Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

So you aren’t under their control you just abut their property ?

Correct

WD40????

What did water deterrent formula 40 do to you??!!??

The product itself is OK I guess, but the last straw was finding 5 dysfunctional cans in the FIL's barn last year. 0 dysfunctional cans of Gibb's, PB Blaster, Liquid Wrench, or ANY other brand. I've probably had a dozen cans over the years with broken or clogged nozzles or just plain no charge in them. I'm done with them and there are better products anyway.

And don't get me started on MLB because I'm really passionate about that.

My GF is a NP and keeps telling me I need a colon checkup now that I am 45.

I think I am going to identify as a 44 year old for a while.

You can't do that, only women can adjust their ages.

I too have had issues with WD40 not having enough propellant to fully empty a can. I have a super small air nozzle that works great with those small plastic tube's on the spray nozzle. I'll stick it in and hit my air nozzle and push down the can nozzle. When the bubbling sound stops I release the can nozzle.

Kroil or homemade ATF/acetone for the win.

Go Brewers!

I hate the smell. Switched to Walmart brand. Half the price and works better.

if you pee on a rusty bolt it would work better then wd40.

Atf/acetone can't afford that fancy kroil, even though i do like it.

And take the Tigers with you!!!

My only knock on WD-40 is that it can freeze and even made my 870 malfunction in very cold weather.

I do like that I can spray it on plastic to clean it, and after I clean a rifle bore, I spray a touch in the barrel and then run dry patches just to give it some rust protection during storage (that does not affect 1st shot accuracy). This system seems to work very well for me. Many of my best groups include the 1st shot, which when hunting is the only one that counts.

I have migrated to using Hornady One Shot as a general gun lubricant and bore cleaner.

I was using a can of WD-40 over the weekend, and it seemingly lost all pressure in an instant. It's not the first time that it's happened, but I think I'm about done with buying it. Except maybe for some small uses on a couple of my rifles.
I've actually had better luck using penetrating lubercant to remove rusted bolts.

I discovered that Stihl hedge trimmer cleaner is a good lubricant, and it seems more like a penetrant. Needed lubricant one day, and that's all I had.

Signed papers for the pole barn . Be a couple of weeks till I get the stamped plans to finalize the building permit . Was a bit more than a steel building but every “broker” for steel buildings seemed to be shady and underhanded. And the ones that you delt directly with the manufacturer the price was about the same as the pole barn .

LOLOL

Or their weights!

I cant tell you how many times in the ~3 years on the single market where you would see a girl on a dating site. All face pics and nothing more. Then you see them in person as they waddle in the door.

I don't know how some of them pull it off. How a 250-300 pound gal can have the same size face and neck as she did when she was 120 lbs.

Look up "woman cat fishing" on you tube. You'd be amazed what makeup will do for them.

Coworker back from the dealership days told about how much of a hassle it was to go visit a family member who lived in HOA neighborhood. He had to let them know in advance so they could tell the HOA that they were going to have a car parked in the driveway as the HOA mandate was all vehicles had to be parked in the garage with the door closed, nothing in the driveway or street without notice for anything over a certain time. Should switch the letters around to better say "Organization of Horses Arses".

I briefly lived in a HOA about 15 years ago.

I bought a boat and arrived home at about 6 pm with plans to bring it to the cabin first thing in the morning. I think they got the first "anonymous report" 40 minutes after I arrived and several more before I left. Tough ****, I am leaving in the morning. Never got a fine but landlord was chewed out by HOA.

 

[svk]

Another time when we were moving out. I had called the garbage service to arrange for a special pickup (at my expense) so I had a big pile of trash on the curb from stuff that wasn't coming with. They didn't show up for two days and the HOA practically rang the landlord's phone off the hook.

I said what would you like me to do? I called and ordered a special pickup. Clearly they can see I am moving out.

Never ever ever again.

It’s all fun and games . Yesterday went to do some errands on the way home CEL and the traction control light comes on . The truck lost power could hardly make it up the mountain to the house . Pull the code it’s the left bank camshaft sensor . Looked up that it’s common for the traction control indicator light to come on with it . Not sure why but I ain’t no computer geek . Ordered right and left new ones (Hitachi) from Rockauto they should be here tomorrow or Thursday. Wasn’t too bad getting the old one out . See how hard it is for the passenger side tomorrow

Got the sensor this afternoon took about 10 minutes to put it in . So a half hour job without the 20 minutes it took to find a 10 mm 1/4 inch drive socket
