    Charcoal grill opinions?

    I'm looking for opinions from charcoal users. I currently have a Chargriller that I have been pretty happy with, but its about done. The grates need replacing and the ash tray is shot. Cost to replace the parts in not that far away from the cost of replacement. I am not a big fan of Webbers due...

    Montana Sggestions??

    Anybody have experience with Montana, besides Cooke City? Its looking like this may be the best spot in the country for decent snow conditions next week. Problem is, I am riding with 3 Newbies. They all have gear but no training yet. With the instability of the snowpack and the notorious avy...

    Make-A-Wish sled restoration project.

    Skiroule, here are a couple more small things I could use if you happen to make it out to one of those yards again. The air intake silencer is missing the 90 degree elbow at the inlet side., and also what ever is supposed to hold it down. (it was held on with big hose clamps on my sled) The...

    Make-A-Wish sled restoration project.

    Thanks for all the leg work your doing Skiroule. Very much appreciated!! This hood certainly looks workable. The only thing that concerns me with this one, is there appears to be some differences in the shape. If you look on the right rear vent section(by where your knee would be) it appears to...

    Make-A-Wish sled restoration project.

    I don't have any interesting pictures of remarkable progress to share today, but thought I would let everybody know I haven't been sitting on my rear either. My compressor issue turned out to be a bigger ordeal than I was expecting. I had to get a different bushing to switch the pulley over to...

    And I thought I had the itch ...

    This was at 6:30 this morning. I was long gone by then, but Mom couldn't even get him to eat his breakfast. Just wanted to go ride his "sled" cuz it snowed. I'd be hard pressed to call it a snow event, but try telling that to a 5 year old snow junkie. The wife says I created a monster. I'm...

    Make-A-Wish sled restoration project.

    So I have been working with John on an idea I have to donate my 1976 Ski-doo TNT 340 fan, for the Make-A-Wish cause. It is currently in pretty rough shape and not worth a whole lot. I'm hoping that with some help from fellow JD members, advertisers and vendors, we can restore this sled to its...

    Anybody try the Fiskars splitting axe?

    Is it really as good as a maul? Is it really "unbreakable"? I'm tired of replacing handles cuz I suck!

    Does anyone know how to get around the wall that is human resources??

    No offense to anyone that works in HR, but the impression I am getting is that HR personnel is, generally speaking, just a robot that really has no clue what they are even looking for when they see an app or resume. I have applied for several jobs that I am more than qualified for, and just for...

    80 cc dirt bikes ROCK!

    So I bought my then 13 year old a Cr80 last year, because he was showing some interest in the sport, and I thought I would teach him how to ride and see where it went. Well, his interest seems to have fallen off because he hasn't asked me to ride it a single time this year. I don't know if it...

    Anybody know of any rope swings in U.P. or northern WI?

    Growing up in New England, we had a rope swing on just about every lake with a tree next to it. I was having a conversation with my kids and realized that they had never experienced the thrill of a good, fast and high rope swing! Since there are no trees or clean lakes more than 3 feet deep in...

    Sunspot activity?

    They say the sun may go into a "decades" long slumber causing a similar effect as the "little ice age" back in the 1700's. Sweeeeeeeet!!! THINK ICE AGE!:D

    Anybody else get a survey card in the mail? I am kinda of skeptical about taking the survey because nowhere on the card does it state the reason for the survey or any kind of company name/affiliation. Nothing on the web site either. Also at the bottom right side of the card I see a stamp that...
