Honestly man. I'm a very handy guy around the house, But I wouldn't attempt that repair on my own. Had a coil snap last year, but didn't know it. Just thought the motor was acting up on the opener. So I pulled the cord to release the motor while the door was open. The old wooden garage door came down to fast that It would have cut my dog in half if she was 2 feet closer. Scary stuff man. Nearly took out my downstairs tenant.. I had a garage door company come an install it, I think it was $50-$75. While they where there they did a little service on the door, and replaced some hardware that blew off when the door crashed down, and re-aligned things. That old door must weight over 200lbs, if not more. Took two guys to lift it with out the spring as counter balance.

The exact same thing happened to my 1990 Corsica 5 years ago. Neighbor's kids had a party. Young girl still hungover from the night before. Totaled my rear passenger side door. Pushed my car 18". No note.. I grabbed my brother in-law, and we went over and knocked on the door. Found out the girls name after some discussions about what went on last night, and the fact that I new these kids parents where in Florida for a week.. They coughed over her phone number, and she agreed to pay for the damage. I got a quote from the most expensive place in town (Zenitec). Then we met up, reviewed the quote, I told her I would do some of the work my self to make it a little cheaper. She gave me $800 cash. Transmission blew on the car 3 weeks later, so I put the money toward the down payment on a new VW golf. If you can find out who actually did the damage, then I don't see any harm in going after them for the repair costs IMO.. Even if it's a beater.

A little easier morning at the boat launch eh! So once the ice comes, you gunna go ice fishing every Friday morn?

Down the road, I want to build a shop.. But that will likely take a decade or so to save up the cash... Thanks for all the comments to far everyone. Keep em comin.

I need some NF help. I've been waiting for these tent garage units to go on sale at CTC. They have one for 50% off, but there are mixed reviews. Anyone have this exact same one? I move into my new house on Wed, and need some extra storage for the boat and sled. I have linked the flyer below.

A very warm welcome QP! I look foward to some of your posts this winter

Good surfing there too!

Awesome Video man! That's got me pumped for the upcoming season for sure.

You could suddenly develop an allergy to cats..

Wish i had some good advice for you. I hate cats. Both my wife and I are allergic. If it wasn't for the kids, I'd say the OSPCA. Tough call.

Good to know guys! Looks like a nice simple design. Good work GBW

You sure that's legal? Just askin, not trying to start anything

X2 for Salus. Got an endurance class last year. Cat's pajamas! BUY CANADIAN!!!

I'm moving this morning, or I would have gone! I'd go tomorrow though!

That's the plan. Gotta a few people coming to help load up the storage unit. The more the merrier!

Thanks again for the outing kev!, It's always nice to learn some new tricks

I'm moving in a few weeks my self. Exciting times. I'm sure you'll find work soon too. But with no mortgage, whats the rush eh! And as far as the 250 bravo. I've been running one for years. Great little sled! They haven't changed much over the years. Here's a pic of my 89. They are under powered. And Slow! But they're light, and very reliable.

Don't be scared skip!

I'm no dishwasher repair man, but maybe there's something thats jammed in there, rubbing on a moving part. Broken peace of something you may have put in the dishwasher maybe? Or one of the likely several o-rings, or gaskets could be worn out. How old the unit?

Ya. my hand would have stayed well out of the water in that situation... Cool video!

O my god.. Nice tanks Bondy!

Nice pics man. I'm going to have a "back yard cam" in a few weeks. But I CAN hunt there

Glad things are working out for you So when is your Fishing Queen going to sign up for OFC?

Never herd of this fish before. Looks like one hell of a fighter though!

My wife would KILL me if I feed a live fish to our dog.. But I bet my dog would love me forever for it.. Glad you finally managed some fish!
