Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

[Sawyer Rob]

What are those, when I pull the trigger mine just keep going bang.

Those would be called "full Auto".

A little judicious application of throttle (all of it) and the corolla popped right out of its wintry tomb! Kubota took care of the rest. Merry Christmas fellow scroungers!

I've got some kinda like that too, but I much prefer the old style stuff for plinking.

Actually, all my modern guns were lost in a terrible shipwreck last year.........you know how that goes......

You'res too?!?! So did mine! Must have been the same shipwreck!!!

In addition to the larger loop, they added something to make it fire as the lever closed, and those 92s did hold a lot of short rounds! (but not that many).

It's nothing more than a hole drilled in the lever, threaded and a screw added to hit the trigger when the lever is closed.

Guys use to do it all the time.

Hopefully I'll have my plow mount finished today! I got this far yesterday. I STIHL need to trim mount to length, drill keeper pin holes and weld on tabs Then remount skid plate and drill u-bolt holes in it. Then mount the entire plow assembly.

Merry Christmas Everyone!

Still a little windy, but at least the sun is out and it is up to 20*. Sorry for using the *, but there is no degree button and I got tired of typing it!

On my desktop computer, it is ‘command / something’ (?). I forget, but you can look it up. Might be different on a Windows machine.

On my iPhone, I hold down the zero key (not the letter ‘O’) and it gives me the degree option. °

Also works for some foreign punctuation: è ü â, etc.

Your mileage may vary.

Stay warm!

Those are nice bars if someone can use them!

My Makita can run up to 18" and here in Europe they get shipped with a 0.325" sprocket. I'd buy one but I think shipping would be a bit of a killer

I like those bars, but just don’t have anything running that combination right now. For the right person, it could be worth buying chains to match!

°°° easy on my android keyboard.

Command 247 rings a bell

 

[MustangMike]

I use a computer with Windows 11.

If you know of a fix, fine, but I don't think using the * is a big deal problem. I'm not going to lose any sleep over it.

Here is my donation to everyone's white Christmas. How much snow will stay on a 2x4 railing?

We still have power, as does my younger daughter, so we went to her house (as was planned) this morning and saw 3 of the grandkids.

My older daughter (in NH) was supposed to come down with my grandson, but they have been w/o power so she cancelled the trip.

My brother was w/o power but got it back 9:30 last night. He only lives about 10 minutes away. A tree came down an took down 6 telephone poles.

Will be at one of the stepsons in the afternoon, and the other one is scheduled to be there.

Still a little windy, but at least the sun is out and it is up to 20*. Sorry for using the *, but there is no degree button and I got tired of typing it!

20° -- to obtain the degree symbol on a PC hold down the ALT key and press 248 on the number pad. Given that it is an extended ASCII character this CHR number probably works on a MAC too...

100° OK, Thanks, have to use the # pad , does not work with the # keys above the keyboard.

Learn something every day!

Yeah... I started playing with IBM main frames back in the early - mid '70s when I was in HS and then with PCs in the early '80s. Among others I got an AAS in microcomputers for business. There was no graphical interface (e.g., Windows) back then... You had to manually insert printer control characters in documents to do things like bold face and underline. I used to create graphics with extended ASCII characters and there are still some that come in handy... like the degree symbol!

With the cold, wind and snow (up at my property) our 2 trail cams have NOT had a picture of a deer (or anything else) for over 2 weeks!

But today, we have not 1, not 2 but 3 deer in the same shot, and one is a shootable Buck! We have not seen a Buck on our trail cams since 11/20 (opening WE). It is also the 1st time we have seen more than 2 deer in the same shot! Forgive me for getting excited over small things, but I'm excited!

MZ season opens again tomorrow through 1/1, and me and MechanicMatt and are planning to go up the final WE. It is good to know there is something still hanging around on my property!

A little something for you Jar-heads.

I'm counting on the Holiday MZ season... didn't see a legal deer during the regular or MZ seasons. Craziest season I've ever had in terms of what I saw in the huntable woods. Residential neighborhoods is a different story!

When I was in college the computer course taught us to keypunch oak tag cards to run a program on the mainframe, last time I ever did that stuff!

I was preparing Tax Returns in people's homes, on a portable computer (a Kaypro 10) back in 1983! The operating system was CPM!

The floppies were 5.25" and you had to remember to type in "safety" before you moved the computer, or you would ruin your hard drive!
