  1. thanks all! if you take the time to find what you're looking for, and spend some hours cleaning them up, its amazing what you can find in the pallets. The hardest part is pulling them apart without snapping the boards from the pile of skids, i also got some nice ash, and some beachwood as well
  2. itd basically the same response a pup has when it leaves the mother for the final time, fear, anxiety, nervousness, something with the owner scent on it will help a lot with that, just like having something with moms scent on it helps with puppies. Its tough to watch. try getting the dog active, either with another dog, or just playing in the yard
  3. would look great in my man cave/fly tying room
  4. Some of you may remember way back to earlier this year, I was in search of some pallets/skids to break down and build a coffee with. Well thanks to one of the members here, I was able to collect a few skids, and get some pretty decent quality wood to build it with. After pulling them apart, I took the boards over to a friends to have them refined, had all the edges jointed, and the thickness planed down. After planing them all down, with all the dirt removed from the face of the boards, the beautiful wood was revealed, a nice oak!!! I glued all the boards together to get the top The legs are made from spruce which were cut from 3 x 6 x 8ft rough cut boards and sanded down smooth We chose to go with the outside leg configuration Here it is all stained up, with all the edges routered down to remove the shard corners and the legs as well And the finished top all thats left to do is to varnish it
  5. how about the person the won against Winebego cause she put it on cruise control then went to the back to make a sandwich and it crashed
  6. why not just toss the whole book in your boat? that way you never have to worry about forgetting to bring it with you
  7. 100% yea. even the snacks are free for like 1500 points
  8. I haven't paid cash at a theatre for 3 years now. I have a scene debit card, so i build points on every normal purchase, 1000 points = 1 movie pass, I currently have over 5000 points
  9. They can be sent anytime, like I told GBW, they won't be needed until the spring anyway when they have some warmer temps
  10. Im sure the kids will be more than happy, as will the councilors since they won't have to spend a ton of time untangling giant birds nests
  11. I would say that it would be nearly impossible, for these 2 reasons, 1: that would require the seller to be proactive on their ad, and actually take it down when the item sells 2: the sellers lowest price isn't what they think it is, negotiations are different with everyone
  12. Thanks again GBW, going to make a bunch of kids very happy for years
  13. make sure you really moisten the line before locking the knot down, the friction is more then enough to weaken the line I was the palomar for some lures, but everything else i use the improved clinch. I use the surgeons knot for joining 2 lines together, great for replacing tippets.
  14. technically it does move 100m in 21 days with out having to pull up anchor lines.....if you combine the amount of movement from wave action, it should add up to that over 21 days LOL now try explaining that to the feds
  15. now heres a story, was driving home from work mid October, at night, was car length behind a cruiser, he somehow managed to read, and type my plate number in his computer, to find out my sticker was out of date (which it was at the time) and then slow down to get behind me and pull me over. extremely distracted driving imo, typing, while trying to read my license plate in his mirror at night.
  16. anything you can do with ground beef, you can do ground moose, or any wild game for that matter
  17. They make it seem like they are in the middle of no where, reallity is they are on Jolliffe Island, right next to Yellowknife. so they really aren't far from getting any sort of help. so thats something you really need to consider as well. The only ones that are out on their own are the ones that moved to Vee Lake. heres the satellite image. https://www.google.ca/maps/place/Jolliffe+Island,+Yellowknife,+NT+X0E/@62.4631037,-114.3461751,736m/data=!3m2!1e3!4b1!4m2!3m1!1s0x53d1f6f1e1365923:0x8a54379ed500f4f1?hl=en

  21. I do not know who David Chong is, but that is awesome, Im not sure how many are needed exactly, she just said anything to replace the broken ones would be appreciated. I would think in the neighbourhood of a dozen would be good. They have been using spinning reels, so to keep things easy, probably just spinning reels
