Oh, and epic pictures! Your kiddos are cuties! You need to bring the boy to Blade so he can actually take a picture with Fisk.

only eat vegetarians!
eating carnivores stacks food chain contaminants.
That's why we eat deer and not coyotes.
Also, vegetarians turn vegetables into tasty meat. Less competition.

(full disclosure, I ALSO like to eat vegetables - good food is good food!)

Heard a lady on the radio the other day ferociously state that "Eating animals and animal products is the #1 cause of disease, illnesses, and death among humans."

Almost had a car accident lol.

There are indeed people who use what is essentially a powered bong to catch grit and dust and whatnot coming off the grinder. I haven't tried it myself but it makes sense. Which is worse, emptying a bucket of sludge every week or vacuuming up dry dust every week?

I think the choice is between sludge and fire. I'm waaaay in favor of sludge, given those options.
Here's my current ad-hoc arrangement. It works better than I expected. I'd still like to add some flashing under the belt path and in other spark-prone area.

actually it's more like that promotes chronic inflammation and immune imbalance, but whatev's.
(poorly raised meat, refined carbs, weird engineered 'food' like trans fats)

glad you didn't crash. :)

I would love to go! this year is going to be a little hard to convince the wife to travel. Our budget is not very friendly at this time because shes going to be done her maternity leave in July and we are no longer getting 'top up' on her benefits. We also made the decision that this was the year I'm going to get my Lasik surgery done ($4600). I do have some new camping gear that she said we need to use ;) I'm thinking I may be able to convince her to go to a fall gathering. We'll know more around that time if we can afford it.

I've got Dickel and coke. And I was just out for an hour. Woke up cause my buddy came out "to check" on me. He wanted a turn in the hammock.

I was wondering how long it would take for you to finally admit to putting Dickel down your throat. :D Sorry buddy, couldn't resist.

So, working in the shop tonight, got a long way on my new brass back among other things..... my son was kickin around with a mischievous look on his face. I didnt say anything to him but just kept a eye on him, he likes to be a prankster. After a couple of minutes, he walks out of the shop giggling.... a minute or so went by only for my nostrils to be violated in the worse way with the most God awful stinch there ever was. I figured he farted on me, but as it just got worse and worse, almost to the point of shop evacuation. I figured it had to be something more. It was.................thats right. STINK BOMB!. This means WAR!

Is it Spring time yet?...
Sure feels like it! Mid-60's and full sunshine!
Mowed the grass and lit up the grill! Chicken, tri-tip, potatoes, and asparagas. Mmmm....

No they sure dont.

But they are pretty ruthless to chickens. There is an entire cult of cows out to wipe the chicken population off the face of the earth.

You have probably seen them protesting in your town.... They are an evil looking bunch...

Right on, I've been using that same set-up right behind my grinder for years. As Bladite said, not as good as a proper dust collector but certainly worthwhile. You still need to wear a respirator of course, but it does help a lot with general cleanup.

However be warned... if you let the filter get too dirty and then aggressively hog off a bunch of steel, the sparks can suddenly turn the dusty filter into a huge glowing IR heater, fed by the fan pulling air through it :eek: So vacuum off the filter often. Don't ask me how I know. :o :D

in the immortal words of my shoppe teacher "metal shoppe and the wood shoppe don't mix"...

i'm pretty amused by videos of wood workers that have a floor of dust, and chips, and shavings, with an open wood stove and/or kerosene heaters and/or actual forge... plus they have dogs, kids, fans, and other hazards all mixed in. asking for a fire.

paul sellers has the coolest thing in his shoppe, as part of his dust collector: it's just a wide, floor intake, you brusha brusha the stuff into that. has a gate. super cool. i want one in my kitchen too (house has a whole house fan, need to fiddle with that)...

an actual dust collector for wood, is not very deer... it will come along the more serious i get. in the mean time, a shoppe vac or two, different hoses, adaptors.
