. Note that the yews are stripped of greenery every winter as high as the deer can reach when standing on their hind legs!

Not to get political, but that debate was a train wreck from the start to the very end.
