  1. Got em saved in my photobucket acct.
  2. Got one of the original Olympus Stylus 300's (water resistant but it's been dinked to 6' and lived) and an Olympus Stylus SW1050 (waterproof and have used it as such). Both still work fine after many years of service. I have heard good things about the Panasonic Lumix cameras as well.
  3. I was watching the telly last night and I happened upon a game. Seems the Ottawa team lost to the New York Rangers. Sorry about your loss Matt. Seems that's #4 in a row. I sure hope the Leafs don't lose 2 more games in a row as then they would be just as bad as the Sens. Here's hoping the Leafs extend your losing streak to 6 on Saturday (that is if you manage to lose to the Blues on Friday). If not we'll just start your next losing streak!!! :rofl2:
  4. Don't feel bad Cliff. I had one of the instructors here at the college get a Kindle and she asked me to figure out how to work it. The instructions were on the unit but I found it impossible to figure out how to change the dang page!!!! I told her "you're on your own" And I am a tech guy!!!!! I just use Wattpad on my Blackberry as an ereader.
  5. Behind the doors on the lower right side.
  6. This is a little project I built for my folks quite some time ago but never had any pics of it. I took a couple of shots last month when I was back in Ontario. Got a lot of hours into this beast and it was built with no plans and just a rough sketch. It is made of solid pine (except the back. This was 1/4" pine plywood).
  7. My assembly bech was like that. Must have weighed 500#'s with the 6'X6'X1 1/4" MDF top and 4"X4" frame.
  8. When I built the workshop in our place back in Ontario I built my work benches with the front supports angling back toward the wall. Sort of in a triangular fashion if you know what I mean. This made it much easier for sweeping/cleanup and kept the front supports from getting in the way. The frame and supports were 2x4's and the top was 3/4" G1S plywood. This bench was 20' long and went along 2 walls wrapping around an outside corner. Here's a crude drawing to help visualize it. I also built a 6'X6' assembly table on wheels that I could roll around the shop as needed. The top was 1 1/4" Melamine coated MDF. A little overkill but it was free.
  9. Don't lie!! I saw you in Port Credit by the rowing club with your bag of marshmallows in September!!!
  10. I'm not worried as I'm sure they will turn this nasty 2 game losing spree around tomorrow against the Blues. But if not tomorrow Saturday for sure.
  11. Or you can just buy Mike's when he puts it up for sale. I don't think he's ever held onto one for too long.
  12. Yeah, but there's no replacement for cubic inches. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p1iqeEg7ufw
  13. Best thing to do is to either heavily bulk shot (group most of the shot within 18" of the hook) or remove the float and bottom bounce (group all of your shot within 18" of the hook) to get your bait down to the fish.
  14. Toro are a good machine. As for size 28"-30" and 10-12 HP is a good all around size. When I lived back in Ontario I used a 10HP 30" maching to do my 200' driveway and it would take about 45 minutes to 1 1/2 hours depending on snow depth. When we get those big winter storms with the high winds it was not up to the task as the snow got hard like concrete in our wide open driveway. When that happened we just called up one of the neighbours with a tractor and blower combo. There's no way a small blower like that is going to handle 5' deep drifts that a 200# man can walk on without breaking through.

  16. Yeah it was nice to get out. Would have been better under different circumstances though. It's riding the sled and drilling holes from here on out for me now though. 1st ice fishing trip of the year is planned for this weekend. It was good to see you guys again. Take it easy and poke some chromers for me will ya?
  17. I love how NASCAR handled Kyle after Friday nights Bull. As for the chase I'll be happy with either Tony or Carl as they are both deserving.
  18. 20 years running Lowrance on my boat with no problems.
  19. I like the shot @ 21:15 of the buckets and buckets of roe.
  20. You don't want to watch the Leafs defence is standing around with their fingers up their They be getting blown out bad.
  21. That's why you wear 8 layers of clothing, so you can always sacrifice a shirt if needed.
  22. Not if you combine your mapping/GPS with a keen eye on your depth finder. A big freaking light doesn't hurt ether.
