hope you are correct SVK, but sadly I think you may be wrong

Load number two this is going to be a new subdivision in Santa Fe. The land owner said we could take whatever we want but if anyone tried to say they got hurt they didn’t have permission to be there fair enough for us

How about this one? It’s even lower priced yet, and lower shipping. But I wont buy it if it’s no good.

I've never used it, but a guy on another forum liked it. I'm guessing it's similar to Rockler's, but I just don't know. Maybe Google reviews on the product.
I chose Rockler's over Anchoseal because there is a Rockler store close to me in St. Louis. I only bought one gallon because as in your case, it will treat two trees easliy. I could have ordered two and got free shipping, but I wanted to try it out first. Forgot to mention, I let the first coat dry and then recoat.
So I'd say go for it (Klingspor's) and see how you like it. Let us know, too.

The boys got snowmobile safety certified today. Couple inches of new snow this afternoon.
That's a good experience for them. I'm guessing it's similar to the course we have in Ontario. A fellow volunteer and I teach the course here. All my kids got it and I feel it helps them not only with sledding but later on with driving.

Kawasaki two stroke triples are what started my involvement in anything mechanical since the age of 16 when I bought my h1(still have it)

Check out this conversion kit. One of the members on another board I frequent from MN had a kit called the “snow job”. 1972 Kawasaki h2 750cc two stroke triple on a snowmobile bottom.33F19205-47E3-42FC-AC9D-4DAA5E38321A.jpeg08ED28E4-5A3F-4179-9AD9-CAE092C99997.jpeg

My nephew had a Jeep blow a stop sign in front of him. Lucky the brush pile stopped before reaching his brain

It's a good class. I missed the cutoff by 1 day when they changed the law and I had to take the course. I had more miles the year prior than all 3 instructors combined. It was kind of ironic and I ended up taking 1 of them to my dad's ranch in the big horn's so he could mountain ride. Still a great friend to this day.
