Did you see what this idiot did in the truck race Friday nite. Actions like that get people killed. Nascar did right by parking him for the weekend, but I sure hope his penalty is alot stiffer than sitting one weekend out. A monetary fine won't mean much to a rich punk like that, it has to be...

I got a new/used miter saw this weekend. It's in really good condition, and I'm sure the fine gentleman that I got it from really took good care of it. From the looks of his shop, he really has some nice stuff. I was a little envious.

Prayers go out to Dan Weldons family. Never good to see someone lose their life.

Does anyone camp this late in the season, or are you done? We are going today, for the weekend. Probably our last trip for the year, but maybe one more in a couple weeks.

John, Did you see the new miter saw that Bosch has? Instead of the dual rods for a slide, it has a pivoting arm. Suppose to be alot more accurate. When I read about it, they said it had a retail of $800, ouch. The mag. that it was in claimed it to be the best. -Jon

It started it's life as an ice fishing shack. Now it is a playhouse for my boys. Years from now when they outgrow it, I can resell it again as an ice shack.

Where were you, or what were you doing 10 years ago today? At the time we owned a cottage near Tomahawk, WI and I was there on vacation.

Hi John, Just wondering if you are doing either of the Wis. Snow Shows this year? New show in Wausau this year? -Jon

Maybe if we all band together and nicely ask John to change his forecast to cooler weather this HOT crap will go away. I for one am sick of this heat, and I'm ready for some cooler temps. So lets all get together and ask John for some cooler temps. John, would you please make this heat go away...

Lets here your favorite place to camp, and why. For us it is the Big Eau Pleine County Park. Located about 10 miles from Mosinee,Wi. We like the big, wooded sites. About half with electricity, no water. Nice area for the kids to play, lots of trails and wildlife. Not the greatest for swimming...

Does anyone use an electronic air filtering system on your heating/ air condition system? What are your feelings on how good it works? How often do you have to change the filters and how much are they? We have wood heat, and air, and are considering this type of unit. Everything about it sounds...

I always enjoy seeing what others have for their shop/ man cave. Let's see where you guys do you tinkering, or work, or just your place to get away from the day-to-day grind. This is my place to get away from everything if I just need a break, or if something brakes. It is simple and I don't...

What do you use for a sandblasting media? Is there a less expensive alternative? I have a hard time spending $40 for something that is just going to end up in the gravel.

So in my attempt to get rid of a skunk this morning, it decided if it was going to die, it would die (and stink) under my deck. Originally the smell was so bad that it gave me the dry heaves carrying the skunk away. It's not that bad now, but still not too good. Anyone have a good home remedy...

I have a couple of stumps that need to go. I cut them off low and flat, and cut a bunch of slits in them to hold the rain water. Is there something else I can put in the slits to speed up the rotting process that is not harmful to 2 little boys and a fur-lizzard? I was thinking salt, maybe. Any...

Hi John, At the trail signing in October you were telling me that there was going to be a new John Deere with the Soucy tracks grooming up there this year. How did that go, any problems, get stuck, good floatation? Any info. on the tractor and/or tracks? Thanks, Jon

Anyone every build a gantry? I just finished building one and would like to know what it's capacity might be. I put a 1 ton chain hoist and trolley on it, but I would like too know if it would handle more. Is there a way to test them, or are their capacities rated by the material that is used?

John, are you going to post pictures from the Ride-In? None of mine from the banquet turned out. Thanks, Jon

Does your club/organization do training for groomer operators? Do you do yearly refreshers? Is there a video available on gooming? We had an incident this winter that leads me to believe that basic grooming practices need to be reviewed onced in a while. I think that maybe some experienced...

Anyone going to the AWSC Convention? After the general session on Saturday morning there is going to be bus tours of some of the groomer/club sheds in the county. There should be 4 buses going east of Wausau, and 4 buses going west. Our club, the Poniatowski Dare Devils, will be one of the...
