  1. Do your wallet a favour and go to your local Canadian Tire, go to the oil section and get a litre of AMSOIL 100% 100:1 premix, about $9.00, if you can use all that oil in the next couple years in your ice auger then you have drilled enough holes to drain the Atlantic. You can mix that stuff at 80:1 in your auger and still have lots of lube and no fouling. Jiffy Lube is just another cheap rebranded oil.
  2. Well maybe it's reflecting off the shiny surface, check this guys real photos: http://www.lakesimcoemessageboard.com/inde...;id_dbase=93391
  3. Double
  4. Where did you buy the auger? go check there, otherwise, go to Lebaron in Ottawa, as for oil, go and get any synthetic at Canadian Tire, jeez, I know Jiffy brand peanut better might be hard to mix...
  5. I'm surprised the power hasn't gone off here...yet. pine cones flying by at warp speed, couple of branches down. The wind gusts have got to be around 100km.
  6. I have yet to find a place that sells rim/tire combos that are balanced. Next time you go to CTC or Costco or P/A, check the tires, none balanced. The last one I got on sale at Costco wasn't either, asked the tire to balance it, no problem, no cost.
  7. Ummmmm Roy...he said 175/80/13 175mm tread width, 80% width/height ratio and 13inch rim.
  8. Like I said before, kinda hard to find an LT in 13 inch, and you don't find it necessary to balance them? OhhhKaaay, your toys, your choice, I suppose you don't balance your other vehicle tires either.
  9. Trailer tire rims are generally lug centric, not hub centric like cars and trucks. Unless you have a hub with specifically machined diameters that mate to the rim to center it, the wheel studs or bolts will do the same on trailer tires.
  10. Ah ha, another newbie that's never visited Princess Auto, you can get either painted or galvanized rims with tires from them for your trailer. Kinda hard to find an LT in 13" unless you leave them in the dryer for a while, eh Roy?
  11. Definitely a good heater/cooker, I made a small metal stand with a couple of J bolts and wingnuts to widen the base area when the soup pot or frying pan was on top. Worst thing I did was give it away when I sold the hut.
  12. Wishing everyone the best of health and happiness.
  13. Trouble, just go to the other guys board, jeez he's gone to the effort of outling a "parking" map so you oot's don't get tickets. For anyone else that would like the parking map: http://cbfb.proboards100.com/index.cgi?boa...amp;thread=2740
  14. So a rough translation would be that you have a couple of uncoordinted bear cubs as friends, I like the offset ones, shorter arm movement required, and no effort leaning downward.
  15. Well now we can can take this one further...all you have to do is whizz on the rope and let it freeze, I suppose it might stay stiff for a moment. Now go look up rigid in the dictionary and quit using the East Simcoe Dictionary..
  16. Here ya go: www.lakesimcoemessageboard.com/index.php?action=view&id_dbase=92850
  17. I don't think so...
  18. Little bit of difference between stitching holes and fish net stockings.
  19. Everyone forgetting Princes Auto, you can get reasonably priced ramps there for the same price of some unreasonably priced 2x6's.
  20. How about a Rubbermaid tote box, they come in all different sizes with tight fitting lids.
  21. Here's a couple more versions: www.iceshanty.com/ice_fishing/index.php?topic=92011.0 and www.iceshanty.com/ice_fishing/index.php?topic=16435.0 same sort of idea.
  22. Stoty, you must have missed my earlier post, I looked at those about a week ago, the red ones, take a real hard inspection, look at the seams, pretty shoddy sewing, then lift up a corner of the sled, pretty floppy. then crawl in unless your two foot 24, they are pretty low.
  23. How about your Gortex rainsuit, after all it's water in another state.
  24. Just looked on TWN, it's not over yet, much more coming by the end of the week. Went snowmobiling at work today, it's to the point that it's becoming a PITA, snow keeps flying over the windshield it's so deep. Definitely not good for making ice.
  25. And here my teacher has been wrong all this time, he said all days are the same, just daylight hours change. Hot water heater anyone..
