  1. Yep, my trailer doesn't have a light on the plate either. Came that way from factory. Never had an issue with the cops over it. I need to move mine as it's getting beat up and could easily suffer the same fate as the OP's. My first boat I used a flat bed trailer to haul it around. It was hard to see the plate so I hung it on a chain around the OB so the cops could see it. Got pulled over and they said it needs to be on the trailer and that it didn't matter if they couldn't see it.
  2. ​I have to admit I'm a fan of the games and amateur sport in general. I don't like the pros being allowed in the games. I'm really liking the rugby sevens tourney.
  3. Somebody peed in the diving pool since the last comp. It's all green now.
  4. I found out my cabin air filter was clogged when I went to Florida a couple of years ago. The vehicle was 9 years old at the time and the filter had never been changed. I spent the $20 on a replacement and installed it in the driveway at my rental in FLA. Made a huge difference instantly. Probably why I couldn't get any heat on my drive down. I think they should probably be replaced every few years though.
  5. Canadain Tire carries SS staples.
  6. Vacay over, back to work Monday. Ordered my roofing yesterday. It should be here by the end of the month. Then I just need to figure out how to get it out there so I can put it up. Got some small details I can work on over the weekends between now and the time my roofing arrives.
  7. My neighbour dropped by this afternoon with a nice bag of whitefish and burbot fillets!!! He also commented how nice my cabin looks from the lake. You know, he's right!!! It does look pretty awesome.
  8. Got a good chunk of the roofing underlay done today.
  9. I didn't. Had 2 friends help me out.
  10. Mission accomplished!!!! All windows are now installed!!!
  11. Someone told me they took one but I haven't received it yet.
  12. I never even bothered to try the Edge browser. Just installed Chrome and that was it. When I'm using my phone as a WiFi hotspot I tell the puter it's a metered connection so it waits until I'm @ home to update. I guess it's not possible with the stick.
  13. Yup. And scaffolding too.
  14. HMMMMMMMM, I wonder what could be happening tomorrow @ the cabin?
  15. Got the basement doors finished. A little annoying that the last can of paint must have come from a different batch and is a slightly lighter shade. OH well, it's all good.
  16. Might rig up my winch somehow to help things out.
  17. Going to bring it in by boat. Not looking forward to hauling it up the hill though. The good thing is that the panels are only 16" wide. I'm using Vic West's standing seam hidden fastener product. http://www.vicwest.com/residential/products/steel-roofing/prestige
  18. Round and made of aluminium!!!! Great job, the boat looks like new now. Got a little 12 footer I need to do at some point as well as an old snowmobile. Just have to find the time.
  19. If I wasn't 6,000 kms away I would do it for you. You cna always road trip up here. Pretty easy wiring in boats. When I redid my helm I put in a quick disconnect plug so I can easily remove the whole cluster by just removing the bolts that hold it in.
  20. Porch roof sheathing finished!!!! Gotta measure up the roof tomorrow and go order my metal roofing.
  21. Got about 1/3 of the sheathing done. Was hoping to get 1/2 done but had multiple T-Storms roll through this afternoon.
  22. Got back to the lake after lunch this afternoon. Decided to hang my basement doors. Came together pretty nicely considering it was put together with spare parts from my neighbours shop. Even the top header isn't a top header it's a divider for a 2 door setup that I went to town on with my angle grinder. Had to make a filler for the window cut out on the left door and do some body work on a dent in the right one. Have to do some paint touchups and install a pair of plates so you can't crowbar the door open still.
