I have a Still "weed wacker". It is currently set up to use the string. I am thinking about swapping out for the plastic "arms", but wanted to get persons opinions on this setup. I am tired of having to open up the spool to straighten out how the string is mounted on the spool to get it to self...

So I got the temperature controller hooked up to my ceramic smoker and used them last night. It is going to be a dream to use. Not that the smoker did not hold heat well, but it did need checking every hour or so to make sure it was not too hot/cold. Going to smoke a turkey this weekend and...

This poop is starting to drive me batty and I think that the relief valve with the virus is no longer needed. There will ALWAYS be something to discuss with the political world, so to try and find a time when there is nothing is impossible. I do appreciate EVERYONE'S restraint from making...

So I just got a letter from our propane supplier, saying that we could lock in at $1.499 a gallon. I looked back and last winter we were locked in at 1.249 a gallon. Does not seem like a great deal to me, but I know the price can fluctuate and was wondering what others pay and if they think 25...

It just boggles my mind what some people can do. So life like. None of these were done with a CNC, but they can do some pretty cool things too! Then there are the folks who are such die-hard trend followers (apologies to anyone that this might apply to) that they will take a flawless mahogany...

Thanks to Slimcake for veering us off the "you know what" topic. Here is my attempt.... So, if money was not an issue, which three "toys" would you all get. Included in the no money issue is anything associated with it, like storage, maintenance, fuel, etc. The ONLY caveat is that these three...

There are lots on this discussion board and elsewhere that are worried the actions put into place due to this virus outbreak will be repeated in any future events that are similar. To me, this is a very valid concern. I was in favor of the quarantines and stay at home orders when cases started...

Have spent some time today looking over the latest data and trends. It looks like we may have reached the apex of the new case curve here in the US, or are within 3-4 days of it. Countries like Japan, South Korea, Spain, Italy have all been dropping for days. The US saw it’s first drop since...

I had the pleasure to ride with him while out in WY many years ago. Very down to earth and passionate about life and riding. May his family find peace and comforting through this all. -John

Canada just announced they are doing it for the next 6 months.

No matter your thinking on how big a threat the virus is or the actions taken to prevent the spread of it, there are some real life heros out there right now. The purpose of this thread is to give thanks to either specific individuals or a category of individuals who are doing something to help...

Just got word that for some reason there has been a run on TP. Not sure why, but I figured I could help. For Sale: 1 roll of Charmin's finest. I usually charge a buck a square while out riding in the bush, but will let this unused roll go for $100. That is a savings of $324! Please note...

So I am going to be in the market for a zero turn lawn mower. I remember a topic of this very nature on the board years ago, but did not pay too much attention and I am sure there are different options now. Right now I have about 3-4 acres to cut, some of it wide open, the rest with trees...

Hey Folks. I mentioned this earlier, but the Keweenaw Snowmobile Club is having a 50/50 raffle to help raise funds the the new groomer garage we are building this spring/summer. We have gone through the first 1000 tickets and are working on the second. Will be a nice chunk of change for...

Just got word that a water main broke and has washed out a portion of trail 3 approximately 17 miles north of Twin Lakes. The trail is still passable and the washed out area will be getting flagged ASAP. Use extreme caution while traveling in this area. The township has been made aware of the...

Woke up to 7" (fresh). Nothing quite as refreshing and satisfying. Really gets the blood pumping. -John

The protective snow mat will be going down on the lift bridge between Houghton and Hancock this Thursday, December 19th starting at 9 am. It takes a few hours for this to be completed, so please be patient and do not attempt to cross while this is happening. Have a nice hot cup of joe and a...

I have installed the much-needed upgrade to the NCN. Not all of the cams are in it yet, as I really wanted to get it going before this first big storm. I will be adding the rest of the cams over the next week or so, as well as some new ones I have found. So be patient and it will be fully...
