    Look up the ABANA chapter in your area and see iwhen there next hammer in is. Take some 1/2" round mild steel rod with you. Ask them if they could help you out.Doughnuts will help break the ice

  2. has not set their status

  3. show me a pic of your shop heater or a drawing for a wood stove
  4. the gemlet in the artillery manual was made by tapering the end of the rod leaving a lug past the taper. heat the taper and freeze the lug end from the shoulder to the end. put the end in the vise and twist the rod until the tip breaks off. this leaves a nice point that will get into the end of the primer.
  5. I work at a living history site and can see several hundred visitors a week. To solve the crowd control problem we built a fence section showing several different picket styles that are available the the customers. You can see this fence on the PBA site in the gallery section. www.pba.abana-chapter.com
  6. Don't worry fellas I will be helping her out whenever she needs it. I didn't offer to help for pay. I guess all good deeds do get payed
  7. I helped a lady clean out her dads house about a month ago. He had to move to a nursing home. As we cleaned out his shop she told me to load up a 100# peter wright anvil for helping. When we got to another shed she said I could take home 2 large oxy bottles and an act. bottle. Then when we got to another shed she sold me a lincoln sa200 portable welder for $150.00
  8. I have 3 heavy cords like this one. I took an idea from the stores that sell bulk chains. For this big a cord use a 3 1/2 gallon bucket with a lid. Cut a hole along one side of the top close to the edge, another in the center of the top. put the male end of your cord through the top going inside, then bring it back out from the other hole. snap the lid on your bucket and pull about 2 feet of cord out of the bucket. Know push the rest of the cord into the bucket leaving the female end exposed. Push the 2' tail back into the bucket. When you need this cord pull out the tail and plug it in,grab the female end and walk to the job site. no unwinding or untangeling needed.
