GAMO has some great deals. I bought my .22 cal pellet rifle at 50% off. It was brand new but supposidely reconditioned. The only thing that I noticed was that the front sight looked like it had been fixed. It is deadly.With the recent discussions about air guns I figured I’d mention that Airgun Depot often has sales. They have one now with 12% off on a bunch of stuff…. Ends today. Code GRNSALE

I got a Beeman P1 from them. It’s more accurate than my Colt Gold Cup and Kimber Gold Match .45s and a LOT cheaper to shoot. The downside of it’s inherent accuracy is I cannot blame the gun if the 10 meter groups aren’t tight.

That head is full of cracks… That suggests it wasn’t heat treated (e.g., hardened and tempered) properly at the factory. Me personally, I’d find another head and rehang it.
The one advantage you may have with a hewing hatchet (or debarker as you use it) is that it won't see the same impact loads as say a splitting maul would. It's a cool piece - if it doesn't work after welding, you can still make it into a wall hanger. Looks like it needs to be rehung anyway!
Think the comment was relative to the ammo rather than the weapon.
I'll just avoid the state now that I'm retired so don't get sent for work. I was born in Illinois but my folks escaped a handful of months later. Other than work assignments and a handful of connecting flights at O'Hare I've never been back.
You are correct.
A must have if ever I saw one!
That would really impress my neighbors up at the cabin ... but so far, the Blizzaks are getting it done!
It is like how I view all these new Retro 67/68 Mustang fastbacks they are coming out with. My dream car come true, I had it right back in the day! (Had 2 67 and 3 68 Fastbacks of my 10 total Mustangs). Love the looks, and many have more Hp than mine, but few (if any) will out handle mine, and you will usually be giving up anti-lock brakes and power windows. So, for $300,000 +/-, I think I'll just hang on to what I have!

Of course it was, because they want to outlaw them.

Foid cards are for Illinois residents. Out of state people can’t get one and don’t need it. A lot of places like Walmart don’t know or just don’t care
IIRC someone was looking for woodshed ideas.
Here's what I built.
It's 24"x15.5 with a 3.5'(or so) overhang on the front.
I just used 16' board and raised them up until it had just enough slope for the main(ended up at 15.5), and did the same on the front overhang until I liked the look, that was 4' to start with.
The boards on the sides are red oak(scrounged logs) milled by Arboristsite's very own @Sawyer Rob , the rest of the materials were mainly second hand pieces.
There's a 6'x15.5' section on each side and 12' in the middle for storage. I can fit just a bit more than a yrs wood on each side depending on how high I stack it, although height is limited now on the right side because of the shelf for storage.
I staggered the support post to the front so they were a bit closer together for strength where they are taller and to allow me to get a better angle into them for unloading the bucket. It' works great.
Sure wouldn't mind having the honda foreman and that exmark back, but I sold them when I bought my first small tractor. Cant afford them all, so I guess I'm not ready for the Snow-Cat yet
.
Sure beats dealing with all this, but it all takes time.

One of my clients moved on Friday. Pulled servers, switches, firewall and shelves from their rack and got everything back up and running in the new place.
When I was done one of the owners gave me this:

We just drive else where to get it
The hewing hatchet was very likely abused long before it came into my care. I think someone had been striking the back side of it with something other than a froe.
I think it's relatively mild steel given how easy it it to put a *super* sharp edge on it.
I like that I can hang it 'upside down' so that, as a lefty, I can take advantage of the offset.
The stop-drilling, wallowing out the cracks, and preheating prior to welding are great suggestions. I had considered all of those but didn't know if it would be worth the effort.
I'll have do go down to the farm to borrow some time on my Father-in-law's welder.
