Yep, the good old days.
Riding out in the old Bomadier.

Nah, just cut a hole with an acetylene torch!! (We'll watch for the "Northern Lights" here in S Ont!!
I got a UNI bit no need fer the torch.
I can weld it up with my new MIG welder I just got though.
-
Don't forget you want liquid Dave.. not vapour to fill ! Why you turn the 20 lb'r upside down when filling the 1's.
Yah got that right Bri!
Still trying to figure out a way to invert my 1500L tank.

I have a 1500L tank @ the house and have removed an old heater that is no longer used.
I plan to rejig the connection back outside to refill my 5# and 20# tanks.
-
Bud, I dont care if you all refill.
Im still looking for a 5 pd at a decent price,then will have it filled at Costco.
I bought mine @ Home Hardware.
I don't see the 5#ers on their site now though.
There is a 4.25# tank though.

Cripple fight! LOL!

I'd give Phanuef a shot at plying as a winger for a few games. Seriously, what would they have to loose?It worked with Buflyn (sp) in Winnipeg. It might do wonders and it might be a disaster, but right now disaster seems to be pretty common. At least it would show that they are willing to try something different. And ya never know..........
In Winnipeg Byfuglien was a defenseman before he was a forward.
They were using him up front lately. They put him back on defense when they were down 4 D due to injury.
It's obvious he likes the D position better and it shows in his play.

I am looking to buy a Tundra in a couple of years.
I'm waiting for them to come out with their new engine/tranny combos.
I can't see buying one now with the older V8 that gets horrible gas mileage.
There are rumors of them putting the new Lexus V8 (re-tuned) as well as the 5.0 Diesel in them.
There may be info coming @ the Chicago auto show next month.

Hahahaha, comes with a tow hook on the front when it dies.
Ya, ya I know 
I thought that was where you plug it in to recharge the batteries.

I will say that I bought my boat through Legend when they had the dealership in Mississauga.
I knew going in that I should upgrade the motor, so I did.
The hull is made by Fisher as is the trailer and is very good and well built on both accounts.
The only wood on my boat is two pieces of teak trim and the core of the transom. The stringers and floor boards are all aluminum.
If you know going in what to expect you can upgrade to a decent package, but if you go in uniformed you will very well walk away with a sub standard rig.

Holy crap you guys will go threw alot.
Whats the price for 1lbers over der?
Last I picked up was 3 for 10 (just like those wacky smokes used to be).
Also do you guys run your friggen heaters all day??? One is gonna enough for a day for me??????
I'd rather spend 3.33 per and be safe/legal
I run a 15,000BTU sunflower heater on a 5# tank and get two days out of it.
It generally runs full out most of the days I'm on the ice. A warm winter day is -20 here.
My Buddy heater is for things other than ice fishing as it on high is like my sunflower on low.
I picked up the Buddy to use in my tent trailer in Alaska in the fall when the temps drop below freezing. I don't like listening to the furnace run non stop.

The new Colorado ZR2 looks like a sweet little truck.

I don't do it but when they fill my refillable tanks they weigh them as the Ish says.
For instance empty weight on my 5# tank is 8# filled to 80% (5#'s of propane) it weighs 13#'s.
Weigh an empty 1#er add 1# to that weight and you will have a properly filled 1# tank.
Be easier if you had a soft hose going between the large and small tanks and weigh as you are filling.
When @ the right weight close valve on supply tank.
-
Besides the danger of leaks when transferring the main risk is overfilling a tank.
Propane containers must not be filled past 80% of the capacity. The remaining 20% allows for pressure expansion.
Liquid inside a container filled to the top leaves no room to expand. So when temperature rises the only way for this pressure can be relieved is the expansion of the container itself. All it takes is a few degrees for this to happen and allow the tank to rupture.
When filling propane cylinders you must know the capacity of the tank and how much it weighs. Then fill on a scale.
Some cylinders have a bleed valve you can open that allows liquid propane to come out when it reaches the 80% level.
The only way the tank will rupture is if the pressure relief valve is damaged or disabled.

I've been very happy with my Big Jon captain's pack.
Sorry to hijack your thread, but does anyone know where to get the replacement plastic 'bead' that attaches to the downrigger cable and activates the auto-stop?

Also isn't that the same hose I use for connecting my 20 lbs tank to my camping cooking stove or my camping propane lantern?
If so I have it and will not need to spend on it.
Thanks.
Cheers,
Ice Fisherman
I'm using the hose I bought @ CT for my coleman stove.
As I said, I also purchased the filter from Bass Pro to use with it.
-
Your large cylinder needs to be at room temp and the 1#er should be kept in the freezer to cool down prior to filling in order to get the best fill.
The large cylinder should be upside down during filling as well.
The filter keeps contaminants that may be introduced into the refillable cylinder (from the refilling center) from clogging up the venturi.
For the price it provides good peace of mind if you're using bulk cylinders.
-
Here you go.
I have the hose and filter set up for mine so I can run off a larger tank.

I spent 15 years working charters on Lake O and they were by far my favorite riggers to use.
Easiest rigger to bring the ball to hand and easy to work on if anything went wrong with them.

The last time I had something migrate down the leg of my floater bibs it was highly unpleasant.............
-
I think he needs a balaclava more than some baklava
No, he's right!!!
I need a baklava!!! LOL
Got a balaclava already.
Thought I lost my good one today while ice fishing.
Luckily it had only migrated down the leg of my snowmobile bibs.

$90G's is a damn fine down payment on a real boat!!!
Like one of these!!!

I dunno!
Can you laffites handle another shutout?
Sure can. Especially if it is the other way around.
Can the Senoritas handle it?

Does Nashville have nice golf courses?
