Still a good 40" on Kesagami as of yesterday!!

Ribbed for your pleasure... Surprised they're not noisy as hell on the highway!

Leah wants it for the lake!!

Be good practice for running a still though!!

Yep, if you have no power and just want a hot water bath.. go to the nearest TSC store and buy a cattle watering trough for a few hundred and dig a hole for a fire pit under one end. You'll certainly get sick and tired of draining and refilling what you're looking at with no filter system. Chlorine can only do so much.. even my proper tub with two pumps, filter, ozonator, etc can be a PITA to maintain when guests appear. I got to the point last year that I built an outdoor shower and nobody gets in without showering first, to remove suntan lotion, bug spray, cologne, perfume, etc or your tub becomes chemical soup.

99c after the $8 coupon that was right on the rack when the wife made me take her to Wally World today for some other stuff! After I toured the store I wished it was me with the concussion...

Also available at Walmart without the line ups and Home Hardware..

Thankfully there isn't 31,250 +/- rivets to drill for and set in it!

Seriously Dave... I built mine with my own two hands!

Wife has a concussion.. going on a week now, was amazed she brought me my bonus! Sounds like you have a good gig going on Cliff, happy for you!

I went to work today and my boss brought me out a bonus beer around 4:45 and said I could go home early!! .. if I made supper!

Hey JohnB... I'm not arguing with anyone, just stating the facts and regulations that were brought out a LONG time ago first in the RC world because people seem to lack common sense and many clubs wanted to use aerodromes to do their stuff and caused near miss conflicts. Hell even I allow RC's to fly on my own home aerodrome, but we NOTAM it closed while RC activities are in place. I have no issues with people flying drones if they keep them below 300 feet (as legally, other than take off and landing I'm supposed to be above 500)... and then of course keep them off obvious flight paths. Don't be out chasing airplanes with them, or cut across in front of me on short final or the landing slide, etc. If you want to video me taking off and landing then buy a goddamn aircraft radio, get on the correct frequency and talk to me and advise what you want to do. Then we're all on the same "channel" and "formation flying" to code!.

Geoff.. like I said, common sense. No reason those shots won't continue. There is nothing new in the regs as far as I can see from what was already there. As for enforcement, without a complaint nobody is going to come out to "enforce".. certainly not from Transport Canada. As for the channel in Temagami.. the OPP has already warned one local that did a "documentary" using a drone to fly all over town and he will be charged if it's repeated. Most of his work was "videoed" right above the landing path for Lakelands Airways Beaver that lands behind my Island in the back channel.

Of course it is JohnB.. but considering the same regulation applies to a licenced airport, and someone may not have landed there in the past 12 hours.. do you want to be the one that decides to go drone flying and suddenly a Cessna Citation comes down final and sucks it in an engine? It's all common sense.. but of course that life lesson went out the window decades ago and why we're the policed state that we are. Rick... I hit a seagull at 1000', the day I came back from Camp Jiggy Jiggy to be exact and as it appeared in the windshield (with me doing 105 MPH !) I told the wife to cover her face as it would have certainly come through the windshield. Luckily it veered and only hit the wings leading edge. A 1 lb, at best, bird that left a good dent and put it's beak right thru my wings skin. I'm trying not to be a dick about this... I'm just tired of people coming up to the lake and then flying their drones from campsites in the PPark. They fly all the way down the channel to Hwy 11.. browsing our docks and cottages snooping as they go along, with no care that a commercial operator is making 10+ take offs and landings a day (even chasing him along with the drones) and doing the same to me when I go in and out a few times a week. At least with the boats, yahoos in canoes that like to sit mid channel with toddlers to "see the airplane", etc we have a hope in hell of dodging them.. but not the "Me world" folks that think their drone has the right of way.

NOPE! 5 miles from an AERODROME! Does not have to be a licenced or registered Airport. Definition of an aerodrome.. any surface that has been landed on and/or taken off from. Same deal has applied to RC aircraft for decades!

Personally I wouldn't open that can of worms by calling ESA.. Hopefully someone can drop over and verify what you have and how to make it work correctly. Wish I was closer..

I'm at a loss Andrew why you need to get to the other side of the panel with the wire. Every second lug on each side is the other "side" of the buss. You just need a double pole breaker and two spaces to put it on the SAME side of the panel and how you get 220/240 from a panel. The absolute last thing you want is two single breakers from each side to get it, as you could trip one and not the other and the results would not be pretty. The panel in your garage should have never been run with two hot 110 singles. Considering you have 10/4 it should be pretty easy to correct it to use the red and black as your two live lines L1 and L2 to get 220/240 and the white for neutral (thus giving your 120 available for both a 4 line plug and single line breakers) and the ground.

Sorry Simon, but these aren't new laws.. they're just going to enforce what was already in place THANKGOD! I am sick and tired of trying to land and avoid these ever increasing toys trying to take my windshield or propeller out while landing in my own lake channel at the dock! Common sense long went out the window it seems. Flying a drone for pleasure in most places is a none issue, but bring same into an obvious aerodrome and seeing how close you can get... I'm going to track you down and plant it somewhere you won't like!

"Move over Hummingbird" ! LMAO... yah, like there's even the need to signal the lane change!

Sub contract Korber to do it and you take notes!

Don't sell yourself short.. cross into the USA in BC. Come back though Washington State, Hit Yellowstone, tour Montana, the Dakotas and then come back into Canada at Deluth! Gas will also be about 60% the cost below the border.

HA!

Mike was giving away free T shirts.. what more do you need! LOL

Definitely.. no argument there!

WOW.. how did I ever get to where I did in life. As far as I'm concerned even booze isn't "addictive", it's a HABITUAL choice. Leave it on the shelf or pour it in your glass. It's all mind over matter. Roll a joint, or don't roll a joint is no different than I need to get to work or I don't?
