Hum...What would Don do..Stay away from that and all should be good.
Well, not so quick there Tonto!
I'd take a run at it with the rubber track loader and it would move as far as I wanted!
But that contraption Tex is talkin' about sounds like it would work, but we'd need a vid just in case it didn't! ;-))
Now that is what I am talking about. Two rubber tracks laying in the woods and Don scratching his head wondering what went wrong.

I sure would like to see the action, don't think one truck will move it unless it is tied to a tree with a wrecker between the truck and the load. BUT I am from Washington so just need to see it on video to believe it.

Well maybe...If it don't move ya got to hit it harder.

and why cant your tractor not push it back the foot or 2 that you need?
if you place the bucket on the bottom frame portion of the container you should be good? just go slow and don't ram anything?
if all else fails, give boone a call and see if he can come down with something?
Getting to close to what Don would do....

I think it would work, even if you had to set up a double pull with wire rope. Protect the tree bark too unless it is history after the move.
Added: Call in a friend with a good sized winch on their truck. Rig it up and be done.

Actually, we are raising adults. They just start life being small.

Charles, you need your own page. "Texas Resort Retreat" would be a lot better page name than having it posted inside the hide site page.

Tate, just brushed on butter, lemon juice, and pepper. Kept the temp down and let it fester long enough to get the corn finished. Of all the salmon, I really like the sockeye.

Bob I not only follow the law I respect my neighbors. We are in the country and it?s entirely legal. And we were done by 10pm.
But just in case there were stray dogs or other nefarious creatures I was carrying my G23 and an extra mag.
Armed neighbors are polite neighbors.

I don't even know what nefarious means but here those fireworks were not legal and it was well past midnight, and our little dog was not doing all that well, and I was still all done with them. I just might have been carrying also, not that it would have mattered. Polite neighbors would have been done before midnight.

So, Bob, you're just that old groucher neighbor? :)
Well, no not really, just thought it was time to come to an end. Not saying I am not grouchy, just really tired of the noise.

Nice evening to BBQ
1114
« on: July 05, 2018, 09:12:59 PM »
So, I fired off the grill to around 300* and let the corn and salmon do it's thing. Hot this afternoon so didn't get too carried away.

Was that you at 1:30AM behind our place. I was close to walking over and making you a deal " if you stopped now I wouldn't call the law." A few years ago I would have just tried to stop you myself but time has made me both smarter and less able.

Hope you all have a good day tomorrow. Be safe, whether you are traveling and/or just enjoying the day with family and friends.

Ask a rancher how they feel about them. Get a large pack running and not much is safe.

Right up to the point of move in when you find out it is not the latest and greatest. I just can't believe how fast things improve any more. Cept for long range target rifles.... right Charles....

I just bought a 50 amp 25ft extension cord for the trailer and there was nothin cheap about it. But never bought a welding cord so don't know. If needed I would just buy enough wire to install another plug so you didn't need to be changing back and forth.

Maybe you need to raise the sights a bit and look elsewhere for a new rig.

Nice to have a larger compressor in the fall when it is time to blow out sprinkler lines. I have a 220 unit but our friends only have a smaller 120 model. Takes most of the day to blow their lines out. They have 2.5 acres and water most of it so lots of line to blow out.
1123
« on: June 30, 2018, 09:10:00 PM »
Well, you can for sure upgrade but it will cost you. Most likely cheaper than if you rebuilt this on though.

Good job, enjoy the pool and the lawn as you worked very hard to get them....

No I have not, care to expand, open to a PM if too long for a posting...Thanks Shawn

Well I have an appt. coming up in a couple weeks and will ask for sure. Thanks for the heads up, have to say drinking all the liquid in the gallon jug is a hassle. Unfortunately I have only half as much to look at now, so hopefully all is good.

Kidney stones, well I guess this might not be in my best interest

Dave, really think hard about that OK. Where can you be after you finish school compared to where you will be if you don't. Not saying construction doesn't have good opportunities but a degree can really open some doors for you. You already have a bunch of time invested to just kick it to the curb.
1129
« on: June 28, 2018, 01:18:05 PM »
Glad it went well, good for a few more years. I on the other hand get to go in every year.
1130
« on: June 27, 2018, 10:08:43 PM »
For sure for sure. I wasn't so lucky so your odds are better. You will be fine.
1131
« on: June 27, 2018, 07:33:50 PM »
Hope they don't find anything that shouldn't be there. Have a couple glasses of bourbon to celebrate the good news once you get home and feeling better.

Good job Sophie....and Dad....Nice you are able to spend the necessary time it takes for this activity, She apricates it I am sure.
1133
« on: June 27, 2018, 05:21:56 PM »
When you start sealing them be sure the wood is dry or it will end up being a mess at best.
1134
« on: June 26, 2018, 10:10:13 PM »
Yup for sure...I will take at least two and more likely four. How much for shipping and a small amount for you to put into the box on Sunday.
Used to have the flatbed truck show up with outdoor furniture stacked to the hilt looking for a sale. These are by far way above those things.

You're on the coast, towards Tate, Bob? Or Spokane side? I don't remember
We might be getting a 45 acre chunk of forest here shortly, in the panhandle. Might have to sell the shop to pay for the house build tho. lol
...Beautiful country.
Yes we are on the West side of the Cascades. You would be in the more sunny area but colder in the winter. Are you looking at lake waterfront or back a ways? Not that it matters, it is a very nice area. If you sold the shop, would you be moving full time out this way? We lived in Moses Lake for a few years, dryer than here but colder and hotter also. We are west of Seattle across the Puget Sound. ADDED:If you do sell the shop and move this way, you have my business after warranty
1136
« on: June 26, 2018, 02:53:58 PM »
Nice of you to come up this way and also fix the boat. Hope you enjoyed the time spent. Our summer months are nice but your winter months are too.

JR you need to get out of that state before SHE is completely brain washed. I am fighting the same thing up here, just agree to disagree on most things. Working on 49 years so it must be OK.
1138
« on: June 22, 2018, 10:12:38 PM »
Not South Korea, but the sales manager for Buick is from Georgia and not the state. Nice place just the same.
1139
« on: June 22, 2018, 01:33:50 PM »
Dave, what did you have removed? Yes Buick.
1140
« on: June 22, 2018, 11:53:43 AM »
Took the car to the dealer for the free oil change we got with the car. Well I should have gone alone or at least kept the wife in the waiting room. Nothing free about going to the dealer, but she likes this one better.
1141
« on: June 22, 2018, 11:23:17 AM »
That wood should turn out some really nice looking chairs. Like your style for sure.
1142
« on: June 21, 2018, 08:58:56 PM »
Dave, this is kind of late request isn't it? You should have an idea if the contractor is supplying a good product at a reasonable price. This isn't really a good time to start arm wrestling about price or what is being installed is it?
1143
« on: June 21, 2018, 07:04:35 PM »
Congrats man, 28 years is a good amount of time to find out things are working, so all is good for you guys. Enjoy dinner and tell her I said way to go. How is that white truck working for you, wish it were red yet?
1144
« on: June 20, 2018, 05:36:40 PM »
You are doing a good job with the axles, maybe drive mine down for you once you finish yours. Heck I would be happy if the knocking at startup would go away. It is better now with the larger oil filter, and hasn't effected the engine, yet that is....
1145
« on: June 20, 2018, 04:52:21 PM »
Whole bunch of hurtin going on in this thread. Shawn you should have known better, this could go on forever.

« on: June 19, 2018, 11:01:39 PM »
Sounds like a great piece of property. Hope it works for you
1147
« on: June 19, 2018, 01:54:42 PM »
Sorry you have such a full plate, you are in my thoughts and prayers
1148
« on: June 18, 2018, 10:44:53 PM »
True Charles but it is also nice to have a conduit in place to run whatever might be needed later. Hard to pull a wire, that is stapled in place, to get a new one installed.
1149
« on: June 15, 2018, 10:26:54 PM »
Don, I am not a trailer builder, but what size axles are under it and the max tongue weight for your hitch? You could very well be road legal depending on how you load it and how much weight you can leave at the farm like attachments and tools. Might want to change the spring paks at some point depending on what you have now. Or move it when the weight police are having coffee and doughnuts and not change anything.

Dave, that home is coming along very nicely. Is the home being built by your boss's company? Glad you are able to inspect the work daily and get the mistakes taken care of. What if anything has been done with the cracks in the floors? Do you think those cracks are only the depth of the extra cream the flatwork guy left, or clear through the slab. Sounds like either way you have a plan to fill with epoxy if deep before the finish goes on. Sure looks nice......
